Ed n Joe’s
Business System Advantage

As an Ed n Joe’s franchise owner, not only will you participate in three of America’s fastest growing industries — restaurants, pizza and carry out — but you’ll also have access to our dynamic business system. Over the years, we’ve done all the planning and testing, and all the trial and error in making our business system what it is today.

Superior Menu

At Ed n Joe’s, our mission is to remain focused on the delicious, wholesome, time-tested recipes and flavors of a bygone era. We take extra time and care in preparing our food. This dedication to good, old-fashioned quality is what sets us apart from other restaurants and makes us very special.

Our customers rave about the taste, quality, and quantity of our food, and they also love the large number of menu items we carry — more than 100 superb selections! It’s a menu with so much variety, there’s virtually something for everyone. Our famous, mouth-watering pizzas start with outstanding preparation. They’re always made fresh to order, and we use only the finest ingredients, including 100% natural, extra dry mozzarella cheese. Our homemade sauce is made from gourmet tomatoes that are vine ripened, prior to canning, and our sausage is freshly ground, according to our original 1961 recipe. When it comes to fresh pizza dough, ours is made daily from scratch. And all of our pizzas are baked in deck ovens, which greatly enhances the marvelous taste of our golden brown pizza crust.

In addition to our famous pizzas, our constantly changing menu features a wide selection of appetizers, soups, salads and side dishes. Our delicious entrees include everything from house specialties, such as smothered New York strip steak and flame-grilled fish of the day, to fish and chips, sautéed chicken, and grilled pork chops. Our traditional pasta menu, features spaghetti, mostaccioli, and lasagna. And when it comes to our savory, innovative sandwiches, you literally need to “get a grip on it.” They’re so huge; it takes two hands to hold them.

Rounding out our menu is an extensive selection of draft and bottled beers, wines and cocktails, as well as a luscious dessert menu.

Ed n Joe’s Offers You . . .

Two, Expandable Concepts to Choose From!

Would you like to own a full-service, dine-in restaurant or a carry out facility? Whichever way you want to go, we can accommodate you, because we can offer you two expandable concepts to choose from.

The Dine-In Concept

Ranging from 4,500 to 6,000 square feet, the Ed n Joe’s dine-in unit is a spacious, full-service restaurant, with a well-stocked bar. It features our full menu, with a heavy focus on our delicious, well-known pizza selections.

With charming décor, this attractive facility fosters an environment that is warm, comfortable, friendly and “homey.” It consists of a stand-alone building with ample seating, including outdoor seating on a covered porch. Tables and chairs are of rich, dark wood, as are the cozy booths that line the walls. Adding to this rustic feel is a copper-coated tin ceiling, from which are suspended charming, old-fashioned ceiling fans. The walls in the dining areas are painted in deep, rich colors and are accented by attractive wainscoting. There is also a private room for business meetings and private parties.

The lounge features a beautiful cathedral ceiling, hardwood floors, and an attractive bar, featuring draft beers, cocktails and excellent wines. On certain evenings, live, acoustic music is played in the lounge, and it can be heard throughout the entire restaurant, enhancing the fun, friendly atmosphere of dining at Ed n Joe’s.

Separate from the dining and lounge areas is a carry out and delivery section. It has its own entrance and a window for placing orders, while the dine-in concept also features a catering business, which offers many menu items, for private parties. The dine-in concept can be expanded to include additional dining space and private meeting rooms.

The Carryout Concept

The Ed n Joe’s carry out concept offers an
outstanding carryout and delivery business. Delicious pizzas are the mainstay offering, but most other menu items are also available, including appetizers, sandwiches, pastas and house specialties.

Ranging in size from 750 to 1,000 square feet, the carryout facility has a spacious area for customer ordering, waiting and pickup. Orders are placed, processed and rapidly filled, with our computerized, state-of-the-art, point-of-sale system. The modern, spotlessly clean kitchen is equipped with top-of-the-line deck ovens, which bake pizzas more evenly and thoroughly than conveyor ovens. Just off the kitchen is an area where delivery drivers can conveniently pick up their orders.  The carry out concept can be expanded to include catering and/or dine-in facilities.
