Mystic Pizza in Mystic, New London County, United States | Pizza

Welcome to the world famous Mystic Pizza, Mystic, United States. Our story begins in 1973... when the Zelepos family bought a pizza shop on historic Main Street in Mystic, CT. They named the place "Mystic Pizza," and began serving the hungry locals and tourists. Mystic Pizza became very popular.
Of course, the real reason behind our success is the Pizza. So tempting and addicting is Mystic Pizza, that the crowds grew and grew...
And then one day, Hollywood came to town!!!! Incredibly, our little Pizza shop caught the eye of a Los Angeles screen writer named Amy Jones. The movie was filmed on location in Mystic and neighboring towns. When "Mystic Pizza" was released in 1988, it was a huge hit! Even Siskel and Ebert gave it two thumbs up.
Meanwhile, back in Mystic, the little Pizza shop could barely keep up with demand. Customers lined the sidewalk, waiting to taste "A Slice of Heaven." Menus and matchbooks disappeared in amazing quantities. Outside on Main Street, cars dangerously avoided the Pizza fans who straddled the yellow lines, angling for photos.
