Since 1986

Forty Years,
One Story

Our building was a plain black structure back then. Forty years later it's still the same building — just with a mural, a couple of awards, and a family that's stuck with it the whole way.

"A great place for families and young people to congregate."

1986

Danny Boy Pizza

It all started in 1986, when we were known as Danny Boy Pizza. We were younger then, with young children, and we had a dream: a family-owned business that would give Amherst families and young people a place to congregate and enjoy a great meal together.

1991

Our Mural

Amherst artist David Pavlak painted an old-style town mural on the building's east side using ordinary latex paint. All the storefronts you see are painted on plain brick — there are only a couple of real doors in there.

1991

Community Enhancement Award

That year, Amherst City Council gave us the first-ever Community Enhancement Award — "for their efforts to help beautify the community."

1991 onward

Our Growth

We became Olde Town Pizza House and put our boys' names on the menu — Cody's Monster Meal, Anthony's Choice — when they were three and four years old. Maxwell and Dillon came along a few years later.

Ongoing

Our Involvement in the Community

We've coached and sponsored summer baseball teams for years, stayed involved with church and civic groups, and helped Steele High School's hockey team fundraise with spaghetti dinners.

2003

Our Bicentennial Logo

Official barn painter Scott Hagan painted Ohio's Bicentennial logo on our building's west side — with special permission from the state, since we're not a barn. It made us one of only three non-barn locations in Ohio to display it.

Today

Our Dreams Continue

We're most proud of becoming part of this community — and that our staff has become part of the Olde Town Pizza House family too.
