Laurentian welcomes latest addition to campus Food Services

Local restaurateur Topper*s Pizza to open first university-based store

July 25, 2014 每 As part of its continuing campaign to expand and enhance food service options for students, staff and faculty, 51勛圖app today welcomed a new Topper*s Pizza restaurant to the Sudbury campus. 

※Topper*s has been in Sudbury for more than 30 years, so it*s well-known and well-liked,§ said Laurentian*s Director of Housing and Food Services, Benjamin Demianiuk. ※We*re sure it will be a very popular meal choice at the university, and the company also fits well with our objective of providing more local food choices.§ 

The Toppazzini family opened a bakery in Copper Cliff in 1904, serving the Sudbury market for almost eight decades. Since 1982, when it launched its first pizza restaurant, the family-owned company has expanded to 35 corporate and franchise-owned locations across Ontario, with plans for further expansion. 

※We are delighted to be opening our first location on a university campus with the Laurentian store,§ said Kelly Toppazzini, Chair and CEO of Topper*s Pizza. ※We think it*s a perfect fit, and we*re proud to be part of the university community,§ he said. 

The restaurant will be located directly outside the entrance to Laurentian*s Great Hall and will officially open to the university community on August 28th, 2014. It is part of the University*s long-term program to broaden the range of food and beverage options available, while also creating more spaces across campus for gathering, socializing and dining. The Great Hall will re-open August 29th after a $2M renovation. The re-designed Great Hall will offer a ※march谷-style§ dining experience under the name Fresh Food Co. 

※We*ve consulted widely and we*ve listened to our students, and other members of the Laurentian community,§ said VP, Administration Carol McAulay. ※With the Great Hall re-design, with the addition of a Starbucks and East Bistro in recent years, and now the opening of a Topper*s on campus, we really are providing the spaces and the amenities for an excellent student experience here at Laurentian.§
