Locations
Shakespeare's Pizza has three locations in Columbia, Missouri. The original restaurant is located on the corner of 9th and Elm in the area known as the District (downtown Columbia), however it currently operates at the corner of 8th and elm due to a reconstruction project involving the building the restaurant leases. The second location opened in 2004 and is often referred to as Shakespeare's West and is located at the corner of West Broadway and Broadfield Drive, on the west side of the town. A third location (Shakespeare's South) opened on Peachtree Drive, off of Providence Road on the south side of Columbia in 2012. Frozen Shakespeare's Pizza is also available at grocery stores in Columbia, mid-Missouri, Kansas City and St. Louis.
