PIZZA GALLERY AD - 1984

I suppose students could have gone straight from their days stint at Kingsway Tech and popped down to the Pizza Gallery in Peter Street pend to take advantage of the discounts they had on offer.
I can remember visiting it a couple of times - a pretty decent place to dine - and it had a "Famous Artists" theme for you to view while waiting to be served.
The advert is dated 1984.

PETER STREET PEND

In the 60's, we used to have a pet rabbit, and often on Saturday mornings we'd stop off at the Central Pet Stores in Peter St to get some food for it. When you went through the pendie, you could actually "smell" the pet shop first before you could see it. It was quite a good wee place to visit when you were primary school age, seeing all the fish, birds, hamsters etc. I remember the rabbit food we got came in cylinder shaped pellets. Went in the rabbit a cylinder, and popped out a sphere..!!
On the other side of the road was Lotus Shoes shop and Smith & Horner the drapers.
In the 70's when I was a bit older, I think I only used the pendie as a shortcut to get to the ABC.
And in the 80's, around where the old pet shop was located, they opened a Pizza Gallery that had an "art" theme.
If you enlarge the photo, you'll notice that beside the archway, the Hulltoon Hunz have kindly date-stamped the photo, which was taken in 1989. HH claiming to be No1 at the time..!!
