These are all chains, obviously. Personally my two favourite pizza places are actually local, but of the chains, I'd say my favourite is Pizza Hut, followed by Little Caesars.

Also, for bonus points, which do you think is the worst?

Little Caesar's is my favorite of the chain places, but honestly, they're all terrible -- except for Gumby's, which is this franchise that only exists in college towns. Seriously, if you live near a Gumby's, try it out. It's mediocre (but still better than chain) local quality pizza at chain place prices, but technically part of a chain. They're like the 5 Guy's burgers of pizza, except cheaper and less common.

When I'm not near my university, I prefer local places; some of them suck, but even a sucky local place tends to be better than chain places.

Edit: And when I say cheap, I mean $5 for a large cheese pizza. Gumby's rules.

Shame there is no sarpino's; seriously if you have one near you, you are doing a disservice to yourself by not ordering from there.
But from the list I guess pizza hut just because they have stuffed crust. (Though I have to say fresh only, is it just me or the pizza hut's cheezy look like plastic after a day in the fridge?)

I haven't eaten at most of them, and Papa's was catered to one of my schools occasionally, so they skimped and they weren't all that great. My choice is Pizza Hut, you say they suck, but some people don't have good restaurants to go to for pizza.

Well, I take that back, there was a little local place call Mazzio's that was good, haven't eaten there in ages, might have to do that next time I'm in town.

Seriously, is this just a US/UK difference thing? I'm in the UK and Dominos pizza is lovely.

I go to an Aussie only chain called Eagle Boys, they are pretty good but they often oversauce their Pizzas making them awful runny.

Lately I've started going to a little local place called Fusion Pizza, its got some pretty wacky ideas but they are great and delivery is free if you are a regular.

Just a quick question. Have you ever had an authentic NY-style pizza? Like, from around the are. Because there is no comparison. It's important for understanding your frame of reference. There's no shame in being pizza ignorant.

Domino's wings are serviceable, so I vote for them for that. I live in New Jersey, I can think of 4 local pizzerias in my town alone. My preference is for "Vinnie's Pizzerama".

The options are clearly Canadian influenced. I've never even heard of most of these, and I've been around a lot of the U.S. Seriously, who would buy "Boston Pizza". Boston isn't particularly known for pizza...

I constantly thank God that I've never been to New York, no.

My own pizza. Seriously, the best pizza is the one you make yourself. It's so easy to do.
Mine: No meat (I don't like meat on pizza for some reason), lots of veggies. Ridonculous amounts of sauce (either a homemade sauce or a really good one from the store).

...yeah, I like to cook. So what?

Well your pizza ignorance is excused then. And what's so bad about New York? I mean yeah some parts of it smell like trash and/or pee, and the subway is kind of gross, but it's New York.

Hey, we aren't all Canadian here, you know. I'm in central California - 1000 mi/1600 km is a long drive for pizza...

Which means my favorite big pizza chain, Round Table, isn't even on the list. So of the options given, I'd have to go with Pizza Hut (Little Caesar's if I'm feeling cheap).

Domino's Pizza (Obligatory joke option).....thanks, thanks a lot.

My favorite pizza chain is Dominos pizza, I lurv that stuff like it was candy.
I have actually been spreading the word that Dominos is a lot better now. A few years ago I would agree with the "obligatory joke option" thing, but Dominos is really good now. I actually rank it just below Papa John's now (which I voted as my favorite).

Out of those options, the only ones I have access to are Pizza Hut and Domino's. Of the two, Domino's is better. Shame there's no "Other" option, because Pizza Castle tops the lot, at least IMO.

Only have Pizza Hut, Papa John's, Little Caesars and Dominos. Of the 4, Little Caesars is so greasy it's disgusting, Papa John's has tough crust that's barely chewable and uses little sauce, and Pizza Hut...no, just...no. So I voted Dominoes, because the Dominos where I live is rather tasty.

Well there's the incredibly high cost of living, the municipal income tax, a populace that acts like theirs is the "greatest city in the world" rather that a dying relic of a bygone era that's decades past its prime, $10 for a pack of cigarettes, the phrase "Mayor Bloomberg", I could go on and on...

You just about made my day, and it's only quarter of 3 in the morning.
