J.T. Costelloe's Pizza Pub and Grill

About

Let us tell you a little about ourselves… On June1, 1996, after retiring from LLCC, John “Coz” Costello opened Coz’s Pizza & Pub in a converted pole barn in Curran Illinois, just a few miles west of White Oaks Mall on Route 36. Mrs. Coz served as a bartender and Tim, then 14 years old, assisted in the kitchen, washing dishes and busing tables. This restaurant sat about 35 patrons including a bar for five. Within a few months it was clear the place was too small to accommodate the crowds. With standing room only, patrons chose to place carryout orders. One particular evening, a family of four was observed hovering over the hood of their car, dining on a 16” pizza.
