Pizza Hut Bringing Back Red Cups and Retro Décor at 5 Illinois Locations

My initial reaction to this piece of news fell right in line with Pizza Hut’s reason for why they’re doing what they’re doing.

Pizza Hut is taking it back to the 90s with many of its locations across the United States going “retro.”

If you were wondering how a restaurant can bring back the nostalgia, Pizza Hut plans to do it like this:

• Red roof buildings
• Checkered tableclothes
• Tiffany-style lamps
• Arcade games
• Salad bars

They’re also bringing back those classic red plastic cups, and they say families, like mine, are for real road-tripping to experience a back-in-the-day Pizza Hut.
