Mayor Jay Gillian, Ocean City Regional Chamber of Commerce Executive Director Michele Gillian and Philly Pretzel Factory Co-Founder and CEO Dan DiZio — who was recently featured on the CBS hit television series "Undercover Boss" — will assist in the ribbon-cutting ceremony.
The new franchise is located in front of Gillian's Wonderland Pier at Sixth Street and Boardwalk — the first (or last) food outlet, depending on which way you're walking, on the downtown stretch of Boardwalk between Sixth and 14th streets. It takes the place of the former Bryn and Dane's, which served healthy fast foods.
The Pretzel Factory features soft pretzel twists, cinnamon-sugar pretzel twists, pretzel dogs (a Dietz and Watson frank wrapped in a pretzel), frozen lemonade, iced tea and Coca-Cola products.
