In a small town called Independence in the southeastern corner of Kansasa new family-owned restaurant, called Brother’s Railroad Inn, is serving pizza in the “old way” while surviving in a world of large pizza chains and modern technology.

The owner, Mike Conway, has lots of experience with family-owned restaurants. He grew up working in a family restaurant, the original Railroad Inn, started by his grandfather and father in Bowie, Maryland in 1950. The original store only served soup, sandwiches, seafood and a few other entreés. The restaurant started offering pizzas in 1961. [ more ]
