A new Little Caesar’s pizza restaurant opened Dec. 15 in Oak Harbor.

“I’m excited to open a store in Oak Harbor,” said franchise owner Sebastian Brost, who added he has a number of other Little Caesar’s locations in Washington as well as a few in other states.

Pizza lovers can find the store in the Safeway shopping center, at 31595 Highway 20. It’s a family enterprise, with the franchisee’s brother and local resident Emmett Brost running the business.

Sebastian Brost said in a news release that the new restaurant boasts an expanded “Hot-n-Ready” menu. “This means you can come into our store and order from our Hot-n-Ready menu and the item will be ready when your order,” he said. “No need to call ahead. Just stop in, we have many items to choose from.”

Store hours are Sunday through Thursday, 11 a.m. to 10 p.m.; and Friday and Saturday, 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. Call 279-2769.
