Family Fun in Ione at Pizza Factory!
By Tim Dunn

The minute you walk into Ione's Pizza Factory on Main Street, you know you're in for a good time! Come one, come all! The Pizza Factory on Main Street in Ione is a fantastic place! Go upstairs to a huge room full of games with flashing lights & bells and whistles. It's like a light show; games I've never seen before (one pinball machine). The Bounce House is inflated for parties. The room includes an air hockey machine.

Owner Dan Neher says he wanted to create a place for families to go where they would feel safe and have a good time. Dan offers birthday party packages for the great price of $99. For a party of 8 this includes decorated tables, gift bags, 2 large pizzas, soda, and ice cream. There is a discount if extra food is ordered. Kids can enjoy a color and activity book (that also includes a $2 coupon) while they wait for their pizza.

The upstairs room can be used for parties, weddings, reunions, and fundraisers, at no charge for the fundraisers. Some fundraisers have included the following groups: Junior Mustangs (cheerleaders), Boy Scouts, Fire Department, 4H Club and the Buckaroos. The room can also be used for business and staff meetings.

Dan bought the Pizza Factory in Lockeford 4 1/2 years ago, and opened the store in Ione 2 1/2 years ago. He knew nothing about making pizzas and, as he demonstrated to me, he has become an expert.

Twirling and flipping a pizza high above his head is something you have to see! In making pizzas, Dan uses a conveyer type oven that cooks the pizza evenly and perfectly. It takes about five minutes and they are delicious. There are specialty pizzas like vegetarian, Hawaiian, and a Mustang Combo; Gourmet pizzas with items such as pesto, artichokes and feta cheese; and Chicken & Seafood pizzas such as Chicken Alfredo, BBQ Chicken, Seafood combo, and Fajita Chicken. The pizza aromas are tantalizing!

Pizza Factory also makes deluxe Deli and Super Sandwiches which are served hot on an oven-roasted roll with Provolone cheese. Their meatball sandwich is the best! Other offerings are Appetizers, Soup & Salad, Pasta and Calzones. Lunch specials are served weekdays from 11am to 3pm and include a 20oz soda with each special. Enjoy Domestic, Imported & Premium beer, Chablis, White and Red Zinfandel wines. There is a unique Dessert Pizza, Ice Cream Cake and ice cream to sweeten your palate after a great meal at the Pizza Factory.

Dan offers Bounce House Party Packages, Party Platters and Catering is also available. Stop in soon at the Ione or Lockeford Pizza Factory locations. Ione: 10 Main Street, 274-0270.
