It's National Cheese Pizza Day! (We swear, we didn't make this up haha)

In our opinion, you should always rate pizza by crust, cheese, and sauce - all very important ingrediants at Plum Tomato! We hope you rate us highly 🙏

Another round of vault specials are back for our 25th! 👏

​Hot Honey Tendies w/ dill pickle ranch? YES

Schnooter Schnacks with a sweet glaze?? YES YES

They're all so good, we might be addicted 😋

All of this comes during a very special milestone: celebrating 25 years of The Plum Tomato! 🥂✨

Our little buddy Grayson, age 7, came to shadow us today! In just two hours, he learned to make Fatti bread and garlic knots, fold pizza boxes, light the brick oven, cook pasta, and make the slice pies! If you had a slice today, it was made by Grayson!

Grayson's parents both worked at Plum Tomato and pizza is part of his history! He was so excited to work with us and we were, too ❤️ So proud of you Grayson!
