Angie’s Chicago Style Pizza, attracting customers on campus and in the community with such specials as $1 pizzas, closed indefinitely Sunday night.

The locally-owned restaurant closed because of debt, said Paul Coffman, owner of the Angie’s Pizza building.

Coffman, who owns Coffman Insurance Agency, a division of Allstate, was in the process of buying the business from owner Barbara Phillips.

He plans to open the location for business again, and changes to the business name and style are uncertain.

The pizzeria operated at their Charleston East Lincoln Ave. location after moving January 2001 from West Park Plaza. Angie’s Pizza moved to the new location to have a larger dining area, and included more items to their menu.

“We are working with the bank to assume (Phillips) equipment loan,” Coffman said. “Really it was some of her management problems (that caused Angie’s closure).”

He said Phillip’s personal debt led to the business’ closure.

Angie’s Pizza has been open for four years and offered not only pizza, but also pasta and calzones.

Food deals and a good location made Angie’s Pizza popular and worth regrouping to open again, Coffman said.

“We’ve got a lot of support from the community,” Coffman said.

Coffman is uncertain when the location will operate again.

Barbara Phillips was unavailable for comment.
