Lynn’s Chicago Pizza began with Lynn Humphrey and Brandon Bruner, Sr. trying to solve a problem. They couldn’t get pizza delivered to their Southside Chicago neighborhood so Brandon, a trained chef, began experimenting with making a Chicago Deep Dish pizza. Soon, they started making pizza for friends and family. The two started selling pizza at a nearby bar and the virtual pizzeria was born doing popups.
They ventured into a brick-and-mortar restaurant partnership but soon realized that they wanted to create their own vision in their Woodlawn neighborhood that was in need of restaurant options. Landing the location that the two had their eye on came with an application process. After great strides, Lynn’s Chicago Pizza opened serving up deep dish and Chicago thin crust pizza.
Lynn and Brandon opened more than a pizzeria. Lynn’s serves as a community hub with events and special nights for people to gather.
Their efforts have drawn local and national attention. Brandon and Lynn share how they’ve built momentum for their young business.
