WELCOME TO
PANHANDLER'S!
10,000 memories. 1 pizza.
Panhandler’s Pizza was originally opened in 1975 by the Foster family and sold in the early 1980s to John Olson. In 2017, the original location at 1220 West Elizabeth was set to be torn down to accommodate growth in Campus West and John decided to sell the business and retire. Louann DeCoursey purchased the business and reopened it at its current location on South College Avenue in 2018. Today, Panhandler's Pizza is owned by Louann and about 25 local Pans fans committed to ensuring that Fort Collins continues to be home to the best deep-dish pizza West of the Mississippi.
