History

In 1985, Richard Rosenfield and Larry Flax co-founded CPK by pooling their savings and taking out bank loans as well as leasing space in Beverly Hills, California. The restaurant’s first menu included the now-famous BBQ Chicken Pizza, which immediately endeared CPK to customers. With their immediate success, the co-founders quickly expanded their operations across South California such that there were 26 locations by 1992.  But as with any business venture, trouble was not far behind and it started with the purchase by PepsiCo in 1992; the soft drinks giant purchased 67% stake in the chain. PepsiCo made several blunders including fast expansion and substitution of fresh ingredients with frozen ones. By 1997, Bruckmann, Rosser, Sherrill & Company purchased PepsiCo’s stake but it, too, made grave mistakes in management resulting in losses. In 2011, CPK became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Golden Gate Capital.

What They’re Famous For

CPK has a quirky reputation among pizza fans in that its pizzas are innovative, if not edgy, in comparison with its fast-food competitors, such as Shakey’s. Among its non-traditional pizzas are the Original BBQ Chicken Pizza, the Jamaican Jerk Chicken pizzas, and the Thai Chicken Pizzas, among others.  The brand is also known for its line of hand-tossed style crust, gluten-free crust, crispy thin crust, and small frozen pizzas, which you can buy from the restaurants and in supermarkets.

Why Eat Here

If you want both traditional and non-traditional pizzas, then CPK is your best choice. You will find a wide range of pizzas that will satisfy your near-insatiable appetite for the American staple. Your choices include pizzas for meat lovers, vegetarians, and everything else in between, even for international cuisines from Asia and South America. You will also love the extensive selection of pastas, burgers, sandwiches, desserts, and drinks for adults and children alike. Your server will likely be attentive without being disruptive, friendly without being intrusive, and efficient without being cold, too.
