Good Things Come To Those Who Wait

Unfortunately you may be placed on-hold, it does happen on occasion. It shouldn't be long, only a minute or two.  When you make the best pizza in Chicago it can get a little busy.

Coming or Going

Remember to tell us whether you want a delivery or a pick-up (carry-out.)

How Hungry am I?

Begin with the size of the pizza, such as medium or large. Next, say which type of crust you want, such as Garlic Butter or Traditional. Finally, list the toppings in no particular order.

I Forgot

The end of the order is the best time to mention any coupons or specials. Please mention the amount and what it covers.  If you want to receive offers, promotions and gifts join our Pizza Lovers League to receive them by email

I Can’t See You

Turn on your porch light as soon as you hang-up from calling in your order.

We want to make certain your Home Run Inn pizza arrives piping hot.

As a busy mom, our work is never done and there’s never enough time in the day for all that needs to be done - one of those things being getting dinner on the table for the family. Here are a couple ideas from Home Run Inn - makers of your favorite Chicago pizza - on how to make this chore a little easier on mom and that will be a hit with the whole family as well.

Plan a food exchange with a friend or two. Once a month or once a week, make a dinner that can be easily divided into several meals and swap. Freeze the meals to keep, then heat up to serve. You’ll have dinners for several nights for the work of just one.

Need something fast and easy, right now? Pop in a Home Run Inn All Natural frozen pizza. Dinner is served, and the kids are happy. Start with a salad or serve with carrot sticks to make even healthier.

Plan ahead for the week so you can use ingredients for several meals. For example, a store-bought rotisserie chicken can be shredded and used for enchiladas, soup, and salad. Slow-cooked pork tenderloin quickly turns into barbecued pork sandwiches, or you can use these as additional toppings for your frozen pizza's given them your unique flare.

Order a Chicago pizza or a couple pasta dishes from our website before you leave work, and pick up on the way home.

When you’re all done, recruit the family to commit 10 minutes or more to helping clean up. This could be dinner clean up, picking up toys, or some other cleaning chore. Whether it's after a home-cooked meal or a frozen pizza, busy moms need all the help we can get.
