Toppers

Toppers Pizza Place is a franchise with seven locations all over Ventura County.


Today, we went to the new location on the Channel Islands Harbor. It's an awesome location. There was fog and marine layer, but the Toppers sign shined bright. It was Friday night, it was the beginning of a long weekend, and for whatever reason, the place was PACKED. We got lucky and found two booths for ten people.

There were only two soda machines for the entire restaurant. The lines for each got pretty long. But behold, the future of soft drink dispensing:

They are pretty gnarly machines. With the touchscreen menu, you first select which brand you would like.

From there, you have different flavors from which to choose.

We're talking vanilla, orange, lime, and cherry Coke.
strawberry, rasperry, cherry Lemonade,
grape and peach Sprite,
and many more!

Of course, you could make these flavors with a regular dispenser by mixing the flavors yourself, without the long line, but technology makes it so much easier...

For desert, a freshly baked cookie topped with vanilla ice cream. They call it a Pookie. I think Maureen named it, haha. There's only one flavor, and the cookie comes with nuts. Pizookies from BJ's are better.
