Papajohn pizza

Our Story

Are pizza sizes shrinking?!

I always choose large pizza size papa johns when working around the country, as they are easily the best available. But on delivery of my usual medium size from this store, I have come to the conclusion that pizza sizes are shrinking, or is it just a Scottish thing? This was the smallest medium sized Papa Johns pizza I have ever come across, & I have seen a few, believe me!! It may have the correct number of slices, but much smaller overall than any previous medium I have come across.
Same high price, however.....

Smaller Sizes in GCC Countries

I have recently order two medium papa john's pizza sizes. What was delivered were two 10 inch pizzas, one of them was missing ingredients. After confirming on line that Papa Johns medium pizzas were 12 inches, which was later confirmed by email from the corporate office, I called to complain. I was told that in the GCC countries the Papa Johns restaurants do not use the company standards and it was okay that I received a pizza which was smaller than expected. I am only left wondering what other company standards are not adhered to in the GCC countries.

Papa John's Prices

Papa John's (officially known as Papa John's Pizza) is a fast food pizza restaurant that offers delivery and take-out services. They are the third largest pizza chain in the United States. Papa John's prices are comparable to those of its two largest competitors, Domino's and Pizza Hut.

There are 2,600 Papa John's restaurants in the United States and over 4,000 in the whole world. Although the restaurant primarily serves pizzas, they also have breadsticks, cheese sticks, various-flavored chicken wings, desserts, and extras like banana peppers and jalapeño peppers.

Pizza is important. It saves us from hangovers, covers our guilty treats and spoils us on the bad days. It is cheese. It is tomato. It is life

Papa Johns pizza sizes

"Pizzas are healthy for you if you don't eat too much of it. You can't eat five or six slices.

"But if you eat one or two slices it's very nutritious. A slice or two is good for you."

The smallest size large papa john's pizza which costs £6.99, has six slices, the medium, at £8.99, has eight slices and the large, at £9.99, has 10 slices.

The comments came after the show's business presenter, Adam Shaw, asked whether Mr Schnatter was concerned about the government's anti-obesity campaign impacting on sales.

Mr Shaw then joked: "So don't eat a whole pizza is the advice of the chief executive of Papa John's?

"I'm not sure your investors would want to hear you tell people don't eat too much of our pizzas."

Mr Schnatter, who founded Papa John's in 1985, appeared on the programme to discuss how his company is successfully weathering the recession.

The restaurateur, from Jeffersonville, Indiana, said the firm posted a record sales increase of 13 per cent in January, and had a 60 per cent uplift this week alone.

He added that he was in London this week for an annual franchisee conference to urge more people to buy into his £1billion business, which is the third largest pizza delivery chain in the UK.

During his speech at the Institute of Directors in 1991, Mr Ratner branded one of his products as "total c---" and joked that some of the firm's earrings were "cheaper than an M&S prawn sandwich but probably wouldn't last as long".

The gaffe wiped £500million off the value of his business overnight as customers boycotted the chain.
