It was open only a few years before Stillwater native Richard Dermer and his wife, Marti, decided to buy the business and see if he could make a go of this new food craze called “pizza”.
Richard’s simple philosophy was that making employees happy at their work and providing a great pizza would make for happy workers AND customers. Loyal OSU student employees worked their entire college careers (and then some) at the restaurant, and we STILL serve pizza to customers who ate at The Hideaway when it opened on 3rd Street all those years ago!
