             PIZZA INN WILL DEBUT NEW EXPRESS  CONCEPT AT NACS SHOW

NEW PROTOTYPE FEATURES EXCITING NEW DESIGN; LOWER INVESTMENT AND OPERATING COSTS


THE  COLONY, TX - September 14, 2004 - Pizza Inn, Inc. (NASDAQ: PZZI), announced
it  will  unveil its newly redesigned Pizza Inn Express  concept at the National
Association  of  Convenience  Stores  (NACS)  Show,  October 17-20 in Las Vegas.

The  new  Express  concept  features  a simplified menu that reduces opening and
operating costs, and reveals an open design that allows customers to better view
menu  items.  The  new  concept  is  designed  to  significantly reduce start-up
expenses  and  can  be  purchased,  installed and operational within four to six
weeks  in  existing  convenience  stores  or  other  non-traditional  locations.

"We are very excited about these improvements in the operating system as well as
the  lower  investment requirements for our new Express concept," said Pizza Inn
CEO  Ronald  Parker.  "We  expect  a  strong  level  of  interest  from  c-store
operators."

Pizza  Inn  currently  has  more  than 70 express locations and the new concept,
designed  by  Darren  Sumrall  of  Dallas-based  GHA  Architects,  significantly
repositions  Pizza  Inn  Express  .

"Our  goal  was  to create a totally new image for Pizza Inn Express  locations,
one  that  sets  it  apart from every other competitor in the express category,"
said  Sumrall.  "We  accomplished  this  by  creating  an exciting and energetic
concept  that  also  sells  great-tasting  pizza."

"This  new  Express  concept better meets the needs of both the customer and the
operator,"  said  Michael  Iglesias,  Pizza  Inn  Vice  President  of  Franchise
Development.  "It  is  not only more visually appealing, but also affordable and
easy  to  maintain.  And  the NACS show provides an ideal time to introduce this
concept  since  we  plan  to  focus  on  implementing it in convenience stores."

Pizza  Inn,  Inc.  is  headquartered  in  The  Colony,  Texas,  along  with  its
distribution  division,  Norco  Restaurant  Distribution  Services.  Pizza  Inn
represents over 400 restaurants with annual sales of approximately $170 million.
