Pinky's Pizza is in search of new owners as current owner Tim McKay leaves the business after over 20 years.
"It's going to be a strange feeling the day I go in there simply as a customer," he laughed.
Mr McKay bought the Sturt Street business in 2014 but now his children have finished high school and he is ready to slow things down and relax.
"My partner and I have decided to take a step backwards and spend a bit more time together outside of the pizza shop."
Do you remember this classic Pinky's ad?
Mr McKay couldn't hold back the joy in his voice as he discussed some of his favourite parts of his time at the institution.
"There's a lot of loyal customers in Ballarat, some of them I've been making their pizzas for 15-20 years.
"You just meet a lot of great people who come through those doors and who work with you behind the counter."
