Pizza might not just be the breakfast of college students anymore. Nation's Restaurant News reports that five percent of chain and independent eateries now offer some kind of pizza-like item adapted for mornings – and breakfast pizza appears on 18 percent more menus than five years ago.
Two big chains are already on board: Sbarro has trotted out a breakfast pizza with bacon, sausage, eggs and mozzarella; and BJ’s has a pie topped with mozzarella, marinara sauce, and an omelet of bacon, ham and sausage. Several smaller chains are also adapting pizza for the morning.
The Domino's location near the University of Dayton in Ohio has offered breakfast pizzas for three years – though the chain claims they have no plans for any of its other nearly-5000 locations to introduce the item.
