ABOUT NEXT DOOR PIZZA

Next Door Pizza, located at 3385 SW Fascination Drive in The Shops at New Longview, is an independent pizza restaurant owned and operated by Lee’s Summit residents Patrick and Joy Cuezze.

The restaurant, located just South and West of 3rd Street and View High Drive, is adjacent to Longview Community College and very close to Longview Lake.
The sit- down restaurant features Chicago Style Pizza with sauce on the top, a traditional thin crust along with a gluten- free option. Besides pizza, the menu showcases salads, pasta and a variety of sandwiches. Longview Community College students can expect to find a lunch buffet with a hefty student discount. Free soft pretzel sticks are given to each table to help pass the time while the massive 1.5+ pound pies cook in the stone-hearthed ovens. The recipes themselves are completely original and are the result of Patrick cooking over 700 pizzas in his home during the past year. Daily, Patrick himself makes all of the dough in-house.

Wondering about the décor?

Patrick and his wife, Joy, distributed dozens of antique doors to neighbors and local businesses. As neighbors decorate and return the doors (in exchange for a pizza and immortality), they have used them in the architecture and as decorations on the wall. Currently, the dining room seats about 70 with future plans to expand in the Summer of 2010. The bar seats 20, has 5 hi-def televisions, and a unique variety of beers on tap from brewers like Boulevard, Founders, Bear Republic, Left Hand, Lagunitas, Southern Tier and Anchor Steam.

Next Door is proud to offer traditional loyalty programs by e-mail and through social networking sites like Twitter and Facebook. They also feature a Beer Club which permits patrons to bring their own mugs to store at the restaurant between visits. Finally, the GreenPizza program allows environmentally conscious patrons to purchase a reusable pizza box that can be exchanged for a clean one with every purchase – a unique offering in the KC metro area. Members of the GreenPizza program also receive a discount for walking to the restaurant.
