Blaze Pizza To Open Disney Springs Location

Blaze Fast-Fire'd Pizza will be one of the new fast-casual eateries moving into Disney Springs. Blaze Pizza is earning a stellar reputation for serving its Guests with custom-built artisanal pizzas, freshly made gourmet salads, blood orange lemonade and s'more pies.

Known as a modern day "pizza joint" Guests will order at an interactive assembly-line (inspired by co-founders Elise and Rick Wetzel's lunch at Chipotle) where they can choose from over 40 fresh, artisanal toppings to create their perfect pie - all for one price. While we don't have many details from Disney as to what exactly the Disney Springs location will feature, we did head on over to the Blaze Pizza website to get an idea of what we can expect.

Take A Look At The Topping Line-up

  • Meats: applewood bacon * crumbled meatballs * grilled chicken * italian sausage * pepperoni * salame * smoked ham

  • Veggies: artichokes * arugula * bell peppers * cherry tomatoes * chopped garlic * fresh basil * jalapenos * mushrooms * olives * pepperonicini * pineapple * red onions * red peppers * sauteed onion * spinach * zucchini

  • Cheeses: goat * gorgonzola * mozzarella * ovalini mozzarella * parmesan * ricotta * vegan cheese (ok, there is an additional charge for this one)

  • Sauces: classic red sauce * spicy red sauce * white cream sauce * pesto drizzle * bbq drizzle * olive oil drizzle



Countless Combinations To Create The Perfect SliceCountless Combinations To Create The Perfect Slice


The generously sized, 11-inch pizzas are "fast-fired" in a blazing hot open-flame oven and ready to enjoy in just 180 seconds. That's right, your pizza cooks in just 3 minutes. The secret is in the stone hearth oven, which cooks at a super high temperature to make the dough rise and cause though crisp delicious little bubbles. Unlike regular gas fired pizza ovens that cook at around 200,000 BTUs, the ovens at Blaze are putting out 360,000 BTUs of pure cooking power.

Blaze Fast-Fire'd Pizza's website notes that they offer a gluten free crust as an option, however, they also note that the Pizza crafters "work with wheat-based flour, and do not use a separate oven or press for our gluten-free dough. If you are highly sensitive to gluten, please consider your dining choices carefully." Dining with food allergies and intolerances is always a concern, and this company at least gives a nod to understanding that diners need information with a dietary needs guide listed on their website here.

As with Sprinkles, which we reported on last week, we don't yet have an opening date for the new pizza place. However the Disney Springs construstion should be completed sometime in 2016, so keep your eyes open for more information on when you'll be able to stop by Blaze Fast-Fire'd Pizza.

I'm always down for a slice of pizza, so I'm thrilled to see Disney adding another spot to grab a pie. With Blaze being all about customization, I'm sure to find a winner. So what do you think about Blaze Fast-Fire'd Pizza? Have you been to one of their other locations yet? Leave a comment and let us know!

this is much better. When? Now all I would like to be able to get at Disney Springs is a hot dog. I'm tired of herring people critizing Disney Springs as just for wealth people. And it seems I hear it the most from cast members. Personally I think Disney Springs is an exciting place to go. It reminds me a lot of what downtown CHGO used to be. But please a hot dog. I'll push the cart.

I'm excited about the new things at Disney Springs too Mike. I don't live someplace that I have a shopping center like this one will be, so to me it's really a lot of fun. We weren't given an opening date for the restaurant, but it should be sometime in the next year.
