Everyone Goes to Pizza Joes!

I am starting a new feature on Z's Place Local! I want to highlight all the great places I support and let you know why I love their business!

Pizza Joe's on Main St. in Butler, is a great little place. I lived over on Pillow St. for 2 years or so, and we ordered there a lot, for quick service, as well as a great quality product for a nice budgeted family night. Eating some pizza, playing some games, or watching the movies we rented...I was impressed with the staff at this Pizza Joe's, now granted, I have not ordered from there in around 6 months, but I am sure there has been no change in their procedures after 2 years of previous great service.

My favorite menu items from this restaurant are:

9 Cute Pizza (with my kids' favorite toppings)
Philly Steak Stromboli (AWESOME)
Cinnamon Stix (Kids love these)
Bread Stix (Super Tasty)

Gluten-free the right way at Chuck E. Cheese's!‏

When I was a kid, Chuck E. Cheese's was a great treat. I lived to far in the country that we had to travel over an hour just to get to one. Now they are everywhere. I loved collecting tickets and getting prizes, but since we were so far away, we had to spend whatever tickets we had at the end of each visit. Now at our local Chuck E. Cheese's you can turn in your tickets for a slip to be scanned whenever you are ready to redeem a prize.

There are several things as a parent I love about C.E.C's. The main one, the family unit gets a stamp when they enter with a unique number so your children can only leave with an adult with that matching number, this is a super great security thing for parents. Another, I love that is really is an inexpensive family night. For $50 all of us can go and have pizza and drinks, tons of fun, and bring home pictures with us, on the C.E.C.'s car, or those little Chuck E. Extreme Cards, my daughter is in love with those! The best thing, each game is the same cost, 1 token, and a token is just $0.25!

Another great thing Chuck E. Cheese's has done is provide Gluten Free items on their menu! I contacted our Local Chuck E. Cheese's to see if it was available there, and YES, the C.E.C.'s at the Clearview Mall has the gluten free menu!


Here is a small list of the C.E.C.'s in our area(s).

Also, right now you can play for tickets online at the Chuck E. Cheese's website, and those are worth double (with a food purchase) until March 31. 2013!


Plus, sign up for the email club and receive awesome new like this in your email, as well as coupons and discounts!
