After a devastating fire in August 2024 that destroyed the House of Pizza and affected several nearby businesses, Clinton residents are excited about the restaurant’s upcoming reopening.

Clinton, South Carolina, is buzzing with excitement as beloved local eatery House of Pizza prepares to reopen its doors after a significant setback. Just a couple of months ago, on August 27, 2024, a catastrophic fire swept through the restaurant and several other businesses in downtown, leaving residents and business owners heartbroken. But now, the community can finally breathe a sigh of relief, as plans for a fresh start are underway!
That fateful day was nothing short of devastating for Clinton. The fire not only consumed the House of Pizza but also spread to three neighboring establishments. Firefighters bravely battled the inferno, which injured five individuals in total. Among them were two firefighters from Laurens County Fire who had a close call with falling bricks and ended up needing medical attention. Thankfully, everyone is safe, but it’s evident that the community felt the weight of this tragedy.
Clinton Fire Marshal Donya Langston shared insights on the fire’s catastrophic impact, stating that while the damage was largely contained to four structures, the emotional scars will linger. Mayor Randy Randall expressed the sorrow felt throughout the usually tight-knit community. A gathering was organized shortly after the incident to unite in prayer, underscoring the significance of the House of Pizza in the hearts of locals.
In a turn of good news, the co-owner of House of Pizza, Jazz Farhan, revealed plans for the restaurant to reopen in a new location at 112 Musgrove Street, just a few doors down from where it originally stood. Scheduled for a grand reopening in January 2025, this is a passionate leap toward getting back on its feet after the devastation. The restaurant was recently renovated, and it’s clear that Jazz and the team are dedicated to making House of Pizza an exciting destination once again.
Despite the challenges over the past few months, the spirit of Clinton is anything but broken. Residents have come together to support affected businesses, emphasizing the importance of community solidarity during tough times. The fire response was nothing short of heroic, with over 50 firefighters from 12 initial departments deploying to quell the flames, and an additional 30 units providing backup. This collective effort speaks volumes about the resilience and determination of this small town.
The cause of the fire is still under investigation, leaving many unanswered questions. City officials are asking anyone who may have information or footage of the incident to step forward, which could aid in addressing the remaining mysteries surrounding that tragic day. Videos and photos from locals are being sought for further analysis and to help ensure such events are prevented in the future.
As the community gears up for the terrific return of House of Pizza, there’s a buzz of anticipation in the air. Both fans of the restaurant and newcomers alike will soon be able to enjoy their favorite pizza and gather in a once-familiar setting that truly feels like home. The scars of the past are still fresh, but they serve as reminders of the strength and unity in Clinton. With each pizza served, House of Pizza will not just be feeding bellies but will also be nourishing the spirit of the community.
