Two years ago, Chris and Angela Woodbeck received the call that many operators have feared. Their beloved pizzeria, Mangia Macrina’s in New Hartford, New York was on fire. Worse, when they arrived, they found out it was arson.
It has been a long road back as the couple are about to reopen the pizzeria in a new location in Utica, New York. They share their story of bringing their business back, the obstacles they’ve faced and the transition.
Mangia Macrina’s also has a location in Little Falls, New York as well as operating a food truck that has been instrumental in entering their new market of Utica.
