Stromboli

Bob’s Pizza Pantry was family owned and operated with an ideal location on Railroad Ave. in downtown New Albany during the late ’70’s. This family restaurant / teenage hang-out was New Albany’s best.  It was the Vanelli’s of New Albany.  Unable to compete with the arrival of Pizza Hut it was short lived but is well remembered among it’s many patrons.

My favorite menu item was the Stromboli and being friends with the family – Together we share and hope you enjoy!
