Happy Joe opened the first location in the Village of East Davenport on November 16, 1972. The combination of innovative products, friendly service, and a family-friendly, fun atmosphere proved to be a huge success for Joe and our Happy Joe’s franchisees. Since then, Happy Joe's still continually researches and develops new and innovative food concepts that provide uniquely delicious, family-friendly food offerings, particularly pizza. Our goal is to ensure we always have Best-in-Class products available to successfully satisfy our ever-inquisitive guests always evolving taste profiles and to provide our business-minded franchise owners a competitive advantage.
