Utah-born soda shop to open Las Vegas location

Updated June 7, 2024 - 6:49 pm

Does the double “i” make it extra fizzy?

Fiiz Drinks, the beverage chain inspired by classic soda fountain shops, is celebrating the grand opening of its Las Vegas location on Friday.

The party takes place from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. at 2625 S. Decatur Blvd., just south of West Sahara Avenue, with free select 16-ounce or 24-ounce drinks.

The Fiiz menu features Mountain Dew, Dr Pepper, Sprite, Coke, Pepsi, root beer, Italian soda and Monster in hundreds of flavor combinations, plus noncarbonated drinks, hot chocolate flavor combinations, and other items such as pretzels, pretzel bites and popcorn.

Fiiz, which began in Utah a decade ago, has grown to almost 70 locations in the U.S., mainly in the Southwest. Fiiz also has two shops in Elko. Fiiz has had at least one store in Las Vegas, on West Flamingo Road, but that closed several years ago.
