"Happy Camper in Wrigleyville will be donating all sales for the rest of this week to the family of Hermilo Beltran, a custodian at the pizzeria who was shot and killed in a nearby alley on his way to work." - Naomi Waxman
"There are 31 establishments participating this year including Happy Camper." - aimee.levitt
"Happy Camper prepares to open its Wrigleyville location, marked with a giant silver glittering sign and glittery back stairs. Main attractions include three outdoor areas, a front patio visible to Cubs fans, a back patio with a campsite feel, and a rooftop deck with TVs and rocking booths. The restaurant serves the same thin-crust pizzas and salads menu as the Old Town location and offers weekend brunch. The interiors feature tons of TVs, twinkle lights, a DJ booth, and hallowed out RVs, reminiscent of Wrigleyville bars like John Barleycorn’s." - Ashok Selvam
"The Chicago team of Josh Iachelli and Clay Hamilton are driving their fun atmosphere but serious pizza concept to LoHi, taking over the former home of Stones On 32nd. The 2,801-square-foot replacement for Stones at 3211 Pecos St. sits across from Avanti Food & Beverage and features room for a patio out front and its own parking lot. The existing roadside diner exterior is in keeping with the original Happy Camper’s highway-inspired design, which includes a retrofitted Airstream trailer dining room and tire swing seats at one of the bars. Expected to arrive early 2019, the Chicago menu includes “Happytizers” of meatballs, potato skins and Goat Stix, bread sticks with goat cheese marinara, plus salads, soups, and calzone combinations of turkey, bacon, and cheddar and smoked ham and avocado. The “meat ‘za,” “chicken ‘za” and “veggie ‘za” pizzas are named after friends of the restaurant, so look forward to ordering up a Tim, Curt, Ken, Josh, or the spinach-based Linda, no cheese Mom, and a Canadian bacon and pineapple tribute to Jay." - Susan Stapleton
