Review of Papa John's Pizza Delivery

(Update)>>You are viewing the most recent post. Click here to start from the beginning and see the other reviews of which pizza place has the best delivery.

This is the review of
Papa John's Pizza Delivery. This is my final review of the three most popular pizza delivery chains, Domino's, Papa John's and Pizza Hut. I ordered ten pizzas from each of the major chains (30 pizzas) and scored them all using the same method. As I said before, this is my opinion of pizza delivery chains in my area and you may have a different experience or opinion.

Papa John's

Ease of ordering = 8
Price of pizza = 6
Value of available coupon offers = 4.5
Speed of delivery = 7
Attitude of delivery driver = 8
Appearance of pizza = 7.5
Taste of pizza = 9
Taste of leftovers the next day = 7.5

Additional notes:
Papa John's Pizza had a very friendly telephone operator and they were very helpful.
I was not able to find very many coupon offers and the regular price was higher than the other pizza chains.
The delivery time was decent.
The delivery drivers were very courteous and friendly.
The appearance of the pizzas were good, but often had "shifted cheese".
The pizza tasted delicious and was better than the competition, in my opinion.
The leftovers were good too, but the crust always seemed to get too crispy.

In my opinion, Papa John's had the best tasting pizza along with other advantages over the other pizza places. See my other reviews for Pizza Hut and Domino's Pizza to see how they compare to
Papa John's Pizza Delivery.

This concludes my personal study of the best pizza delivery chain. As I said before and will say again, this information was based on my own experience. I am not endorsing or promoting one particular pizza chain over another.

Now go and order yourself a pizza. You can even do it online these days (I bet there's a link to a pizza place somewhere on this page). Better yet, order three pizzas, one from each place and see which one gets there first and tastes the best.

Review of Pizza Hut delivery

Welcome to the review of Pizza Hut Pizza delivery. If you are just now joining this review, I have already given my score for Domino's Pizza. This blog consists of reviews of the three most popular pizza delivery chains, Domino's, Papa John's and Pizza Hut. I ordered ten pizzas from each of the major chains (30 pizzas) and scored them all using the same method. As I said before, this is my opinion of pizza delivery chains in my area and you may have a different experience or opinion.

Pizza Hut

Ease of ordering = 5.5
Price of pizza = 7
Value of available coupon offers = 6
Speed of delivery = 8
Attitude of delivery driver = 6
Appearance of pizza = 6.5
Taste of pizza = 7
Taste of leftovers the next day = 7

Additional notes:
Pizza Hut usually had a long hold time and somewhat friendly/helpful telephone operators.
There were lots of coupon offers though not many applied to what I wanted to order (1 large pepperoni pizza).
The delivery time was very fast on average, though the restaurant was not far from my house.
The delivery drivers were pretty friendly in my opinion.
The appearance of the pizzas were pretty good and appetizing.
The pizza tasted good and was always hot.
The leftovers were just as good the next day.

Overall, Pizza Hut's pizza was a good meal at a good price and I would recommend them. See my other reviews of Papa John's and Domino's Pizza to see how they compare in the competition for best pizza delivery.

Which is better? Domino's, Papa John's or Pizza Hut

I'm sure all of you reading this have heard of Domino's, Papa John's and Pizza Hut as they are each well know national pizza chains. If you haven't, then congratulations on getting out from under that rock. This review will give you my definitive answer as to which one is best based on my own scoring method. Of course this is my opinion of pizza chains in my city. Your's may be different.

My
Best pizza delivery chain scoring method:

Each of the ten deliveries from each of the three main pizza chains (30 pizzas total) were given a score between 1 and 10 in the following categories:

Ease of ordering
Price of pizza
Value of available coupon offers
Speed of delivery
Attitude of delivery driver
Appearance of pizza
Taste of pizza
Taste of leftovers the next day (reheated according to their instructions)

Now this is not exactly a scientific study on pizza delivery, but each order was evaluated using the same method. One large pepperoni pizza was ordered each time unless a special offer included something else such as breadsticks or softdrinks for free or for a minimal charge.

I don't want to bore you with the exact details of each pizza delivery so I will give you the average score of each chain along with additional notes that I think are important.


The next post will contain my review for Domino's Pizza.

Reviews of Pizza Delivery Places Domino's, Papa John's & Pizza Hut

Welcome to my complete review of the three main pizza delivery chains, Domino's, Papa John's and Pizza Hut. It will cover the quality the pizza, service, speed of delivery and how courteous the drivers are. This review is based on my experience of ordering ten pizzas each from Pizza Hut, Papa John's and Domino's over a 6 month period. That's a lot of money spent on pizza, but I hate to cook and it's all in the name of science (or pizza or something). Each of my pizza ordering experiences are documented using the same method every time so that everything is fair and as scientific as possible.
