Mellow Mushroom opens in Spring, Texas

September 14, 2012

In the past month, Mellow Mushroom Pizza Bakers has announced new openings in Louisville, Ky., Cincinnati and Pooler, Ga. Now the chain is growing in the Lone Star State with a new location in Spring, Texas.

The newest Mellow opens Sept. 17 under the ownership of Todd and Kathy Molyneux.

"Spring is a community full of life. Great families, businesses, schools, churches, neighborhoods and more, which is why we knew Mellow Mushroom was a great fit for the area," the couple said in a joint statement.

This Mellow features designs from three artists from the Houston area who re-created a theme based around Led Zeppelin and the Goodyear Blimp, which used to have its home in Spring, Texas. Highlights include:

• Katharine Kearns, aka Katsola and a member of the "Sketchy Neighbors," is creating seven colorful and playful trading card-inspired pieces;
• Daniel Anguilu, whose work is featured on the streets of Houston , covered the walls with his free-flow style; and
• Mark Bradford, aka "Scrapdaddy," created a large overhead blimp scene as a tribute to what was once a community icon.

This location also features a covered patio, full-service bar, Beer Club with 36 drafts and members-only rewards, trivia nights, live music, bingo, karaoke events, sporting events and more.
