I agree with most others in this thread. Here are my thoughts:
1. Papa Johns: It's all right, I prefer local chains better but a few of their pizzas are really good like the Bacon Cheeseburger pizza. Always get the thin crust.
2. Dominos: Like the thin crust style pizzas every once in a while. Years ago, you couldn't pay me to eat this crap.
3. Pizza Hut: Gross as hell, all kinds of additives and crap put into it. I hate this shit, will not eat it EVER!

Worked for all 3 chains at one time or another, made the most money working for Papa John's, I own a franchise of theirs so I'm biased on them, Domino's was around long before Papa and it took them how many years to say their sauce and dough sucked and made a big deal about it on TV then lowered the price when the economy went sour 2009-2010, Hut has gone from making their own dough daily in the morning to frozen crust and sauce is a vacuumed sealed pack then you add spice and water to it. I can eat a Papa John's pizza on occasion and since we are talking chains it was the thread title, there is my 2 cents worth and knowledge behind the 3 companies. John is a great person to work for and with - he's as real as the commercials in real life too.
As far as pizza I'd rather eat, New York style, brick oven or old fashioned shut door ovens with brick slates, the higher temp ovens 800 degees that cook in 3 mins are awesome if you like a lil char to your crust or toppings, and folding it in half like others mentioned is awesome, it's old school. Chicago style pizza I can eat too, and it wasn't meant to be held in one hand, it's made for a knife and fork. There are some great places in Chicago to eat a Chicago style deep dish, but the best ones made, take 30-35 minutes to bake properly, it's a buttery/richer crust, and a couple slices can fill you up quickly, unless you are as big as Charles Barkley was behind his diet, LOL!!
Great NY Pizza and you can't go wrong, Grimaldis across and under the bridge, and the original Ray's Pizza on 1st street before it moved, Connecticut has a couple great places similar to Grimaldi's.
Also one of the best places as a college student making a wager from time to time was through a pizza restaurant in Omaha back then called Johnny Sortino's, it has different folks behind their ops now - my have times changed!!
Later!!

Tried Totono's, Lombardi's and Patsy, all 3 awesome!! Prices vary depending on the pie!! Ray's on Prince Street is the bomb too!!
Good stuff!!
Now who's ordered pizza since this thread started?
It's all you Joker!
Thanks ya'll!
All 3 taste like crap, These are all chains. Bottom of the barrel. Prefer the local mom and pop's. People that would eat these and call them good would probably eat anything.
Of chain pizzas I would go with Toppers. I guess they are not everywhere though. I can't even remember the last time I had Pizza Hurl, err Hut.
Not many Toppers around, they do get good reviews, this I know because I have too, LOL!! Lots of franchises out there, Lil Caesars for $5 hot and ready (pure garbage) it makes Tombstone look like a $100 pie, I'd eat a Palermo's frozen pie from the local grocer first before buying from most major pizza chains.
On the Left Coast, Round Table Pizza I heard was very good, only tried their salads, odd, I know.
In Florida, there's a small chain called, "Flippers" Pizza of all names, I guess they use Dolphin, the mammal, as meat on their pizzas!! :0030
Hungry Howie's isn't bad, very sweet pizza sauce, sweeter than Papa John's sauce, they also butter their crust in several flavors, I guess any cover up of crust taste is good, Domino's copied it :mj07:
Later!!
Going out to get pizza now!!
