Not sure about any other pizza king but the one on St. Joe and Franklin is pretty damn good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think any two Pizza Kings are the same, there are a few up here in God's country and they are all drastically different, but usually solid. indypharmd 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here is the story on why a lot of the Pizza Kings are different from each other. - Pizza King got its start as a small business in 1956. Wendell Swartz and his brother Bob opened the first location in Lafayette, Ind., where they developed the signature crust, sauce and toppings the restaurant is still known for today. But, after just a year, Wendell's brother decided he wanted to use a different business model. "So what they did was they divided the state," says Edward Bogan, growth and logistics director for Pizza King Inc. "Wendell took three-quarters of the state, and then his brother ended up getting roughly a quarter of it." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aoberlin Posted April 3, 2023 Share Posted April 3, 2023 I would like to state that I worked at a Pizza King from the ages 16 - 21 and I can make a mean pie. Got some the other day. Nothing like a Royal Feast dipped in their cheese sauce. Delivering pizzas might have been my best job ever. BrodyHardcastle 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would call your order in and plan on 30 to 45 minutes wait time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GenHeavyHandz Posted April 4, 2023 Share Posted April 4, 2023 (edited) Does Evansville have a Portillo’s and or Popeye’s: asking for a friend?? Are there any Aviaries or bird sanctuaries. My owls, hawks, osprey, and falcons will need a place to stay. Can’t leave’em in Elkhart. Although I bet the vermin count is high here. The last time I went to Evansville I kept saying Zirklebach to everyone I saw. They knew Gabe but didn’t know why I kept saying Zirklebach. They didn’t know but I was 17 and only knew German, French and Swahili: No Evansvillese. So I thought if I said Zirklebach and nodded and tossed in a Weinzaple they would decipher what I was trying to convey. God knows I couldn’t cut thru the dialects. I thought I was in West Virginia for a few hours. Side note. I went to Manchester College. I ate more Pizza King than I’d like to admit over those 4 and a 1/2 years. Haven’t had a slice since 1996. That stuff should be handled by Hazmat.

Not that I'm promoting Evansville, but on a cool sidenote, the famous naturalist John James Audobon lived across the River from Evansville in Henderson, KY. He enjoyed eploring the woods in KY and Indiana searching for birds and made many sketches and paintings of birds in the area. They even have a state park named after him. Maybe you're birds can hang out there while you enjoy wrestling next year. GenHeavyHandz 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One on 1st Ave and one in Paradise city(Newburgh) Now, give yourself atleast 30-45 for service while hoping your order is correct. Best chicken come from a gas station here and ill be glad to escoet ya there. We do have a restaurant that claims to be "chicago food" as you speak of famous Portillas. Its meh as I'm a bit of a food critic and love my chicago dogs or Italian beefs(IYKYK) GenHeavyHandz 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
