But if they close at 11 why should you be able to order a pizza at 11
"Closing" means the service that's being provided is stopping. Then once the place is closed is when they do things like cleaning up for the next day. So if a place wants to have clean up finished by 11 but they need 30 minutes to clean, then they should be closing at 10:30 instead of 11 because that's when they are wanting to stop the service.

I'm pretty sure the cutoff for most pizza places for orders is 15 minutes before closing so you're wrong. And also you clearly havent worked in a restaurant if you think that's ok to do. Anyone who shows up at a sit down restaurant 5 minutes before closing is a prick
I'll explain it a bit for you since you didn't grasp what I said in my post.
First off, I didn't say it's how it is, I said they should close 30 minutes earlier if they wanted to stop making pizzas at that time. Because, like I said in the response just above, the closing time is when you stop providing the service. And once again, just so you have less of a chance to miss it this time, I'm not saying that's how it is, I'm saying that's how it should be.
You clearly think you know about people's lives because you don't read posts correctly, but I have in fact worked at multiple restaurants. If you go to a burger joint 2 minutes before closing, they're still going to make your order. And I'm feeling this might be a foreign concept to you, but you can start cleaning things before closing while still being able to take and make orders.
Oh, and once again, just so you might read it this time, this is how it should be.
Ah how predictable... "I've worked at many restaurants!!!"
I even mentioned pre closing in another post of mine so that's funny that you accuse me of not reading lol. Still, clearly I understand customers will come in regardless. But anyone with any brain cells or courtesy will realize, "wow I'm an asshole and waited too long and shouldn't go last minute." I wouldnt treat that person any worse than another customer but I would judge their character
