About Broadway Pizza
Broadway Pizza has been a beloved neighborhood institution since 1961, when Eddie Peck bought Spallacci's operation along with its delicious pizza recipe. With the help of his wife Dorothy and mother Mamie, Eddie continued the tradition of making homemade pizza in his north Minneapolis restaurant and bar. Mamie would simmer special sauces and knead fresh dough, while Eddie made sausage from scratch. The community quickly fell in love with Eddie's pizzas, and standing room only became the norm at the old Broadway Pizza. When the restaurant had to relocate due to construction, Eddie chose to stay in the north Minneapolis neighborhood and built his new Broadway Pizza on railroad-themed grounds. Today, Broadway Pizza has expanded to serve multiple neighborhoods, offering their famous award-winning pizza as well as a wide selection of wings, burgers, hoagies, appetizers, salads, pasta, and desserts. They also provide kids meals, happy hours, delivery, and take-out services. Whether you're craving a classic pizza or something different, Broadway Pizza has something for everyone. Join the Broadway Pizza family and enjoy 70 years of great dining and fun!.
