I don't know about the US, but in Europe Domino's is ridiculously overpriced. Like, if you got a 50% off coupon, you are approaching normal pizza prices. And it's not even that good.
I remember having one in Norway, where the location was at a waterfront. Their dough tasted like it was bathed in saltwater ๐คฎ
Straight up, dominoes has the cheapest pizza deals of any pizza chain in the state in my area. Not by a lot. Their quality is like C-tier, but I don't give a shit, it's pizza, it's still decent.
I can get a large three topping pizza for $8 USD compared to $10 at Pizza Hut or $11 at Papa John's.
They're perfectly low-cost for some mid pizza but state-side.
Do you only have chains? No normal pizzeria?
Nah, I live in an area with lots of older Italian immigrant families actually, there's a few pizza shops, sandwich shops, and import markets that have way better pizza.
Domino's is when I'm being a lazy fat piece of shit and grabbing cheapo garbage on my way home from work or something. Rittino's has way better food, but their large pizza costs $25
Lol, a normal sized three topping pizza here in Germany at Papa Johns is like 17$. Domino's is not better with ~15-16$ though.
MFW, Chicago pizza prices are higher than Germany and people are saying Europe has the most expensive pizzas, while other Americans are paying less than $10 for a pie.
Yea, that's a common thing with American fast food joints overseas IME. Whenever I've gone to another country and visited the local McDs or whatever it's always so expensive compared to the states.
Here dominos with coupon is often the cheapest around, not the greatest, but decent enough especially with one of those 50% off coupons
McDonalds seems to have become an exception, as it tends to be cheaper in the EU than in the US
Itโs the same in Japan! Smallest pizza you can imagine at 3-5x the price
Almost all the fast food ive had in europe (France, Spain, UK, Italy, Germany etc..). was better than here (Canada), except for Domino's. It's always bad pizza and really overpriced.
Here it's not the best pizza, but super consistent and the cheapest around with those coupons.
Huh, Domino's in my area has a perpetual coupon for $7 2 topping pizzas if you buy two.
Dominoes in the US is terrible. Is their quality better outside the US? Otherwise I donโt see how they could compete charging twice as much as other pizza places.
Awful in Australia.
They got a fancy menu but it still all smells of old oil or something.
Based on my sample size of the one Dominoes restaurant in Nijmegen (Netherlands): it is better outside of the US. Still not great, but better. The chicken shoarma pizza could possibly be considered 'good' if it were fresh, but that location only does delivery so...
I donโt think most people in the US would know what chicken shwarma is. The concept sounds good but Iโm sure dominoes would find a way to fuck it up.
