This week on The Hot Slice Podcast is Chip Myles. His passion for the pizza business and his customers radiates through this episode.

Chip Myles opened Myles’ Pizza Pub in 1978 in Bowling Green, Ohio. The pizza pub's family business hospitality, unique style of pizza, and late-night hours earned a loyal fanbase among the Bowling Green community and beyond in Ohio, leaving a lasting legacy behind when they closed in 2016. The Myles family moved to Greenville, SC, where they re-opened Myles’ Pizza Pub in 2019. 

Chip, now in his 70s, still mans the kitchen every day the pub is open and serves as keeper of the secret sauce. Though Chip shares restaurant owner responsibilities with his wife Bridget and daughter Meredith, he remains the sole keeper of the secret sauce. The new pub gets visitors from their Bowling Green era almost every day, and ships their pizzas nationwide for those who can't make the trip.
