Is it my imagination or have papa john's changed their pizza sizes in last few weeks?

The xxl is 12in but I'm sure it was bigger before?

12 slices in an XXL. Pizza size is 15.5 inches. They dropped half inch back in about 2018.

Best value pizza per square inch is actually Pizza Express if your store delivers.

But anyone who pays full menu price for a pizza should have MUG tattooed on their forehead

£20 for a pizza are you mad!
I just order pizza from one of the local indian takeways, most of them use fresh dough bases as well rather than the pre made frozen ones.

Italian pizza from an Indian take away...

Except no one pays £20 for a pizza

Papa johns is great but you should only ever pay ~50% of full price.

My local kebab house does a dirty big pizza. Tomato and cheese base, stack of doner meat, onion, peppers and ladles of chilli sauce or garlic mayo over it. A proper guilty pleasure!

With score twice half price, you can virtually guarantee half off every week

Ohhh yea baby.

I'm going to admit something, I've not yet to date had a doner meat pizza, I've had plenty of doner kebabs.

I really must do it next time I have a takeaway.

I used to really like a PJ's 'the works' -mushrooms -olives +extra italian sausage +extra cheese

but since i moved a couple of years ago i'm a 10 mile drive away from my nearest so no delivery here

Are we talking about Papa John's Stafford? It's on the Just-Eat app so thought it was an indie place like Big Bite, Slices, Pizza GoGo etc. Never heard of it as a chain, but if it is, then my bad!

Papa John is a Franchise like KFC and Mcdonalds.
You pay a lease and rent for the shop and have to buy their products.
