Urban Pizza's Bangor Shop Closes Again so Sister Blaze Locations Keep Licenses
According to the post, the ownership group — which also operates several Blaze restaurants in Bangor, Bar Harbor and Blue Hill — appears to have exceeded that cap and is closing Urban Pizza so its other locations retain their licenses. The Urban Pizza brand is staying in Maine: a new outlet is planned for Bar Harbor, inside a building behind Blaze that already carries a liquor license.
