Who We Are Pizza Ranch started as a single location in Hull, Iowa in 1981. Today, Pizza Ranch is a fast-casual restaurant that specializes in signature pizzas, The Country's Best Chicken®, fresh salads, desserts, and convenient delivery and takeout options. In 2006, we enhanced the guest experience by introducing FunZone Arcades—in-restaurant entertainment featuring the latest games and prize redemption. Since then, we've been on a rapid expansion path, growing to more than 220 locations across 15 states, with many now featuring FunZone Arcades.

These values are woven into all aspects of our organization. Pizza Ranch is committed to making a positive impact—big or small—so that each person leaves a little better off because of the genuine care and concern we show our guests, team members, and communities.
