"First time customers! Traveling from Waco to Abilene and just hit Gatesville at supper time. We are glad we picked this location to eat. My family and I were extremely impressed with the pizzas. Some of the best I’ve eaten, and trust me, that is saying a lot. We have all agreed we will plan our routes and times through there when we can, just so we can eat there."

"First time in Studebaker’s and it was great all around. Had cauliflower crust meat lovers (who knew you could get a cauliflower crust in Gatesville, Texas?) and it tasted great, crunchy and well-appointed with meat. Lots of beer choices and cool to see local young people working. Music and decor were great. Highly recommended."

Perry | Google Review

"We loved the old fashioned mom and pop style. We didn’t get to buy any ice cream, but we will make it a 2nd date. The pizza was hot, very cheesy (YUM), and fresh. It was made with perfection. Thank you for the service and the clean tables. Loved the pizza!"
