Hungry Howie’s pizzeria has permanently closed its doors Wednesday, April 29.

The pizzeria has been at 207 N. Clarke Road Ocoee, since 2014, serving the community for 12 years.

Now, another pizzeria is set to move in.

Stoner’s Pizza Joint has acquired eight units in Orlando to expand its businesses.

Founded in 2013, it focuses on fresh ingredients, unique flavors and customer service.

The menu includes different-sized pizzas, calzones, Stromboli, bents, wings, bowls, salads and more.

Though an official opening date has not yet been released, this pizzeria is estimated to open during the summer, alongside another acquired location at 4781 S. Orange Ave., Orlando.
