Back in January of 2022, Bridgeport’s Main Street corridor added to an already nice lineup of restaurants with the opening of East of Chicago Pizza. Bridgeport High School alum Jeffrey Chalfant, who at the time had already opened the national chain’s first location in Shinnston a few years earlier, found a home for the second site in the former MPB Print & Sign Super Store. It is the building sitting across from the Benedum Civic Center that was also the former home to the Bridgeport Dairy King and Bridgeport Dairy Queen.
