"Being part of the greater Northeast Ohio community, with stores in Lakewood, Cleveland Heights, and now Fairlawn, has always been a priority for us, and we look forward to serving high-quality, delicious pizzas to our neighbors here," said David Igel, Dewey's Pizza's operating partner, in a written announcement.

It features craft beers from local breweries including Great Lakes Brewing Company, Thirsty Dog Brewing Company, Sibling Revelry Brewing, and Fat Heads Brewery.
