    a mom and pop hippie non-franchise if there's one near you or in your town.

    a franchise is a franchise and what you get is what you get.

    i'd rather do business with a really small really independent business then any kind of franchise or corporate retailer of any kind at all.

    order pizza? i'd rather get off my butt, and if i'm gonna spend like for pizza, i'd rather go to an all you can eat sushi place.

    Our local is Donatos. I like their pizza but have not had it in quite a while.

    There aren't any chain pizza stores in my area. But I have 6 or 7 local pizzerias to choose from, and all of them are ten times better than Any chain store.

    Here in Boston, no one buys pizza from a chain. Dominos, Pizza Hut, etc., sucks compared to the local mom-and-pop Greek or Italian places.

    I wish we had a great pizza place like the ones in Boston.

    I went with Pizza Hut and it was fine. The corporate greed won out again. But next time I'll order from Tony's and even it out a bit :devil:

    I voted and I also advise a hometown pizza place. I hope that helps because I know you have to be really hungry by now.

    You could always make your own pizzas.

    I guess that you could get one of the grocery store pizza crusts, then put your own sauce and toppings on it.

    It depends on what your priorities are.

    Low cost? Convenience? Quality? I guess it also depends on how good a pizza chef you are.

    Getting a plain cheese pizza and then putting your own toppings on might be the best in terms of cost, quality, and convenience combined. They usually charge quite a bit for each additional topping.

    Getting a grocery store crust and then adding a jar sauce and toppings might be even better, though less convenient

    oh, I suppose that you could also go the frozen pizza route. there's also pizza from scratch, but that's more of a pain.

    I certainly hope that you waited to get my advice on this before ordering

    Dunno, but not Dominos, because the British boss is a prick who says all British people are lazy. (Not sure who he expects to buy his pizzas then..)

    I don't order many pizzas. Mainly Indian/Chinese etc. Pizza hut is good, but I like independent makers.

    I hope you are snacking a little until you decide. Your blood sugar will start to get really low before too long if you don't. Also try not to expend a whole lot of energy.

    The average human can go about 3 weeks without food. If we don't hear about which pizza you ordered before 3 weeks is up, I'm calling an ambulance.

    I know you already ate your pizza but everyone us posting like you haven't yet and I thought I'd follow along.

    pizza hut is awful. and i'm in no way one of those "if it's a chain, the food is bad" people; i've just never liked pizza hut pizza since i was a kid.

    not that i'd turn it down if it was free, but i would never agree to pay for it.

    also, pizza hut does deliver. unless you just have the one location in the company that doesn't, but if there's only two pizza places in town, i can't imagine that they would be stupid enough to allow tony's a monopoly on pizza delivery.

    I don't like tony's ver much. Decent subs. mediocre pizzas.

    i like pizza hut's pan pizza but it gives me a killer stomach ache every time.

    So i'm pretty sure we're from the same town and the best pizza here is two guys but I don't think they deliver.
