Old Chicago Pizza & Taproom is opening its newest location in Pueblo, Colorado, at 3204 North Elizabeth St. The new restaurant, scheduled to open on Oct. 26, will be the city's first location and will create approximately 120 jobs for the area, according to a company press release.

To celebrate the upcoming opening, the chain will give "Pizza For a Year" booklets to the first 100 people in line on Oct. 26. The restaurant also has partnered with Posada, a community-based nonprofit organization that provides shelter, supportive services and housing to homeless families, unaccompanied youth and single individuals, and will donate $1 from every Chicago 7 specialty pizza ordered on Oct. 26 through Nov. 6 to the organization, as well as proceeds from Old Chicago's preview events on Oct. 23-25.

"We're so excited to introduce everyone in Pueblo to our freshly hand-made pizza, diverse menu of world-class craft beers and quality, handcrafted taproom classics," said Rich Tuscher, general manager of Old Chicago Pizza & Taproom in Pueblo. "Our commitment to community extends beyond the dining room as we join forces with Posada to raise funds for local families in need. We look forward to serving the city of Pueblo for many years to come."

To signify Old Chicago's new location in Pueblo, the restaurant has also partnered with DiSanti Farms, a fresh fruit and vegetable farm located on the St. Charles Mesa in Pueblo, to offer roasted chilies as a pizza topping. Additionally, the restaurant will feature the "DiSanti Classic" as a permanent menu item for guests to order all year-round, which is Old Chicago's Classic Pizza topped with roasted chilies.
