    Neither - both overpriced for what they are.
    I'd rather stick a shop bought pizza in the oven myself and know it'll be steaming hot when I want to eat it. 
    All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.

    Pedant alert - it's could have, not could of.

    Spot on. Plus you can pimp a modest offering to suit your own taste.

    My issue with take-always is hygiene practice (or lack of).
    No man is worth crawling on this earth.

    So much to read, so little time.

    We often get flyers for Dominos through the door and their prices always astound me. Even with the frequent 'buy one get one free' type offers they still charge considerably more than what I'd be prepared to pay.

    Try both and decide which one you prefer.

    Its all personal preference, I had a Dominoes a week yesterday, thought it was ok.
    To be honest I prefer a pizza from a local takeaway, better quality than Dominoes/Papa Johns but a little more expensive. 
    Failing that it must be a shop bought 1.

    If I had to choose one over the other I'd choose Papa Johns, the vegetarian pizza is much nicer than the Dominos one :) but preferably I'd by a deluxe veggy from Aldi and pimp it up :smiley:

    Neither

    Cooked from fresh in the wood fired pizza oven in the garden is the best ever

    Failing that, then Gordon Ramseys pizza cooked in a frying pan

    The former Papa John employee I work with can go-on for hours about how pathetic Domino’s are.  Can’t say that I find his former employer’s products that much better but he can fairly get us a lot of them for next to nothing on our occasional beer n’pizza nights!

    The biggest cost for them is the delivery (staff, insurance and vehicles). It will always be cheaper to collect and make your own. Also of course delivered food is subject to VAT, food you cook yourself generally has no VAT.


    To answer the OP, depends on a lot of things, I generally prefer Dominos as I like their dough and the flavour of the toppings etc. But Papa Johns is slightly closer to me so often delivers quicker. Pizza Hut Delivery was always the worst for cold food and bad service.
