Pizza Hut was the first pizza chain restaurant in the United States. It was started in 1958 as well. The first Pizza Hut was so small, that is why the name is relatively short. They only had space for nine letters on the sign.
After the success of Pizza Hut, other fast food pizza restaurants started popping up. Domino’s started in 1960 but was originally called DomiNick’s.
TGI Friday’s was started in New York City in 1965. It was originally supposed to be a bar for single people!
