    • They'll also serve sandwiches, salads and dessert.
    • The drink menu will have canned beer, wine, seltzer and cider.
    • Food will range between $10-$16, "with sandwiches and salads on the lower end and specialty pizzas on the higher end," per the press release.

    Zoom in: You might've tried Gravity Pizza at one of Camp North End's outdoor movie events .

    • Gravity Pizza owners Alex Osterhoudt and Amanda Wagner also own an outdoor movie and entertainment company, Aurora Star Lit Cinema , which has hosted a few of at Camp North End's Crossroads Cinema and Be Kind, Rewind events.

    Context: The couple started making sourdough bread and bagels, and eventually pizza, at home during the pandemic.

    • "We thought it would be a great enhancement to add pizza to Aurora Star Lit Cinema movie showings," Wagner said. "Alex quickly got to work renovating a retro trailer we could use to cook and serve from at events."

    Between the lines: Gravity Pizza isn't the only pandemic passion project turned brick-and-mortar at Camp North End. Dairy-free ice cream shop Seemingly Overzealous also began as a pandemic-era hobby that took off.

    Stop by: Gravity Pizza will be located at 1824 Statesville Ave. , next to Canteen . They're aiming for a mid-to-late October opening date.

    • To start, it'll open Wednesday-Thursday from 11am-10pm, Friday-Saturday 11am-11pm and Sundays 10am-9pm.
