Tricycle Pizza's New Friend

Posted on September 18th, 2018 by Tricycle Pizza

Tricycle Pizza has a new fan - we named her Mozzy. This lovely bird found a slice of our pepperoni one day and since then she arrives everyday as soon as we do and leaves when we close. She was probably addicted at first bite - she throws a fit when we give her bird food.

Tricycle Pizza is located at 899 Lighthouse Avenue in Monterey. Come and try a handmade, wood-fired pizza - we're now beloved by the Cooking Channel's Beach Bites with Katie Lee and multiple species of New Monterey residents.
