Are you a fan of one or the other?

I did not put others down such as Papa Johns as I think these two are the 2 most popular of all pizza chains.

Personally from past experience, Domino’s is more expensive than Pizza Hut but does offer some alright deals every now and then.

Pizza Hut includes in some places a free salad bar to have at your hearts content before the main Pizza dish and refillable drinks on the side. ( I don’t know if Domino’s has this as we only used to have it delivered)

I feel you get more options with Pizza Hut and some of the crusts aren’t bad compared to it’s rival.

Plus, I prefer thr logo and older Pizza Hut building designs compared to Domino’s.

What are your thoughts, fellow pizza enjoyers?

Are you a Domino’s Demon or a Pizza Hut “The Hutt”?

    I prefer local shops, but we do occasionally order the black box one at dominos or the Marcos magnifico. Haven’t had hut in years.

    I echo the suggestion to support local shops, but I do occasionally go with a larger chain… It’s not better pizza than the local shops it’s just a different pizza.

    I tend to prefer Domino’s over Pizza Hut and especially over Papa John’s (something about their formulation tends to upset my stomach way more than any other pizza… Plus the former CEO is very active in politics and not in a way I approve of).

    To my Domino’s tastes significantly better … Pizza Hut used to be great, but I’ve been thoroughly unimpressed every time I’ve tried it in recent memory.

    There’s also local variance in these chains; some towns have a better Pizza Hut than Domino’s 🤷‍♂️

    Domino’s tries to keep their ingredients fairly similar globally, but Pizza Hut tries much more agressively to adapt to local tastes in certain markets—like Thailand. I don’t know who they poll, but thousand island sauce with imitation crabs is not where it is at, & the frozen dough sucks. At least Domino’s uses corn meal + a shit ton of garlic to mask being lower quality. That said, I had Pizza Hut in Hanoi on Christmas a few years ago & it was honestly was one of the best pizzas I had ever had—from the crust, to zesty sauce, to the right amount of burn on the cheese. So… 🤷

    I’ve worked at Dominos and I like it alright, my family seems to prefer it, but I’ve always like Pizza Hut significantly more. I live in an area known for pizza though so when I actually get pizza I usually just get it from the mom and pop place literally across the street from me, it’s way better than both and cheaper too. Not a lot of topping options but I was always a pepperoni pizza girl anyways.

    FUCKING Papa John’s. Cheap bastards don’t want to have employees so all their deliveries go through DoorDash, and those drivers always steal part of my order. PJs blames DD, DD blames PJs, and no matter what I’m the one left screwed.

    But more to your point, Dominoes > Pizza Hut ever since PH stopped dipping their crusts in grease. If I wanted to eat healthy I’d go be a rabbit or something.

    I have had pizza hut in my lifetime im pretty sure but can’t remember when. I have had pizza hut in the last decade so I guess it would win. I do feel its better but both are not as good as real pizza.

    Pizza Hut doesn’t exist in my country, Domino’s does. I’ve eaten at both in other countries and prefer Pizza Hut, but I prefer independent pizza restaurants to either of them.

    If we’re talking strictly flavor, I guess I prefer pizza hut. Almost never order them though because if I’m looking for that style, Domino’s is noticably cheaper for pretty similar quality. If I’m in the mood to spend money on a good pizza, I’m going to a local place so pizza hut is just at a quality/price intersection that I don’t find myself looking for.

      Pretty sure both chains offer vegan pizzas. So then it’s only an atrocity against Italian cuisine (not because it’s vegan, but because you could’ve chosen a proper pizzeria).

          I guess that wasn’t entirely true, there’s one about 10 miles away but they only do pizzas on Thursdays and they’re so popular you sometimes have to order days in advance.

          Its not traditional pizza, either. Its like an actual pie. The meat lovers would make Henry VIII wimper in fear.

          It’s pricey, but it’s good shit.

          Edit: they also do “sammiches” and they’re also pricey, but good shit.

    I’ve only eaten at Pizza Hut once and it was in Shanghai, in 2008. It was fine. Never had Domino’s. There are excellent Italian pizzerias all over Europe, so I never feel the need to go for a chain.

    Local always, except when the dominos sends a coupon occasionally. There are no pizza huts here anymore. We would eat there as kids though, because of that read and get a pizza deal.
