Client Success StoriesWichita Favorites Pair Up & Tap Into New Potential

To elevate both the interior look of the space as well as the customer experience, the Depot team made several upgrades. The main floor bar was expanded and TVs were added to accommodate more seating and make for some great sports game-watching. They also added a pool table, dart machines, and a Golden Tee to the upstairs to appeal to families. All of these updates have contributed to a better overall customer experience and people coming to enjoy dinner before concerts and sporting events at the nearby Intrust Bank Arena.

Jamie Verbeckmoes, co-owner and founder of Ziggy’s Pizza, said, “We made numerous improvements to every space in the restaurant, from the kitchen and back of house, to the main dining room and bar, upstairs bar, patio, restrooms. We think customers who haven’t been in since the remodel will really appreciate the changes that we’ve made. Our team worked hard to create a space that we felt would be a place that people would want to keep coming back to again and again.”

As with all our restaurantss with all our restaurants, we’re constantly looking for ways to make the customer experience better and better.. We are a family-owned and operated company, and we all live here in Wichita, Kansas. So, you can bet on us always finding new ways to make our restaurants the best that they can be in every facet of the business.””
