  • Abandoned Pizza Hut - Leechburg, PA. Enjoy a look at this classic dine-in location. Closed recently as a new take-out location opened across the road to replace this one. It was a nice location when I got to eat here.

    I’m worried this might end up being the fate of my hometown Pizza Hut. Up until 2020, they were doing fantastic. Small town of less than 3,000 people in a county of less than 20,000…PH is one of THE restaurants to eat at, to say the least. Buffet was wildly popular. They closed the inside for renovations in early 2020 - I want to say just before the virus shut everything down. They did go through with the renovations and completed them sometime in mid-late 2020, but despite a refreshed interior, they remained carryout-only due to limited staffing. Fast forward to 2022, and they did finally reopen the inside for dining - but due to staffing, they couldn’t reopen the buffet, and I believe they are only doing counter service instead of having servers. What used to be a full parking lot every day at lunch and supper is now almost empty except for a few cars. The buffet is what brought people in. Meanwhile, a new Domino’s opened up in town, and they have taken away much of Pizza Hut’s carryout business. I think PH is still profitable enough to remain open, but without the buffet, it’s only a matter of time before they either sell the building and relocate to a storefront with cheap rent, or fold altogether. The buffet is still inside, waiting to be reopened. I have no doubt it would still be insanely popular if they reopened it, but I suppose it’s not feasible until they figure out their staff issues. It’s a real shame.

    They opened a "cheatzahut" after closing down the sit-down restaurant where I had worked decades prior. My old restaurant became a dentist's office (eastern side of Springfield, Ohio). They lopped off the "hut" portion of the roof and installed a regular roof.

    Hey Wallie there a few in the town that use to be pizza huts even though they changed the colors.on the exterior
    You can still tell it was a pizza hut
    There I think like only one or two pizza huts you can sit down in the rest are either pickup or delivery. The last pizza hut I got to eat in was in granbury Texas and they had the buffet. Think they did dinner buffet only a couple of days a week. But you could do lunch buffet either mondaybthru Friday or all week long. It's been a few years since I have been there

    @jackyclaiborne2142 8 месяцев назад

    It's sad that most of the old Pizza Huts are either abandoned or housing other local businesses. Some sadly enough have been back hoed.
    The thing that I remember most fondly of the old Pizza Huts is two basic things. One is the songs that I first heard on the juke box, including the Rolling Stones "Shaddered". The way Mick Jagger sings in that song made me laugh my socks off. Ironically, I also fondly remember the Early American mate's chairs. I always looked at those iconic dining chairs as an essential part of the original decor along with the red checkered tablecloths etc. Though chairs are meaningless to others, the Early American mate's chair to me is very iconic and striking because of it's "guitar shaped" solid wood seat. I noticed the guitar shaped seat the first time I sat in one of those chairs as a six year old child. I climbed up into it, gripping the seat by the edges. That's when I noticed the in-curves that give the mate's chair seat the guitar shape. That's why I look at the mate's chair like one would look at a "Christine" car. Christine is Stephen King's demonic '57 Plymouth Fury. I personally look at the guitar shaped solid wood seat the way one would look at Christine's tail fins. I also admire the ornate spindles, the ornate lathe work in the legs and cross members, and the curved and scolloped back rail, which to me is very elegant. For the second period that Pizza Hut had the mate's chairs in their old restaurants, 1976-'84, I dream that Pizza Hut's second stint with the mate's chairs was the work of Christine. I dream that it was Christine who brought them back during early morning hours. She pulled in, pulled her starboard side up to the customer entrance, and used her supernatural powers to unlock and open the door. Then the other chairs inside scooted out from under the tables simultaneously, as the mate's chairs started floating in mid air out of Christine's starboard side, from her cabin into the Pizza Hut dining room, placing under the tables.
    Around my dining table at home, I have four mate's chairs that closely resemble the ones that Pizza Hut twice had. Mine are finished in oak, while the ones that Pizza Hut had were finished in dark walnut. I also have a red checkered tablecloth to go with the mate's chairs. I've had them for over 30 years, and they're still in good shape. The reason, I've always sat in 'em with proper posture, hips to the spindles!!!! I never lean back on two legs, never slouch in 'em, and never push 'em out from under the table with all of my weight on 'em. If anything was to happen to those chairs, I'd be just as heartsick as Arnie was when Reperton and his good buddies trashed Christine.

    Used to be a Long John Silvers right next to the McDonald's you saw across from what WAS Kmart. The drive thru area is where it used to sit
    Oh that AutoZone at the other end of the lot, used to be a movie theater on that spot. Shut & torn down sometime after 2005.

  • @paulrittenhouse9589
    @paulrittenhouse9589 Год назад +1

    The grassy area next to Pizza Hut with the trail was the site of a sewage treatment plant that served the shopping center. In fact, the new Taco Bell was delayed for years until the Kiski Valley Water Pollution Control Authority could connect a line to the shopping center, thus negating the old sewage treatment plant. I guess the little sewage treatment plant would have been overwhelmed by the torrent of bowel movements coming from Taco Bell.
    The rumor has been Big Lots will move across the street and take up half of the vacated Kmart, with Aldi moving into the other half. Camping World bought the Washington Township school and razed it, so they will eventually vacate the Kmart parking lot. So if Big Lots moves, the old edifice will be razed and redeveloped.

    they closed this building and moved across the road because the building was falling apart and the landlord and corporate did not want to fix it because of money, the womens bathroom was broken for almost a year and water started coming through the walls and flooding the dining room plus kitchen, the roof was caving in, everything that could’ve been saved appliances/ furniture was moved to different stores that needed it.
    the new store is still the same staff, though the general manager is quitting in a week so who knows what’s to become of it after that because she holds it together.
