Arby’s Hollywood Location Will Be Revived With A New Cuisine

A Hollywood landmark is temporarily changing cuisines. Gone is roast beef. In are Sicilian pizza slices.

The recently closed Arby’s on Hollywood’s Sunset Boulevard will soon become a temporary home to Prince Street Pizza. The chain announced that it will open a pop-up drive-thru at Sunset and Bronson Avenue on Aug. 8 and remain open until Halloween.

For now, the famed Arby’s neon cowboy hat will remain in place.

The pizzeria will serve Sicilian-style slices daily from 4 p.m. until 4 a.m. Customers can still park and dine at the cement picnic tables below the iconic sign, but there will be no indoor seating.

Prince Street Pizza CEO Lawrence Longo gave a statement to KTLA on the switch. “Even though we are bringing in a new concept to the space, we are not touching the sign, as we see it as part of history.”

The building will be painted white with green lettering.

Prince Street Pizza was founded in 2012 and has nine locations in Southern California, and has its flagship restaurant at 27 Prince Street in Manhattan.
