Our Passion for Pizza

Why would anyone in their right mind be pssionate about something so ordinary and mundane as pizza?  At least the pizza we know today? The huge corporate chains that turn hungry customers into sheep. The frozen box things that bear no resemblance to anything edible. Those horrible gas station monstrosities that you just know came from a foggy, cold warehouse somewhere and were trucked in just to satisfy the palates of on-the-go gasoline buyers?
Pizza, in some form or other has been around for thousands of years. Romans cooked meat and cheese on flatbread over hot stones. Greeks did something, Im sure.
So why now are WE, here in a small Texas town so darn heated up about pizza?
Well, cause we can, that's why!
We love the smell of fresh, handmade, hand tossed dough. We like the feel of a peel full of pie steaming and ready to be cut and boxed the simple, old fashioned way.
We like espcially the sparkle in the eyes of our customers who wait for great, simple fare at fair prices and who take in long, wonderful sniffs of pizza aroma when they open those cardboard boxes and find unadorned pleasure inside.
Zippys, from day one, was dedicated to great pizza. Not necessarily fancy-pants, 5 star restaurant, only Californians would eat it, pizza, but the kind of pizza that harkens back to those days when a neighborhood pizza joint was THE place to be on a busy Saturday night. Zippys pizza makes you feel good, pure and simple and draws you into a place and time that seems to be lost nowdays.
Customer service, good old-fashioned customer service makes us different from the big chains. That~~and real, handmade dough that makes you think of Grannie's pie dough, ingredients hand selected for freshness and no MSG. A sauce lovingly prepared and spiced for that balance of sweet and savory. All this makes Zippys something special and you should expect something different about us and something different from the giant pizza chains every time you walk in our door!
We are pssionate about pizza. Our pizza, the BEST darn pizza in Texas!
