TL;DR

Pita Pit at Auburn University has reopened under new ownership after a complete renovation. New owners Jack Brighenti and Cody Ashworth have introduced a new menu and modernized decor.

In just ten days, the Pita Pit at Auburn University got a complete makeover, inside and out.

Decor wasn't the only thing that got an upgrade; Brighenti and Ashworth also added exciting new menu items. They're excited to introduce the Tiger Club, a turkey, bacon and avocado pita, to the Auburn University community. Also, new pita toppings will include avocado slices, roasted red pepper hummus, Pico de Gallo, cilantro and pepper jack cheese.

The location will be open until 3 a.m. on weekdays and 4 a.

m. on weekends to provide students with healthy, late-night options."We know a lot of students will be up pretty late at night studying, so we want to be able to feed them," Brighenti said in his interview the Opelika-Auburn News.
