OT: Clifton's Pizza has closed after nearly 30 years.

Quality pizza. Hate to see a locally owned joint close. Not sure why selling the restaurant wasn't an option.

I saw that. A Louisville Institution for good food, drinks ,and music for many years. Sad to see.

I bet they tried. Selling a business is difficult, and if it hasn't shown a profit, nearly impossible. They will be missed.

Plus there are a bunch of good pizza joints in Louisville. Competition is strong here and if you aren’t either offering what the folks want OR your location (parking, etc.) sucks then you will have a problem. Pretty simple if you ask me. For example, the only way I’m going downtown to Main Street for pizza OR anything to eat or drink is if I’m already there for something at the YUM Center. Otherwise, I’m not going to fight for a parking spot anywhere I don’t have to. Yeah, it is that important to the average customer OR buyer of a business.

GO CARDS - BEAT EVERYBODY!!! God Bless America!!!

Nu Lou is where it's at...clifton is just a bit of a stretch for now for pretty much any business.

I loved their Calzones and pizza, but it was so hard to find parking around there. With so many other equally good places it just became too much trouble.

I was dining at Clifton’s the night Lattener made THE SHOT against Kentucky. That was the Best Pizza I ever tasted
