Just thinking of the pizza I had in Rome... other world stuff.... hmm

You can't beat the pizza in Italy, I've never had a pizza come close to it anywhere else.

Had a pizza tonight strangely enough, ordered it from this new kebab place in town that do all sorts. 8inc pizza's just £4.00 each! when it arrived it looked okay and smelt tasty. But when I tasted it, i suddenly realised straight away dominoes were the kings when it came to pizza. The pizza tasted so sickly. Good service and fast but unlikely I'll be ordering from them again. What puts me off Dominoes is the price £17 a pizza is just a scandal for me. Especially when you can buy a full meal like an indian or chinese for just £4 or £5. Pizza's are a rare treat for me.

That's insanity!

 

A large 2 topping pizza at Dominos here is $8. I think that's roughly £5.

Had pizza tonight. Place called pizzaville here in Ontario.  Better than dominos

I have a Pizzaville close to me. Had it once and thought it was just average. Of course even average pizza is still pretty good  .

[AyewJoking]

place called caspians does buy one get one free. sure it may not be refined as other pizza but its junk food so who cares?

Pizza Plaza in Narborough. 

 

Absolute slab of pizza. Unrivaled. 

[Nugent]

Surely nobody actually ever pays full price for a Dominos? There's always so many offers on, either coming through your letterbox or found by a quick google search.

If you collect I think you can get what you want for £10... full price delivered is £15+.

Dominoes are probably the best. Pizza Hut second.

 

Pizza is generally expensive unless you get offer codes then again I tend to go feed 2 for £23 which includes 2 pizzas, wedges and bottle of drink 1.5L

Asda make your own from the deli are strong. £3.70 ish for 14", you'll do well to finish it yourself. Takeaway pizza is one of the biggest scandals going imo.

On their site here they even have a coupon section to order from. 

 

I don't even know what their "regular" prices are.

Think it must depend where you are, the Dominos near me is actually pretty decent. The £3.50 asda ones are ok, bit bland I think sometimes.

 

Speaking of Dominos... anyone see the picture of them buying wedges from asda for £1 a huge pack. Obviously then selling them on for £4 a go I bought the Asda ones as a test, and they really are about the same.

I work in a restaurant, and this isn't uncommon loads of times we have ran out of onion rings or buns etc and someone has had to run to tesco to get more, to tide us over until we got a delivery come in. 

 

YOU shouldn't do it but all companies care about is the £

Pasata is good, or tinned tomatoes with some herbs, salt and pepper

I normally get from the local kebab house as there's something about Turkish grease that I find more appealing than your Italian style vendors. Location is the biggest pull for me as I don't trust anywhere I haven't physically entered. Would never order off justeat from some random place based on price. I'd say takeout pizza market is predominantly 16-24. I used to order all the time in my late teens but prefer a curry now.

I've read this as you think £4 for an 8" is cheap. I'd shop around. I get a 10" with chips for £3
