College life in Chicago just got a little sweeter—and more affordable. Aurelio's Pizza has rolled out two announcements that'll have students and dessert lovers rethinking their next meal out.
Starting now, college students can save 25 percent on their orders. It's a straightforward discount that acknowledges what anyone who's been through college knows: budgets are tight, and a good meal shouldn't be a luxury.
A New Take on Tradition
Aurelio's Pizza has built its reputation on Italian-American classics—pizza done right, Italian beef that hits the spot, and the kind of food that brings families together. Now they're adding something unexpected to the menu: dessert pizza.
The new offering gives diners a reason to linger after the main course. While Aurelio's hasn't abandoned what made them a Chicago staple, they're showing that tradition and creativity can coexist on the same menu.
For families looking for a complete dining experience, this addition changes the equation. Instead of stopping for ice cream on the way home, everything happens under one roof.
Why This Matters for Students
The 25 percent discount isn't just a marketing gimmick. For students managing meal plans, part-time job paychecks, and study group dinners, it's real money back in their pockets. A group of four can eat for the price of three. That pizza study session becomes more feasible when the bill doesn't sting quite as much.
Aurelio's has locations throughout the Chicago area, including their spot at 1212 S Michigan Ave—convenient for students in the South Loop and nearby campuses.
Community Roots Run Deep
This restaurant chain has always focused on serving families and the local community. The student discount and dessert pizza launch reflect that same philosophy: meet people where they are, give them what they want, and make the experience memorable.
Whether you're a pizza lover who's been ordering from Aurelio's for years or a newcomer curious about what makes them different, these updates offer fresh reasons to visit.
The dessert pizza appeals to anyone with a sweet tooth. The student discount speaks directly to a demographic that values quality food but needs to watch every dollar. Both moves show a business paying attention to what its customers actually want.
