Pizza Haven is based in Washington State. Originally established in 1958. The first restaurant opened in Seattle’s University District, and within months a second Pizza Haven followed. As the public “discovered” pizza and demand for this product grew, more Pizza Haven restaurants opened. In 1964, home delivery – the Haven Peddler – was added to the operation. Pizza Haven was one of the first pizza companies to make deliveries. Restaurant employees used radio phones to relay orders to roving drivers who carried stacks of pizzas in warming ovens in the back of their jeeps and pickup trucks. Ron Bean, the original founder, and a series of partners grew Pizza Haven into a chain of 42 restaurants throughout the Pacific Northwest and California. From a modest beginning, Pizza Haven grew to include Pizza Haven and Bean Pod restaurants with catering and cafeterias throughout Washington including the Husky Stadium, Key Arena and once upon a time Kingdome sponsoring the Sounders, Sonics and Thunderburds. The 700-employee company also opened franchises in Russia, Poland and the Middle East. Pizza Haven is still committed to the same high standards of quality food and service that were so important over 60 years ago and look forward to continued development of Pizza Haven.
