Crowds stuff Pizza Hut as restaurant returns to Corning’s Northside. Look inside.

People flocked to the new Pizza Hut in Corning Thursday to enjoy all it has to offer four years after its closing in 2020 amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

Dozens of vehicles filled the Pizza Hut parking lot, and several people leaving the busy restaurant at about 12:30 p.m. Thursday said with a smile on their faces that it’s about time that Pizza Hut was back in Corning.

“I’m so happy that it’s back,” said Jennifer Schack, Corning City Deputy Registrar. “I’m here getting lunch for myself and others to take back to City Hall. It’s great to have it back.”
