Figaro's Pizza Franchise News

October 7, 2011- We’d like to announce a new Figaro’s Pizza now open in John Day, Oregon. We have had a store in John Day for several years, however when Pete Teague’s purchased the store, he decided to change locations to a different part of town. He actually bought an older house, gutted it, and totally remodeled. With Italian colors of red and green, he definitely made the place into a beautiful store offering dine-in, take out, and delivery.
Besides running the new Figaro’s Pizza, Pete also owns the Dairy Queen in John Day. With his expertise in providing great service and product, we know that both locations will be a great place for customers to dine.
The new team at Figaro’s invites you to come visit us at 825 S...

The restaurant will employ about 30 people, including delivery drivers. Ever since they posted a coming soon message on the big electronic sign in front of the plaza their phone has been ringing with people who want to order one of Figaro's thin, Sicilian or original crust pizzas, Bradley said...
