Dough Co. Pizza officially opens second store in Ankeny

Dough Co. Pizza has officially opened a new store in Ankeny. The fast-casual restaurant, which specializes in New York style thin crust pies, has opened its second location in the Plaza Shoppes at Prairie Trail. 

Dough Co. Pizza’s first restaurant opened in the summer of 2020 in the heart of the Drake neighborhood. Along with New York style pizza, it offers made-to-order sandwiches, wings, salads and more. Vegan and gluten free options are also available. 

The Ankeny restaurant offers seating for 50 people, Iowa craft beer on tap, and has an outdoor patio. 

"We’re excited to be bringing Dough Co. Pizza to another vibrant walkable neighborhood in the metro,” said Dough Co. Pizza co-owner, Alec Davis. "We’ve designed the brand new space to be welcoming for all while also reflecting our values and brand.” 

Approximately 20 new jobs have been created with the opening of the Ankeny store. Those interested in working at Dough Co. Pizza can submit an application on their website. 

Dough Co. Pizza is locally owned by the Orvis Horatio Group and is open seven days a week.
