Pizza Hut

In 1958, Frank and Dan Carney had an idea for a great local pizza restaurant in Wichita Kansas, USA. The small 25 seat restaurant only had room for 9 letters on the sign…as the vital word 'Pizza' took up most of the space, and the building was in the shape of a hut - the name ‘Pizza Hut' was born!

In 1973, fifteen years after those humble beginnings, our first restaurant in the UK opened in Islington, London. By 1986 we’d reached 100 hundred restaurants in the UK and in 1988 our first UK delivery store was opened in Kingsbury, London.

Today there are over 700 Huts and delivery stores. In fact we are now part of the biggest pizza company on the planet!

And here’s some trivia for you: the most requested type of pizza in the UK is the Meat Feast. We'd love to know what your favourite is...write on our wall and tell us!
