North Mr. Pizza

The thought of Mr. Pizza began way back in 1963 when Mark Fulton’s dad was in the kitchen putting together a pizza from a box of Chef Boyardee. While perfecting this at home, the thought came, “We could make this a business…” The Mr. Pizza restaurant opened in 1963, and was operated in the small shopping center. Mr. Pizza continued as a family run business all the way though 2019. Mark was busy as an up-and-coming pizza restaurant owner, and that’s when Jane came into the picture. She was a waitress at the South Store, and it wasn’t long before the two linked up and started dating. Championship Dining, the Schoville/Zubay run restaurant group, decided to preserve the small, family-run pizza tradition and took over as the new owners.
