Mellow Mushroom Expanding to Herndon

Groovy pizza joint Mellow Mushroom is expanding to Herndon. The restaurant is opening up a location at 1030 Elden Street. They're currently hiring.

Franchise owner Pooja Mehta, who also operates the Adams Morgan location, says they are targeting a July 22 opening date. The restaurant is a large one, at almost 7,000 square feet. The restaurant owners took over an old Fuddruckers location, and are planning 244 seats at the restaurant. There's an elevated open-air terrace as well as events space for private parties and corporate meetings. The franchisees are on the lookout for additional locations, but don't have a particular area in mind at the moment.
