Doubling our resources to move from one to two locations is a huge challenge.
#OLD SCRATCH PIZZA PROFESSIONAL#
What’s been your most recent professional challenge, and how did you push through the challenge? Old Scratch Pizza scored a national shout-out from a national publication that covers the pizza industry. We love Dayton because it is a great city to raise a family, and we have developed a fantastic community of friends. I accepted a position locally and we made the move. We wanted to move somewhere near family, and my parents lived here. > Ghostlight Coffee announces plans for 2nd location next to Old Scratch Pizza We were both running catering departments - Stephanie for Norwich University, and I was at the New England Culinary Institute. My wife, Stephanie, and I were living in Vermont after we graduated from Restaurant Management school. Why did you decide to stay in and settle in the Dayton area? > END OF AN ERA: Vandalia restaurant to shut its doors after 38 years These days it is mostly getting things ready for the new location. Fortunately, we have a great staff and management team that keeps things running smoothly. I’m always working on the business though. I typically work in the restaurant managing one day a week and on weekend evenings. The new location will feel familiar, but fresh at the same time. We are pretty excited about bringing OSP to a new neighborhood. We listened to our customers and friends and studied some data that let us know that this particular location would be a good one.
The new Washington Township location happens to be right around the corner from where we used to live, so we are very familiar with the neighborhood. > RELATED: Old Scratch Pizza to open 2nd location We have an incredible group of managers, and kitchen and service teams that have grown with us and are ready for new challenges. We always said that if the first location was successful (and everyone in the family was still talking to one another!), we would look for another location.
CONTRIBUTEDĪnd what prompted you to decide to add a second location of Old Scratch? The atmosphere is casual, with seating in the dining area provided by picnic tables. It features a variety of craft beers on tap as well as a wine and cocktail list. Independent and locally owned Old Scratch Pizza serves Naples-style pizzas cooked in wood-fired ovens, as well as salads and a few specialty items.
