Cowboy Pizza Now Open at 201 Clinton
Pizza is replacing pizza at 201 Clinton Street. What was Va Bene just a few months ago has already given way to another doughy concept called Cowboy Pizza. And the principals behind this enterprise are familiar faces on the Lower East Side. Saddle up, pardner!

Pushcart Coffee (f/k/a Dora), the homey Seward Park cafe at 221 East Broadway, is running the show around the corner at Cowboy Pizza. Teaser website and Facebook page are already in place, describing the newest “frontier” eatery thusly:
This is a place for a meal you can afford, a place to sit, relax, even be nourished for a moment. Ok here. Burned in like a tattoo, or carved into a desk or tree, like a pair of initials with a heart around them, keeping those initials safe.
Meanwhile, the modest pizza parlor soft opened over the holiday weekend and is already serving the neighborhood. Friday evening (7 pm) is the official launch party at 201 Clinton.
City Slickers seemed fitting…
