About this shop

The same 1965 pizza, on the south side

If you live in south Lakeland, anywhere along the South Florida Ave corridor in 33813, you don’t have to cross town for a J. Burns’ pie. Our Maryoma Plaza shop bakes the same thin, crispy, square-cut pizza the original has made since 1965, from the same dough made specially for us, cut into the same squares people around here grew up on.

This shop is also where a lot of our gluten-free guests land. Both of our gluten-free crusts, rice flour in 10″ and 14″ and cauliflower in 10″, are made for people with celiac disease or gluten intolerance, so a family where one person eats gluten-free can finally order from one pizza shop. Add fresh subs on 9-inch rolls and fresh salads, and lunch on the south side is handled.

Once a month this shop hosts Pizza With a Purpose: drop your receipt in the bucket at the register and 20% of the proceeds goes to the Breast Cancer Foundation of Central Florida.

Our story since 1965

Same menu, all three shops

14-inch gluten-free rice flour crust pizza

Celiac-friendly every day

Real gluten-free pizza in Lakeland

Two gluten-free crusts, rice flour in 10″ and 14″, and cauliflower in 10″, prepared at a dedicated gluten-free station separate from the regular dough. That is what lets the South Florida Ave shop serve guests with celiac disease, not just guests avoiding gluten by choice. Nearly any topping works, and just about anything else on the menu can be converted too.
