John and Becky DesJardins are known to take time off in the winter, this year they didn’t head for warmer weather. Instead they closed Hometown Pizza and Pasta and reopened as a restaurant with a different spin on things. It’s something they’ve been wanting to do for quite a long time and John is a baker at heart. While you can still pick up a pizza pie, you can now get other types of pies and a wide selection of baked goods as Hometown now offers a full service bakery. The pasta items are gone, but now they’re offering breakfast sandwiches. Hometown’s hours have changed — they will be open 8 a.m.-8 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday. Customers can dine in from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. and after 3 p.m. only takeout will be available.
