History of Round Table Pizza
Round Table Pizza, founded in 1959 by William R. Larson in Menlo Park, California, quickly became known for its high-quality, handcrafted pizzas. Larson, aiming to create a restaurant that offered a unique dining experience, focused on using fresh ingredients and creating a comfortable, family-friendly atmosphere. The brand grew steadily, and by the 1970s, it began expanding through franchising, reaching new regions across the United States.
Throughout the 1980s and 1990s, Round Table Pizza continued to expand, becoming one of the largest pizza chains in the U.S. Known for its signature 'King Arthur's' pizza, the brand distinguished itself by offering a variety of specialty pizzas and a focus on premium ingredients. In recent years, Round Table Pizza has faced competition from larger pizza chains but remains a popular choice in certain markets. It continues to emphasize its commitment to quality and customer satisfaction as a core part of its brand identity.
