Mountain Mike’s Pizza, the 300-plus-location chain based in California, just opened its second store in Bellevue, Wisconsin. The new storefront is the chain’s second in Wisconsin—and only its second overall in the entire Midwest. 

According to the brand, its second location in Wisconsin is a sign of things to come. The upcoming Bellevue restaurant will be owned and operated by Mountain Mike’s franchisees Ranbir Shergill and Jasmeet Shergill, who have exclusive rights to develop at least two additional Mountain Mike’s locations in the Green Bay region, along with an additional three units in Milwaukee.

“As Mountain Mike’s begins its expansion across Wisconsin, we’re proud to contribute to the brand’s growing presence as a beloved community destination for delicious crispy, curly pepperoni pizza and family-friendly gatherings,” said Jasmeet Shergill. “Mountain Mike’s Pizza serves menu items that are second-to-none when it comes to quality and taste, and we have watched as more communities continue to fall in love with Mountain Mike’s, which is why we are delighted to help grow the brand in the Midwest.”

The new restaurant in Bellevue has a 2,780-square-foot buildout. Mountain Mike’s is known for its family-friendly offerings, as well as big-screen TVs “bound [to make it] a go-to destination for sports fans.” 

“The Bellevue restaurant will also include an all-you-can-eat pizza and salad bar, weekday lunch buffet, domestic and craft beer on tap, a varied wine selection, kids’ arcade area and complimentary Wi-Fi,” a press release from the brand stated. “Clearly, there will be something for everyone at Mountain Mike’s in Bellevue, ensuring it will quickly become an ideal spot for guests of all ages, team parties, family get-togethers, office gatherings and group fundraising events alike.” 

“Opening our second Wisconsin location in Bellevue this spring marks another milestone in Mountain Mike’s journey of bringing guests our legendary, Mountain-sized pizzas,” said Jim Metevier, CEO of Mountain Mike’s Pizza. “With every new location, we strengthen our reputation as the go-to destination for celebrating life’s special moments, from team gatherings to family dinners, and we’re excited to keep scaling new peaks as we expand further into the Midwest.”
