Newk’s

We tried a new restaurant yesterday down in Lone Tree, about an hour south of us. We met with my friend Neil at Newk’s and enjoyed some pizza and salad together while catching up. We enjoyed their special pizza deal – 2 pizzas and a salad. We all shared a Caesar salad, a white BBQ chicken pizza and a Margharita pizza.

Newk’s was founded in 2004, in Oxford, Mississippi, and now has locations in various states across the country. It has been a franchised organization since 2005. In 2008, it was voted one of the best “Top 10 New Restaurant Concepts” by Restaurant Chains Magazine. By 2009 it was voted “Top 5000 Fastest Growing Companies.” by Inc. Magazine’s. With all this high praise and fast growth, Newk’s must be doing something right.

Newk’s kitchen philosophy is that “each and every bite of our flavorful creations should be a moment of delight, bursting with exceptional taste and quality. This motto is a friendly invitation into our home, where we pour heart into our culinary creations, serve up joy in generous portions, and delight in the smiles of satisfied guests. In our kitchens, ‘extra’ is the secret ingredient that makes every Newk’s meal special”.

It was almost warm enough to enjoy the outside patio, but not quite. Next time.

Newk’s is one of the new fast/casual types of restaurants, where you order as soon as you walk in and they bring your order to your table when it is ready.

It is a big, spacious restaurant that can seat a lot of people.

The food was tasty, the restaurant was very clean and welcoming and the servers all were very friendly with a great attitude. It was a fun and delicious lunch.

We went to the Newk’s in Lone Tree. We had never heard of it before, so I am not sure if there are any other locations in Colorado. Their address is 10012 Commons, Ste 100, Lone Tree CO 80124. Just walk in order what you like. Within a few minutes, it will be delivered to your table.

Have a great day, spend it with friends, and make everyday great. Stay safe and stay well. ‘Til next time.

  1. There’s a great story about the original founder/co-founder. When Tam and I first tried Newk’s, we sat down and read a story about Lori, and it really hit home. Tam had that mean-ol’ cancer scare, so it really resonated with us. https://newks.com/newks-cares/. I probably should have mentioned this during a marathon lunch talk?!? OMG, that was so good to sit down with you and Larry! And then, to find out we both went to Town & Country! WOW!

    1. It was definitely a fun lunch date. We need to do that more often. That was too funny to find out we both went to Town & Country. 🙂 That is a nice story and tribute to Lori. Thanks for sharing.
