Favorite Pizza Chain Restaurant?

For me it's a toss up between Little Caesar's and Papa John's. Pizza Hut's has made me legit sick 2 times so I hesitate to order with them anymore, but their pizza was nothing special anyhow. I like that Spicy Italian specialty pizza from Papa John's, but $5~$6 for a large pepperoni pizza with a fresh, never frozen crust made-from-scrath in-house at Little Caesar's sure runs a good bargain and tastes great, too.

I've never met a bad pizza.
We've had Pizza Hut, they're okay. We've had Domino's, they're also ok. Sbarro's is good. Our best local pizza is a family owned pizza place. But the best pizza I've ever had was one my dd ordered for us in Boston. Course I have no idea what the name of the place was.0 -
Little Caesar's pizza here is sadly inedible. I'm normally of the opinion that any food that hasn't required my effort to produce is "good food" but I'd rather cook than eat their pizza (and that's saying a lot).
Pizza Hut is definitely one of my favourites but I can't allow myself that kind of sodium overdose very often.
#1 chain for me is Pizza Pizza. They were the first to offer whole wheat crust for any size pizza, now they have a good selection of faux meats, plant-based toppings, keto crusts, etc.
Nothing compares to pizza from a wood-fired oven though.0 -
Panago!!

By "here" do you mean in your area because the locations manage your somehow botch their pizzas, or Little Caesar's is inedible for yourself in general?0 -
I've been to Chicago and had deep dish from the likes of Lou Malnati's and one other place (my thoughts on it are low), and I've been to places like NYC and had authentic NY pizza from places like Prince Street Pizza (overpriced mediocrity with rude customer service from people who seemingly lack people skills), and I genuinely mean it when I say Little Caesar's knocks these places out. Just my 2 cents.0

Pizza pizza cause it's what my boy likes
I try not to order from chains cause none are ever very good0 -
I prefer several types of low priced frozen pizzas over Little Caesar's, I think the stuff is terrible.
A few local places are good, Pizza Hut or Papa Johns is ok now and then, and for the better deal and pizza from a chain Papa Murphys. It's a freshly made but cook at home pizza, and beats the other chain stuff hands down if you ask me. I saw the ads for the local one and thought it was nuts really. Why would I go pick up a pizza to cook myself and eat at home? But they have probably been 80-90% of our pizza purchases for the last couple of years.0 -

I live in Chicago, and that deep dish crap is just what we feed to the tourists. Lou Malnati's is the WORST.
Real Chicago pizza is very thin, cracker crisp crust cut into small squares. Often referred to as "tavern-style" and not achievable at national chain restaurants.0 -

I'm over here wondering how people tolerate that deep dish mess that they call a pizza. With the cheese and marinara sauce being on top and the ingredients underneath, it all comes out undercooked and somewhat raw. This video is basically how I feel about it, I just want to chuck it onto the sidewalk or whatever:

Anyway, the pizza you just described? I actually did try some of that one. That one isn't bad.0 -

I gave Pizza Hut one more chance last night. Never again. The crust legit tastes, and has the consistency of, cardboard.0 -

I often forget Sbarro's existence. I'll need to give them another try.0 -

I'm over here thinking about it. You know, that thin crust pizza from Chicago really is kind of good. I'm also looking at photos of Chicago's deep dish. You know that really acidic tasting saliva you get in your mouth right before vomiting? I'm getting that just looking at that deep dish pizza in photos 😬🤣0 -

The Chicago thin crust is even better if you order it "well done". This insures that the crust is crispy and the cheese is browned.0 -
I can't do chain pizza. We have a few legit pizzerias in town and I'm not sure why anyone would bother. The only chain pizza I eat is Dion's which is a large local chain...but even then, their quality has gone down pretty significantly over the last 15-20 years or so with expanding the chain to numerous locations within the metro and across the state.0

Pizza Hut is my favorite. Little Caesar's is my second. Domino's is third. I like Blaze's, and I've never had pizza from many of the smaller chain pizza restaurants like Mod's. I've had pizza locally owned and I like that, too. I love pizza. I'm not picky.0
-
I have no idea if it's an actual chain but I used to throw down a medium cheese pizza from Ameci in no time.
(I think that could mean eat the whole damned thing really really fast...which is what I meant.)
I never knew why people didn't like Dominos. It tasted good enough for me!
(I did not like Papa John's. Something about the sauce.)0 -

My city. Which has two locations, both of which produce the same dismal quality. I can't fathom how they manage to turn out something with so little flavour, I think the box it comes in would probably be tastier.
ETA: And I'm so far from being a pizza snob, one of my all-time favourites is actually a $6 take-and-bake deli pizza from a chain grocery store.0 -
Worst for me is Domino’s …. How that place is still in business I’ll never know!
Pizza Hut is consistent but I’d never call it great. Maybe I should try papa johns0 -
I'm gonna deviate a little. I know Digiorno isn't restaurant pizza, but.. can we admit that stuff is kinda bomb-diggetty? 🍕0

What?? Are you ignoring Tony's frozen pizza? 0

We have six pizza places, five chains and one locally owned, that I know of within a 2.25 mile stretch of here. Papa John's is not one of them but it's within a six mile drive. Anyway, years ago when my dad was down for a visit we asked him what toppings he wanted and since anchovies were one of them we went to Papa John's as they were the only one that had it as a topping, and we ate it and enjoyed it. But this is the man who puts sardines on his frozen pizza and bakes it that way.0

I forgot this place was a chain, but California Pizza Kitchen is actually pretty good1

I like Papa John's, Pizza Hut and Marco's.0
