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.
Confirmed Pizza Hut Classic in Edna, TX. Dined today. Classic posters, pizza on plates and in a pan, plastic cups, arcade games. Exterior sign denotes “classic”. 803 W Main St, Edna, TX 77957
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.)
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!
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).
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
There are two additional Pizza Hut Classics in Wisconsin. One is located at 801 E Spruce St, Abbotsford, WI, and the other is at 2395 S Main St, Rice Lake, WI.
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!
Man I really wish there was one near LA
Hopefully one turns up or converts. Looking!

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!
There is one in Bunkie, LA
@Rjpete I’m pretty sure he meant Los Angeles

Thank you! Will add!

Yeah! That makes me so happy to hear. Thanks for the support and the memories ... and I look forward to your report!
Check out the one in Columbia Falls, MT. It's not labeled as a 'classic', but it fits all the descriptors. Great list!
There’s one in Bristow, OK that’s not on your list.
Thank you! Just added!
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.
Thank you! And neat video about it! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lrq82mM5bhI
Love this article! I wanted to add that there may be a Pizza Hut Classic in Delhi, New York; I ate there last November.
Oh no! Appears to have closed. Sad.
I will check it out! Tnx Emily!

Me too! Let me know if that happens!
I vote Williams. There was one here in Flagstaff but it changed into some seafood place

There is a classic in Perry, OK. The new sign even says “Classic”. Thank you for compiling this list. So cool!
Thank you! Great tip, and adding it to the list right now! Happy Classic hunting!
We have one in Moab Utah

It appears they renovated this legacy store, but did not go "Classic." https://www.facebook.com/grandmererestaurantgroup/posts/pfbid0ueen136Xt7ANxu4jyAoRtsS5FrKrtStkYC35KsQWeukroYTFZ7k6xyL8rkxzMKtgl
Ahhh
I see the difference
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.
I'm sure there are lots of hidden gems out there- it's a wide, pizza-loving world!
Sure is!!

Thank you Heath! I will add a link to your article in my roundup!
Awesome- thank you! And hopefully this list of restaurants grows with time too!

Would love to visit that one!! Thank you, you've whet my appetite to go!
Do they have a salad bar?
Yes

Need some in that area? The smaller ones ... don't hit the same!
