"Pizza Hut Classic" locations take the chain's fans "on a time trip back to a simpler, warmer era," The New York Times reports.
- The retro-themed restaurants have everything you remember from the Pizza Huts of the '80s and 90s: red checkerboard tablecloths, branded hanging lamps, original menus.
Zoom in: They're typically in "small towns far from urban centers," per the Times, including places like Alliance (Stark County), Warren (Trumbull County) and Salem (Columbiana County)
🤷 Pizza Hut parent company Yum Brands doesn't promote them or acknowledge their existence.
- But "retrologist" Rolando Pujol has assembled a list of about 80 locations.
Pujol tells The Times: "I did feel like I was giving people a passport to find a piece of their personal history that they had lost track of."
- "I am doing a public service."
