The national franchise 1000 Degrees Pizza plans to open its newest eatery in Spring this winter. Owner John Bock said the restaurant, located in the Birnham Woods Marketplace at 4057 Riley Fuzzel Road, Ste. 100, Spring, hopes to hold a soft opening in December and is targeting a Jan. 2 launch. Bock said the pizzeria will offer free 10-inch pizzas for all customers on the day of its grand opening. 1000 Degrees offers a range of Neapolitan and Roman-style pizzas available in both build-your-own and signature styles, in addition to appetizers, such as fire-roasted chicken wings and breadsticks. www.1000degreespizza.com
