🍕 90 Years of Memories
This beautiful Victorian home holds a special place in our family's history.
In 1999, my father, Kent Penso (3rd generation), moved Penso's Pizza into this historic building, creating Penso's Pizza & Restaurant. For the next three years, it became a favorite gathering place for so many in our community.
The restaurant was incredibly busy, and we're forever grateful for the support everyone showed us. But running a full-service restaurant meant long days, late nights, and seven days a week. As much as the restaurant was thriving, it came at the expense of family time.
In 2002, my parents made the difficult decision to return to our original location and focus on the smaller pizzeria that generations of customers had grown to love. Looking back, we felt it was the right decision for our family and one that helped ensure Penso's Pizza would continue serving the community for years to come.
Though the building is gone, the memories made here will always be part of our story.
Do you remember eating at Penso's Pizza & Restaurant? We'd love to hear your favorite memories or see any old photos you might have!
Thank you for being part of our family's journey for 90 years.
