Perham, Minn. (KPRW) – The Pizza Ranch in Detroit Lakes was granted a license to sell beer and wine when it opens in 2024.

During the Detroit Lakes city council meeting on Tuesday, Dec. 12, City Administrator Kelcey Klemm said the restaurant will be able to sell 3.2% alcohol by volume beer, as well as “strong beer” and wine.

After the meeting, Nick Price, owner and operator of the Perham Pizza Ranch and operations manager for the new Detroit Lakes location, said they will also offer a selection of seltzers.

The Detroit Lakes Pizza Ranch will be located at 1100 North Shore Drive in the old Spitfire location. 

Renovations are underway, Price said, and while the initial hope was to open in January, he said it is likely going to be mid-February when the community can enjoy great food and family entertainment at the venue. 

Price explained the delay was due to it taking longer than anticipated to get the necessary equipment for the restaurant.
