Bobbi’s is a new fast-casual restaurant in New Haven introducing Detroit-ish style pizza to the city’s renowned pizza scene. Founded by partners Ankit Chellani (Sherkaan) and Bryan Burke (executive chef and longtime collaborator), Bobbi’s brings a playful, creative twist to the traditional Detroit-style square pie — featuring airy-yet-crispy crusts, caramelized cheese edges, and bold toppings ranging from classics to adventurous flavors like Butter Chicken Pizza.
The menu goes beyond pizza with smashburgers, wings, salads, fries, desserts, and a beverage program that includes beer, wine, ready-to-drink cocktails, and local sodas. Designed to be approachable, energetic, and flexible, Bobbi’s offers counter service for dine-in, grab-and-go, or delivery, making it a go-to spot for students, locals, and foodies alike.
The brand identity is cheeky, inviting, and fun, setting it apart from traditional New Haven apizza shops. With an emphasis on high-quality ingredients, creativity, and community, Bobbi’s adds something fresh to the city’s food culture — not competing with apizza, but expanding New Haven’s pizza story in a bold new direction.
