MADISON HEIGHTS, Mich., Sept. 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Hungry Howie's, the originator of Flavored Crust® pizza, is bringing a taste of its Detroit roots to restaurants nationwide with the launch of its first-ever Detroit-Style Pizza.

Founded in the suburbs of Detroit in 1973, Hungry Howie's is proud to introduce its new Detroit-Style Pizza, available at participating locations nationwide. This authentic addition features thick, airy crust, crispy caramelized edges, cheese layered to the edge and sauce added as the final topping, just like the Detroit original.
