About The Position

At Home Run Inn, we believe pizza should do more than fill you up—it should lift you up. For nearly 100 years, we've been bringing people together over authentic Chicago tavern-style pizza. Every pizza we serve carries a tradition of quality, care, and craftsmanship, and it all starts with the people making it. If you take pride in your work, enjoy working as part of a team, thrive in a fast-paced kitchen, and love creating food that makes someone's day, we'd love to meet you. As a Pizza Maker, you'll play one of the most important roles in our restaurant. Every pizza you prepare helps create memorable experiences for our guests and keeps them coming back. You'll prepare fresh ingredients, handcraft pizzas to our recipes, maintain a clean and organized kitchen, and work alongside teammates who care about doing things the right way. No two shifts are exactly the same—and that's part of what makes the job exciting.
