September was a big month to celebrate three of our employee-owners! September 3rd we celebrated Sergio’s 30 year anniversary with Zachary’s! Sergio works predominately at our Rockridge and North Berkeley locations, occasionally popping over to Zachary’s on Grand Ave as well. He’s pictured along side of Chodon, who you might recognize from last month when she celebrated her own 20 year milestone. Hignio, who you can find at Zachary’s Grand Lake, celebrated 20 years with us on September 23rd. Originally hired for Rockridge and Solano, he is one of our core kitchen members at Grand Lake. Last, but certainly not least, Antonio B rung in 15 years on September 27th! Antonio was originally hired in 2006 for our San Ramon location (alongside Frank and Antonio G from last month!). You can now find him making your delicious pizzas at the newest Zachary’s in Downtown Pleasanton. Congratulations to these three amazing employee-owners who, quite literally, help hold us down across the Bay  ❤  Most importantly, a HUGE thank you for their combined 65 years of dedication and commitment to excellence!

It’s here, it’s here, it’s here!

The Grand Opening for our newest Zachary’s in Downtown Pleasanton!

 

Friday, September 10th is the official Grand Opening for our Pleasanton location! We are SO excited to be in Downtown Pleasanton and are enjoying meeting and serving our new community. To celebrate the day we will be donating 20% of profits from September 10th to the Pleasanton Partnerships in Education Foundation!

Pleasanton Partnerships in Education Foundation (PPIE) supports all 15 Pleasanton schools, all 14, 500+ students, and all 800+ teachers and staff to ensure high quality education in an equitable manner across the Pleasanton Unified School District. As stated on their website, it takes a community to grow strong schools and raise leaders of the future.  By providing critical staffing support and grants at all Pleasanton schools, PPIE’s vision is to enable teachers and students to innovate, excel and serve to the best of their abilities both in the classroom and in the broader community. For more information please click HERE.

Please join us this Friday at our brand new location featuring a full bar with signature cocktails and craft draft beer, an ample patio facing Main Street, and, of course, the award-winning pizza you know and love! Best of all? You’ll be helping us support a phenomenal organization dedicated to enhancing the learning experiences across the Pleasanton Unified School District.

Zachary’s in Pleasanton: 337 Main St, Pleasanton (925) 600-0089

August saw the celebration of THREE employee-owner milestones for a combined total of 50 years of Zachary’s experience!

Antonio (pictured with some of his favorite art) and Frank celebrated 15 years with us this month! Both joined the team in 2006 when we opened in San Ramon. You can now find Antonio lending his expertise to the dining room crew at our new Pleasanton location. Frank is our fearless leader (see: general manager) of Zachary’s in Pleasant Hill! We celebrated Antonio on 8/14 and Frank on 8/29.

Chodon became a part of the Zachary’s family in 2001 when she was hired at Zachary’s on Solano Ave. Those who are regulars of our Berkeley location may recognize Chodon from our kitchen crew and seen her hard at work making yummy pizzas. We celebrated her in all her glory on 8/21.

There aren’t enough words in the dictionary to express how thankful and appreciative we are of these three and all they do. They are amazing, wonderful, awesome, great, and holy smokes are we lucky to know them.

Congrats Chodon, Antonio, and Frank on your milestones! WE LOVE YOU! ❤

It’s here, it’s here, it’s here! The Grand Opening for our newest Zachary’s in Downtown Pleasanton!   Friday, September 10th is the official Grand Opening for our Pleasanton location! 

Fifteen years ago, we opened our third location in San Ramon. We felt so warmly welcomed, and it was an amazing and exciting time as we found our feet and began serving in our new community.

Sunday, July 25th was our last day of service there before we began our relocation to Downtown Pleasanton. It is such a bittersweet time for us, but one also filled with joy, excitement, and gratitude to our San Ramon community who we hope to see down the road in Pleasanton!

*We do not have an official opening date for Pleasanton at this time. We will be focusing on the move, setting up, and getting settled with our crew in our new location.

 

After 15 wonderful years, Zachary’s San Ramon will soon be relocating to Downtown Pleasanton, as we were unable to reach agreeable terms on a lease renewal with property ownership. We want to sincerely thank the San Ramon community for their continued support since we opened in 2006.

We expect the next few weeks in San Ramon to be filled with bittersweet reminisces of all the special moments and memories we have made and shared together. San Ramon does, and always will, hold a special place in our hearts. We look forward to serving our valued customers in the upcoming weeks and connecting with all of you. Many of you are not only customers, but dear friends.

We are excited to be joining the vibrant Downtown Pleasanton community and we hope to see our San Ramon friends there! We hope to begin service near the end of July or beginning of August. You can expect to see the familiar faces you have come to know from San Ramon at Zachary’s Pleasanton, and be welcomed as warmly and happily as you have all these years at our San Ramon location.

Please check back for updated information in the weeks to come.

We will be closed on the 4th of July to celebrate with family and friends. Planning to have a pizza party of the 4th? Be sure to order your half-baked pizzas for pickup today through Saturday to finish off on Sunday! We hope you have a safe and festive holiday. All locations will be open normal hours on Monday.
