The Realest Family-Owned Spot in Davis County - Circle Inn Pizzeria!!!
If you're looking for a true local, family-owned business that's been a pillar in Davis County for decades--go to The Circle Inn Pizzeria. I've known this family for over 25 years, back when holiday gatherings were held at the circle in Sunset, Utah. (If you know, you know--especially if you ever wondered where to park or were a little nervous to!)
This isn't just a pizza spot. It's a place where the food is cared for, made with heart, and served to the local community that watched this family grow up--and vice versa. From Clearfield to Sunset, and really all of Davis County, the Circle Inn name has always meant something. I was literally there when the current owner was brought home from the hospital as a baby--and now he's running the place with the same strong spirit the family has always had. His stepdad ran the iconic local "dive bar" everyone knew--even if they said they hated it, they still went!
And that fire? Devastating. But they rebuilt. They came back stronger. That alone shows the heart of this family and what this business means to the community.
This place deserves every bit of recognition as Utah's 2025 Family-Owned Local Business of the Year--hands down. If anyone disagrees, I'd ask:
1. How long have you lived in Utah?
2. How big of a radius have you actually lived in for the last 30, 40, 50 years?
Because if you've stayed close to this area, you know what The Circle Inn means.
I've been through a lot in life--20 years in the Air Force, a deployment to Iraq, and recently, one of the hardest personal struggles I've faced--but this place has always been a little symbol of home, community, and resilience.
Go support this OG local family spot. They've been supporting the community for decades. They've earned every bit of love and loyalty they get. read more
