Rascal House Pizzas flagship store opened in downtown Cleveland, OH opposite Cleveland State University in 1980. Rascal House has been a huge part of the campus and surrounding downtown community ever since. In 1982 the Students of Cleveland State named Rascal House the “best off-campus Eatery” . Rascal House has also earned the title “Cleveland’s Best… “ from many local publications including the Cleveland Plain Dealer. By 1991 Rascal House’s popularity led to an outpour from Rascal fans requesting locations in their local communities. In 1994 the second Rascal House location was opened in Euclid, OH and a third location in University Heights the following year. With the opening of the University Circle and Maple Heights locations there are now 5 stores total.
So what started off as a place for CSU students to get an affordable and tasty lunch, Rascal House has grown to become a lunchtime favorite throughout the corporate community as well.
Looking to the future
Flagship store has relocated, we’ll still be on CSU campus, just a few doors down from our old location on Euclid Ave. This new store has a fresh new look and will be the start to lay a foundation for more store openings. We’re all looking forward to this exciting new chapter in the history of Rascal House.
