Pizza Hut, Papa Johns, Domino's OR local takeaway (lemmy.world)

What is your pizza chain of choice?

Pizza Hut - Probably my favorite in terms of franchises since I like their salad bar and where I live I'd say their prices are more reasonable

Domino's - ehh I've only had them twice in my entire life and I think the price is a bit much for what you get, there are some cracking deals though that top Pizza Hut

Papa John's - So I hear from lads and ladies that this one more "cheaper" than the first two but I really can't say as we don't have any Papa John's in our city except for 1 small one along a small street.

Local Takeaway - Probably a 2nd close favourite since the takeaway I use always deliver fresh pizzas with a decent amount of toppings, not every takeaway shop who do pizzas are gonna be the same A+ quality though..

So my fellow pizza enjoyers, what's YOUR choice or listing?

I bounce back and forth between 2 local places. With a simple food like pizza, the little differences in the ingredients and how they're prepared come through moreso than in a complicated dish.

The one place has a chewier crust, the other has a breadier crust. One has a sweeter sauce. The place I originally went to when I came here made a more well done crust that I didn't like, but it's one of the more popular places in town, so some people definitely prefer it. With local places you're not stuck with a single flavor or style and you can get what you're in the mood for that day.

With that said, sometimes Domino's or Pizza Hut takes me back to childhood memories, which helps out the flavor there. I never had Pappa John's as a kid, so I didn't like it much as an adult, but the other 2 remind me of being a kid. They're probably not arbitrarily better than Pappa John's, but they get the nostalgia bonus.
