Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

While in Ottumwa yesterday I stopped by this place to check it out. It took me back to my teenage years in the 80's. What a fantastic place! I ordered a Taco pizza to go and I played games while I waited. BOTH were worth returning for! The taco pizza was reminiscent of taco pizzas I had in the 80's. The really great old original taco pizzas. The crust was so good and the toppings were fantastic. Love the original arcade games - so great to see and play. (Except one of my most favorites from the past, Galaga, was apparently broke down 😆 They had it - I just didn't get to play it.) They also have some fantastic pinball machines. Great machines in great repair! I'm so looking forward to coming back!

Old School Pizza and Pub Ottumwa Iowa - down town Sits close to the location of the famous Life Magazine Photo of Video Game players in the street with 1980s Video Game Cabinets. Pizza had a really good crust- light and fluffy. All the topping ingredients worked together perfectly. Staff is warm and friendly. Bathrooms were clean. Location contains several pinball machines and a couple dozen classic arcade games from the 1980s. It is well lit and the walls are wrapped in history from Ottumwa. It invites you in with a pleasant pizza aroma. This place is a winner. What could make it better- 1.Clean the glass on the games much more frequently. Game play cost money and the glass should be perfectly clean. 2. Use less oil in the pizza prep- it will assist in eliminating some of the oil that pizza creates. Making a great pizza a legendary one. These of course are not deal breakers just the observations of a former Pizza Hut Manager who ranked in the top 1 percent in the World for Quality Service and Cleanliness( QSC) I will be eating this pizza many more times.
