Arni's - Delicious Pizza & Excellent Customer Service-Indiana Lafayette, Pine Village

Arnold “Arni” Cohen opened the doors to Arni’s in 1965, at the Market Square Shopping Center, in Lafayette, Indiana. Originally, the seating was a little over 100 people. Within 10 years, Arni’s, located in Market Square, was one of the largest and most successful restaurants in Indiana serving pizza and a variety of menu choices, with seating for almost 500 patrons. Since then, Arni’s has 17 locations throughout Indiana.

In February 2025, Arni’s celebrated serving Indiana for over 60 years, from 1965-2025. Arni’s, located in Market Square, Lafayette, IN, is now owned by Arnold’s two sons, Brad and Kurt Cohen. I have learned that Arni’s has a philosophy, “To serve great food at reasonable prices, by employees that treat customers with respect and a smile”. This philosophy has led to the succession of Arni’s at the Market Square location and others.

Arni’s restaurant cares about their community. They believe if you take care of your community, in return the community will take care of you. They take pride in the way they care for their employees, customers, families, and friends. They serve delicious pizza, breadsticks, sandwiches, pasta, a variety of salads, desserts, soup & chili, and they offer a kid’s menu. I think that Arni's has “The best pizza around”!

Our family enjoys the local Arni’s restaurant, located at 101 Washington Street, Pine Village, Indiana (at the four-way stop). The owner, Randall Bramer, prepares delicious pizzas. It’s a pleasure to talk with Randall and his staff each time we visit. We have always experienced excellent customer service and delicious food, from Arni’s in Pine Village, IN.

Delicious Pizza and Excellent Customer Service

They have had a rough couple of years, with the expansion of the shared gas station/convenience store, reducing their dining area in half, an inflation causing supply costs to increase, and the road construction on US Highway 26, which took all most a year to complete. Even though their business slowed down during the tough times, our community has been supportive of Arni’s restaurant. To lose Arni’s would be devastating and an unfortunate loss to the town.

It has been extremely difficult, but 2025 seems to bring hope back to the area. Randall Bramer has done an excellent job managing Arni’s, encouraging the community to return through the drive-thru, and seems to always have a positive outlook through tough times. Randall’s son, daughter, and loyal staff have been incredibly supportive, helping to run the business. It is truly a family and community business that has led to the succession of Arni's in Pine Village, Indiana.

Our favorite pizzas to enjoy with family and friends are sausage, pepperoni, and ham (or what we call “Meat Lover’s”), the Maui Zowie, the Deluxe, and a one topping pepperoni pizza. We always ask for nacho cheese and marinara sauce. We can't help ourselves. We are dippers! If we want something light or for lunch the next day, Arni’s Texas BBQ, Ham and Cheese, or Arni’s Junior Salad is delicious. You can’t go wrong with any selection on an Arni’s menu.

We “Live Life Loving Arni’s Pizza”! We highly recommend that you stop in, to enjoy Arni’s restaurant, located in Pine Village, Indiana, as you drive through town. Randall Bramer and his wonderful staff would appreciate your business and enjoy meeting you.
