Mountain Mike’s Pizza Launches Build-Your-Own Calzones

September 02, 2026 // Franchising.com // IRVINE, Calif. – Mountain Mike’s Pizza is debuting Calzones. Available from September 1 to December 31, the new Build-Your-Own Calzones give guests another way to enjoy Mountain Mike’s signature flavors in a delicious and customizable handheld format.

“Calzones are an exciting new addition to the Mountain Mike’s menu, delivering everything our guests love about the brand in a bold new way,” said Jim Metevier, CEO of Mountain Mike’s Pizza. “We’re known for fresh-made dough, premium ingredients and generous portions, and our new Calzones bring all of that together in a craveable, customizable offering that’s packed with flavor and unmistakably Mountain Mike’s. It’s a fresh way to experience the quality and abundance our guests have come to expect from us.”

Made with Mountain Mike’s signature dough and topped with garlic butter spread, each calzone is folded around melted mozzarella cheese and up to two (2) guest-selected toppings before being baked to golden perfection. At 10 inches, the calzone is served with savory dipping sauce, creating a personal-sized meal option for lunch, dinner or any on-the-go occasion. Whether enjoyed individually or shared, guests can build their own calzone with favorites such as crispy, curly pepperoni, fresh green bell peppers, artichoke hearts, spicy jalapeños and more. The flavor possibilities are endless.

“Calzones open up new occasions for guests to enjoy Mountain Mike’s, whether it’s a quick lunch, a late-night snack, an easy dinner for one or a satisfying meal on the go,” said Carol DeNembo, Chief Marketing Officer of Mountain Mike’s Pizza. “It’s an exciting way for us to meet more cravings, more occasions and ultimately give guests more reasons to choose Mountain Mike’s.”

One bite into a cheesy slice of pizza from Mountain Mike’s takes you back to childhood, providing a sense of nostalgia for when pizzas were handmade with the freshest and finest ingredients and shared around the table with family and friends. The combination of craveable innovation, quality craftsmanship and memorable dine-in experiences is what continues to make Mountain Mike’s truly unique. From its crispy, curly pepperoni, 100% whole milk mozzarella cheese and a variety of fan-favorite signature pizzas, Mountain Mike’s has something to satisfy every taste. Whether it’s dine-in, carryout or its own in-house delivery, guests can always count on Mountain Mike’s to ensure quality, freshness, flavor and value.
