EARLIER:THE Gympie Pizza Hut is set to shut its doors for a major refurbishment, but when the doors reopen it will be without the sit down restaurant side of the business.

This will come as devastating news to Gympie's many die-hard Pizza Hut fans, who since the restaurant opened in 1992 have been able to enjoy dine-in 'all-you'can-eat' pizza, pasta, salad and desert. 

The Gympie Pizza Hut is one Queensland's five surviving dine-in Pizza Hut outlets and Gympie's closest thing to Sizzler, and a place where memories have been made; whether it be birthday celebrations or the first parent-free outing at night. 

Pizza Hut staff have been informed of the changes and The Gympie Times is working hard to find out when the change will take place.
