If chain pizza isn't an argument against capitalism, I don't know what is. Only a global corporation could take something as basic, delicious, and beloved as and completely ruin it. There is nothing more soulless and disgusting than a Papa John's pizza. The last time I had it I literally threw up because I was starving and I forced myself to eat a slice. Just one slice and like 4 minutes later it came back up again.

Is it really impossible to streamline just regular-ass pizza, with no chemicals and processed garbage in it? Like holy shit it's just dough with some sauce and cheese slapped on top, lol. But somehow, they find a way. It's actually quite impressive when you think about it.

Local pizza is almost always better than any chain

Figure out the best local pizza place in your area and you never have to worry about mediocre pizza again
pretentious pizzeria selling "gourmet" pizzas for $15 when i can get pretty much the same thing from a chain store for $5.

Pizza Hut is indisputably better than Papa John's. No fucking contest.

Are you in the US?

Here in the UK, the reverse is true. It's basically:

Good independent places > Papa Johns > Dominos > not so good independent places > Pizza Hut > the worst independent places.

It does make more sense then that the chains would be so prevalent. Can't really explain it here though.

Nah Pizza Hut

They used to be my favorite cause stuffed crust. Now papa John's has it too. Wish domino's did cause they have the best regular crust.

I like Hunts Brothers gas station pizza better than Papa Johns.

I worked in a gas station 20 or so years ago and we made Hunts Brothers pizza and at the time you just couldnt get a better pizza for the price. They changed the recipe or something somewhere down the line though and it was terrible. Havent really had it since then

Not really, no. There are tons of mediocre to bad local places.

Pizza Hut is the worst.

Like...objectively. They're the most expensive, they taste worse than most chains, and just overall aren't worth it.

Pretty sure Papa John's is more expensive, but it's been a while since I've been in either. I've enjoyed Pizza Hut -- and they had some decent promotions back when I had one in the area -- but Papa John's I never liked.

It's weird how many people shit on Little Caesars. Maybe the one near me is just better or something because they're always really good.

But I know people who actually like Greasa Hut so I guess taste in pizza varies wildly

What makes more sense... that only one Little Caesars store exists on this planet that has edible pizza and it just so happens to be by you or.. You just enjoy shit pizza?

I work at a Pizza Hut. It's fucking trash pricing.

Unless you constantly use the app where they have decent deals, you're paying a premium for pizza.

A large with just cheese is about 18 bucks. Stuffed crust about 20+.

It's absurd.

every pizza place is expensive unless you use deals

at Dominos, which is where i order pizza from the vast majority of the time cuz it's about 3 minutes from my house, the difference between their menu prices and coupon prices are ridiculous. a large pepperoni at menu price is over 18 bucks, but if you order online, there's a coupon you can do for a large 3 topping for carryout for 8 bucks.

A large pepperoni the same size as the ones at Pizza Hut(14 inch), is 13.99 where I am.

At my pizza hut, it's 19.99.

Both without deals, before taxes.

hmm, i just checked on Pizza Hut's website for the location near me, which is a little ways away, and in their pizza builder, a large pepperoni on original pan crust is 17.49 before tax. so a buck cheaper than Dominos where i'm at. but the deals aren't as good. they have a similar deal as Dominos for a large 3 topping pizza carryout only, but Pizza Hut's is 11.99 compared to 7.99.

Interesting. Must have regional pricing.

Given that it's a franchise, I imagine the pricing probably varies? The one that used to be near me always had a few decent deals, none of which required the app, but I also usually ate in.

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]


I miss when they used to constantly offer half-off deals when, at the time, I would get a pizza for $6 or $7 (although it must have just been a medium, which was enough for me)

Papa John's is trash. I will only eat it if it's free. I remember back when I was in grade school Little Ceasars was awesome but that fell way off. Dominos just gives me brutal heartburn immediately so that's out. Pizza Hut is my go to when I want a trashy pizza. Truth be told given the option of those 4 or a Jack's frozen pizza I'd do the frozen pizza 8 out of 10 times.

Anyone tried Marcos? They aren't nationwide yet but they have 900 stores in 35 states according to their website.

I think their pizza is average, but they have decent salads, which none of the other chains have. I rank them right there with Dominos.

Fast food is designed to have pretty much the same level of quality at all of the locations. The consistency is the reason why people go to them. I can't speak for the other guy but every Little Caesars I've been too has terrible pizza. It's more like they put cheese on some cardboard and stuck in in the microwave for a few minutes than pizza. None of the other big chains are amazing but they at least taste like pizza for the most part

All are not great but Papa Johns > Pizza Hut >>>>> Dominos, with the caveat that Ill eat Pizza Huts stuffed crust pizza any time, any day, because I hate myself.

Little Caesars is not in the same category as those three, it scratches a different itch, which is for super cheap pizza you dont have order ahead or wait for.

It depends on what you're getting. Like I said, my total ticket price was under $8. You might be able to get more of an overall discount with another promotion, but I wanted to stay at a certain price point.

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]


Personally, I've only had their H&Rs (which again, haven't been $5 anywhere in my state for probably 10 years now) and I enjoy those... some of the time. I've randomly have a craving for it and then I'll be good for a month.

"Papa Porta Johns", lol
Yeah I haven't eaten there in a while but their crust is kinda cardboardey now that I think about it. I consider that a more minor offense though since the other ingredients will basically overpower that anyway. My main issue is their sauce which is super sweet, like bbq sauce or something. It's not awful but it isn't good either. Pizza Hut's worse I think because at least with Papa John's I'm not worried about diarrhea from the extreme grease (Little Caesar's pan pizzas are about as bad in this respect)

Pizza Hut's gotta be the worst for me but tbh, I haven't ever had pizza I wouldn't eat it was so bad, unless I just didn't like the ingredients on it
