April 19, 2018 – West Bend, WI – The sign for Eaton’s Fresh Pizza now graces the front door at 830 E. Paradise Drive in West Bend.
Looking through the windows of the new home for the franchise shows the plumbing has been put in place and while there wasn’t much activity there is some progress as the build out is underway.
In February we announced Eaton’s Pizza would be returning to West Bend. The franchise owner is coming in from Fond du Lac.
According to the owner Eaton’s Fresh Pizza will be located in the same strip mall anchored by Thrivent Financial.
There’s a target opening date of July 1. The store will employ about 10 people.

On a history note:
Neighbors who have lived in the community a while will remember when Eaton’s Fresh Pizza was located downtown West Bend at 105 S. Main Street.
Dale Hochstein ran it until 2004 when it was sold and turned into The Daily Grind.
The Daily Grind eventually sold to Miguel Herrera who opened Jaliscos and now the location is home to Casa Tequila.
Back in the day of Eaton’s Pizza in West Bend the store had great sub sandwiches and you could order 2 different meats or cheese on a ticket then 5 veggies and they’d stuff it full of goodness and wrap the sandwich tight in cellophane. I think they even wrapped a peppermint with every sandwich.
Also there was somewhat of a gift shop with white lattice-work and green cloth draping.
