News Papa Kelsey’s Grand Re-Opening
Earlier this year the owners of Papa Kelsey’s in Hagerman, Doyle & Robyn Hope, finished a deep cleaning/repainting of their pizza parlor to give it a fresh new look. Then, a couple of months ago, they found out they needed to move their business to a new location. Doyle & Robyn (who have owned the Papa Kelsey’s in Hagerman since 2007) were fortunate to find a building waiting for them, just up the street next to the Hagerman Valley Historical Museum. Not only is the new location closer to the center of town, it gives them more room to serve their customers. Next Tuesday, May 15th, Papa Kelsey’s will host a Grand Re-Opening at 130 South State Street, and at 5:00 p.m. the Hagerman Valley Chamber of Commerce will have a Ribbon Cutting! Everyone is invited to join the celebration with snacks, raffle prizes, and the great food Mr. & Mrs. Hope have been serving for the last ten years... and for many years to come! Papa Kelsey’s is open Monday-Thursday and Saturday 11 to 8, and Fridays from 11 to 9. Along with pizza and subs, they serve salads, soups, wraps, burgers, and Farr’s ice cream. Call ahead for quick service 208-837-6680. Take out is available.
