About Pizza inn
Pizza inn has been bringing people together over great food in United States since 1996. We craft every dish with genuine passion, quality ingredients, and a deep love for the communities we serve.
Our Beginning
A Passion for Pizza
Since 1996
Pizza inn started as a single neighborhood pizzeria in Murfreesboro, Arkansas — a small kitchen with a big dream. Our founders believed that incredible pizza inn food didn't need to be complicated; it just needed the right ingredients, the right technique, and genuine care for the people eating it.
Over nearly three decades, that philosophy has stayed at the heart of everything we do. From our hand-tossed doughs to our house-made sauces, every item on our menu reflects a commitment to quality that began on day one. We've grown into a beloved local institution, but we've never forgotten our roots — or the neighbors who believed in us first.
Today, Pizza inn continues to bring families and friends together through food that's crafted with intention and served with warmth. When you walk through our doors, you're not just a customer — you're part of our story.
