Select Board approves Pizzaville common victualler license for incoming owners

The Town of Southborough Select Board voted to approve a common victualler license for the prospective new owners of Pizzaville after the applicants introduced themselves and answered members’ questions.

Neil and Sammy said they plan to complete the purchase in two weeks and initially keep the restaurant’s recipes and operations unchanged. “We’re buying the business in 2 weeks, and we’re trying to keep the recipe the same and, really learn the process,” one of the applicants said, adding the partners expect to expand the menu and offerings within six to 12 months.

Board members asked about seating and parking. The applicants confirmed Pizzaville will remain primarily a takeout and delivery operation and that the storefront has no formal seating. Several board members offered encouragement and wished the team success.

After the discussion, a board member moved to approve the common victualler license for the new owners of Pizzaville; the motion was seconded and approved. The approval allows the new owners to complete their purchase and continue operating under the town’s common victualler rules.
