Yeah, I was trying to be funny, but there are legit reasons to buy chain store pizza. Sometimes it's just way cheaper, or it's open later or something like that.

I usually end up eating it a couple times a year.

Lol. I took it seriously because that is a legitimate argument. There are quite a few here that absolutely abhor dunkin donuts bagels.

And which of those usually come first? My post never appears if they stop typing. Instead of just answering the god damn question, we have to hear about every joe schmoe's hole in the wall pizza place, which has exactly nothing to do with the OP's question. It's not difficult.

lol, calm down. The OP brought up local pizza places vs. chain pizza.

Papa Johns is shit so I vote Pizza Hut.

That said, I haven't ordered a pizza from any chain in years...maybe even a decade.

dominoes is by far the best currently, followed by papa johns. pizza hut is absolutely disgusting and i would NEVER pay for it and i regularly turn it down when offered.

I do too. I used to buy bagels at Sonny's in South Orange, NJ. You would walk in there and you could see the bagels boiling away in big vats. They would dump the fresh bagels into wire baskets right in front of you. They were delicious. Pretty much any other bagel maker in NY will be the same way.

DD bagels are like stale rolls compared to those things.

Hungry Howie's > Papa John's > Pizza Hut's Pizza Mia > Domino's > Pizza Hut (other)

I almost always get local pizza or make my own but sometimes I have a hankering for inferior pizza. Hungry Howie's isn't available anywhere near here, so the few times I've had the opportunity to get it I've enjoyed it (in NC and MI). Pizza Hut's Pizza Mia is pretty good for chain pizza, and their pepperoni pizza rolls are artery cloggingly good.

Try this place if you are in NY.

1st ave one is better IMO. But make sure you don't ask them to toast it. My coworker asked to toast it by mistake and they gave him the stinkeye and said with a thick yiddish accent, "You want toast, you go to Dankin DOOnuts!"

I voted Domino's for "best chain pizza" not because I like the pizza - I don't particularly - but because they are the closest to me, they deliver quickly, they have lots of coupons/deals. We use them occasionally because relatives from out of town, or friends who are complete idiots, prefer the chain pizza places and it's silly to argue with them.

If you live in the greater NYC metro area and you buy chain store pizza or bagels from dunkin donuts, you are a certifiable fucktard.

This. Because there are so many great local places - it's not like you have to look hard for one. I'm looking at one from my apartment window as I'm typing. One of the good things about NJ.

Round Table :thumbsup: (too expensive but tastes best)

I also would take Costco Pizza above Dominoes or Pizza Hut.

Papa Johns, though we dont have any around here.

The Meats w/ Double sauce, double meat, double cheese. Winning.

Pizza Hut is my favorite of the chains. Unfortunately, Seattle has craptastic local pizza, so I eat from the chains all the time now. When I lived in Philly, I only ever ate at local places.

Almost up to 50 votes, not bad. Dominoes was taking a real beating earlier, had thought after they revamped their pizza a bit they'd be more popular.

Tried Domino's once after their ads started running. I couldn't tell if their recipe had improved at all because it took them so long to deliver that it was disgusting by the time it showed up.

Never again.

Pizza Hut out of the big places, and it's not really close. I guess Papa John's is usually decent. Domino's is disgusting.

pizza hut. the new dominos doesn't really improve much. it went from disgusting to tolerable.

i love pizza hut fresh. the fake cheese is awesome. that's why america loves cheezits also.

The pan pizza is just awesome. It's almost deep-dish like and oily. The hand tossed dough is weak.
