LowBrow Pizza & Beer, the Naples wood-fired pizza spot known for its charred, chewy crusts and seven Best Pizza wins, is building a second location in Bonita Springs. The new restaurant will fill nearly 5,000 square feet at Midtown at Bonita, 13000 Bonita Beach Road SE, and will feature a garage-door bar, a glass façade and a 10-foot rock hand sculpture on the patio.
LowBrow currently operates at 3148 Tamiami Trail E. in Naples, and as reported by Yahoo, the restaurant's owner is on the cusp of opening his second location at the Bonita Springs development. The quoted source describes the Bonita Springs build as an indoor/outdoor space with a garage-door bar, patio seating and a glass façade, alongside themed booths — including one inspired by the Super Nintendo gaming system — and that 10-foot rock hand sculpture positioned out on the patio.
Same Pies, New Patio
Diners expecting a totally different menu in Bonita Springs can relax. The same report quotes the restaurant as saying the new location's offerings will be about 98 percent identical to what's served in Naples, with each location getting one or two unique items of its own. LowBrow's Naples menu includes the Maggie pizza, the Porker — topped with red sauce, mozzarella, barbecue pork, pork belly, pineapple, jalapeño, pickled red onion and cotija — and the Broccoli Rob, made with red sauce, mozzarella, broccoli raab, roasted garlic, sausage and lemon crumbs, per the WhatNow report on the expansion.
LowBrow describes its kitchen as a scratch kitchen, making its dough with naturally leavened dough, flour, salt, water and its own mother starter, according to LowBrow Pizza & Beer's own site. That same source credits the restaurant as a seven-time Best Pizza winner in Naples and notes it also took home 2026 honors for Best Pizza and Best Wings in Collier County.
Construction Progress and a Timing Question
On the ground, work is visibly moving forward. Construction on LowBrow Pizza's Midtown at Bonita location is well underway, according to the News-Press, which also describes the restaurant as coming to the development in late 2026.
Exactly when the doors will open depends on which source you check. The restaurant is targeting the first couple of weeks of December 2026 to open, per the Yahoo report — but LowBrow's own website lists the Bonita opening as planned for fall 2026, and the News-Press separately frames the arrival as late 2026. No single confirmed opening date has been established across these accounts.
A Growing Corner of Bonita Springs
LowBrow's arrival fits into a bigger build-out at Midtown at Bonita, a 68-acre mixed-use development under construction in Lee County, according to the Business Observer. The outlet reports the center has reached about 75 percent occupancy, with retail, restaurants, residences, fitness and hospitality uses planned once it's finished.
The project is approved for 315,000 square feet of commercial space, though the Business Observer's earlier reporting notes it is being intentionally scaled to roughly 175,000 to 200,000 square feet. That same report indicated buildouts across the development were expected to begin in the coming weeks, with the first openings anticipated by the end of the year — timing that lines up with LowBrow's own push toward a late-2026 debut.
