Pizza parlor to open in Momence
A pizza parlor is slated to open soon in Momence.
Marcotte’s will be at 118 E. River St., and it will feature Helen’s original pizza recipe. I’m told that Helen’s once was a popular restaurant in Momence, but closed about 10 years ago.
I’ll share an opening date as soon as I hear of one. So far I’ve been told they hope to open sometime in September.
If you remember Helen’s pizza and can tell us more, please leave a comment below.

Ahhh, Helen’s Pizza. Brings back memories from my high school years going there with a big group of friends and sharing pizzas and laughter and good friendship. Yes, it was ages ago, but having another chance to try that recipe is something to look forward to.

My Chrildren were raise on Helen’s pizza and the garlic bread. Helen started her pizza place in Bradley in the 50’s
moved to Momence in the 60’s. Pizza from Helen’s was the first food I have delivered to my home. It was great.
