Mellow Mushroom Eatery In Round Rock To Close

ROUND ROCK, TX — Mellow Mushroom, an eatery serving pizza, sandwiches and salads, will close its doors by early November after more than three years of operation in Round Rock, restaurant officials wrote on social media.

In an Oct. 7 Facebook post, officials at the restaurant along 2600 North Interstate 35 reported their last day would be Nov. 5. No reason was given for the imminent closure.

"It is with heavy heart and much sadness that we announce to our Round Rock community that we will be closing our Mellow Mushroom doors at the end of the day on Nov. 5," officials wrote on Facebook. "We appreciate your patronage over the last three and a half years, we have come to regard many of you as family. We have loved being a part of the Round Rock community - thank you to everyone for supporting Mellow Mushroom. We will miss serving you!"

As a token of gratitude to its patrons, restaurant workers will offer "fun deals and specials" over the next month, officials wrote, urging patrons to keep an eye out for those offers on the eatery's Facebook page. "We invite you to please come in and enjoy our pizza one last time before we close," officials wrote.

Patrons also can hoist a drink to toast the soon-shuttered business as the restaurant also offers more than 30 beers on tap. The reason for the imminent closure was not disclosed.
