1959 was the year when Round Table Pizza emerged on a very different world and restaurant scene from those of today. But on Dec. 11, when the brand officially turns 60, it's planning to throwback a little to 1959, at least in price, by offering diners to buy a large pizza at regular price and get a second one-topping large pizza for the 1959 price of $2.80 for dining in or carrying out, according to a news release.
The brand is also asking its patrons, both old and new, to do the very 21st century thing of sharing their memories on the brand's Facebook and Instagram pages. Fans, including stories, photos and video. Those who reminisce a la Round Table are entered to win a $50 gift car to the restaurant and select submissions will featured in the chain's anniversary video posting on this coming Dec. 11 on its social media channels.
"Our founder, Bill Larson, believed in 'sharing a little pizza with someone you love,' and through our throwback pricing, we are doing just that — sharing our delicious pizza with those we love — our customers," Round Table Pizza parent group, Global Franchise Group Executive Vice President, Brand Marketing Annica Conrad, said in the release. "Not many brands, let alone pizza restaurants, have such a storied and nostalgic history like that of Round Table Pizza. Round Table puts a lot of heart and passion into what we do which is why we have reigned as 'Pizza Royalty' for 60 years."
Today, Round Table Pizza has more than 440 restaurants across the United States.
