The competition was fierce this year at the 17^th annual Addison by the Slice pizza contest. We sold a whopping 192 pizzas in three hours at the event and walked away with the award for Best Sausage Pizza. Our Addison, Illinois location opened this year at 114 W Lake St and it was our first year competing in pizza contest. Addison by the Slice is an event for National Night Out, which is an annual community-building campaign that helps make communities safer and stronger through police and community partnership.

Lou Malnati’s had a seemingly never-ending line during the event.

Addison by the Slice featured two live bands

On Sunday, January 21st, our Park Ridge carryout sampled pizzas during Notre Dame College Prep Athletic Club’s Third Annual AFC/NFC Championship Party.

Our Lakewood location served pizza during the Laughs at the Lake Comedy Show at Crystal Lake Brewing on Wednesday, October 18^th.

Laughs at the Lake is an annual fundraising event for the Boy Scouts of America in McHenry County.  Guests assembled to participate in a raffle and tried locally crafted beverages from Crystal Lake Brewing all while listening to bits by emerging Chicagoland comedians.

Philanthropy, deep dish, beer, and comedy?  This event is no joke!

On Thursday, September 14th, our Buffalo Grove restaurant sampled pizzas during a Make-A-Wish Foundation benefit performance hosted by The Buffalo Grove Singers.

All proceeds benefitted Make-A-Wish Illinois.
