Three business associates have parleyed their experience in the hospitality industry into a new venture serving a variety of comfort foods.
Kevin Joyce, Jimmy Murphy and Erika Fass opened The Post Pizza & More in Middle Grove over Memorial Day weekend. It is located in the United States Post Office building in an area that once housed The Post Cafe. Joyce has owned the building for years, and when the cafe closed the pizza parlor was born.
Prior to opening the pizza parlor, Joyce owned Tinny’s on Lake Desolation for 10 years, with Fass serving as general manager. Murphy has extensive experience creating unique pizza dishes and was brought into the business as the pizza chef.
While the search is on to expand their staff, the partners currently do the majority of the work.
“Everything is made here,” said Murphy. “We make the dough here. We make the sauce here.”
The menu includes breakfast sandwiches, slices of pizza, a 16-inch pizza, a 12-inch cauliflower pizza, a pepperoni roll and a Caesar salad.
They are experimenting with rotating offerings such as a hamburger special and quesadillas.
