I’m not sure if it’s officially branded as a “Pizza Hut Classic”, but the Pizza Hut in Montebello, CA (about 15 minutes east of Los Angeles) is a dine-in restaurant with a traditional red roof, red booth seating, brick walls, checkered tables, and a tv. I don’t believe it has the vintage lighting fixtures or a salad bar though.

Alas no! Please encourage the owner (if you are local) to make the retro change! California has NO Pizza Hut Classics and that's a shame!

This great post earned you a subscription, which I have already so thoroughly enjoyed. The original Pizza Hut where I grew up in Kingsport, TN (which is no longer there) was the site of wonderful times on Friday nights after football games. Your photographs of the Pizza Hut Classics took me back. Thank you for this wonderful story and list. (A report on the Hillsville, VA, location coming soon.)

Check out the one in Columbia Falls, MT. It's not labeled as a 'classic', but it fits all the descriptors. Great list!

116 S Bickett Blvd, US-401, Louisburg, NC 27549

This location here was recently renovated into a Classic. It's so recent that Google maps still shows the pre-renovation look.

Love this article! I wanted to add that there may be a Pizza Hut Classic in Delhi, New York; I ate there last November.

There are 2 great candidates for this in Arizona - Winslow & Williams both have classic stores but don’t (yet) have the full classic decor. Wish they would!

I vote Williams. There was one here in Flagstaff but it changed into some seafood place

the PH in North Pole, Alaska is not a "Classic" but has most of the actual older interior (not reproduction)- the signage outside is the newer regular logos (also not Classic).

Thank you! I feel I have to create a second category for stores like this -- not Classics, per se, but still old school.

This is an amazing list! Thank you for compiling it. I have yet to dine in a Pizza Hut Classic, although they have fascinated me for a while. I included them in an article I wrote about nostalgia earlier this year: https://heathracela.substack.com/p/manufactured-nostalgia

The one in Dahlonega is an easy drive from Atlanta. Go north on 400 all the way to the end, turn left on 60 towards Dahlonega, it's on the left just before you get to Dahlonega.

Great stop if you're going to visit the University of North Georgia or go leaf-peeping in the mountains.

Only problem with it is they don't have any video games or a jukebox. Other than that it's perfect.

I want one in Sookane, WA again! We used to have like four of them back in the day. Currently have like five or six of the newer small Pizza-Hut locations. But the OG Pizza-Hut you dine in w/ arcades is the best!
