I've had Pappa Johns once or twice, and it's been pretty good. I'm a fan of Dominos also, since it's dirt cheap and not too bad when you're really hungry.
All chain pizza places are blown out of the water by the local places, however, especially the pizza places here in NJ and the NYC area.

Of the big chains, definately Papa Johns. Locally here in San Diego, a place called The Venetian is wonderful, and in Hawaii a local chain called Boston's North End Pizza is excellent.

Quoting Roadrunner165 (Reply 7): Airport Pizza is excellent
Expensive, but well worth it.
Holy crap I'd love to be a pizza delivery guy if I flew the pizza to people's homes! Does the airplane have a small lighted sign suction-cupped to the top of the fusulage?

I like Papa Johns as best of the big chains.
When I was going to school in Boston, there was a place up the street called Woody's (Hemenway St, on the outskirts of the Northeastern U campus) that has a KILLER 5-cheese. Good salad too.
Randy's Wooster St Pizza is another good chain in CT.
For local joints, there's a place called Rossini's, for which green peppers and garlic are a must!
Hands down, #1 anywhere, anytime was Tony & Ann's of North Chelmsford, MA. Super thin and super sloppy, with a sweet sauce which cannot be repeated. Sadly, they closed in 2002, not long after Tony himself had passed on

I could not agree more, Tony and Ann's was the best I have ever tried. I never knew anyone who could not eat it with out a fork LOL...
If I remember right he opened it in 1948? It was a skit on the Simpons also. I can still hear Tony say "Give some to the kids" meaning the jar he had aside on the pick up window.
Everytime I drive by I still hope it's all a bad dream and he is still open. Every year before Xmas I would order 5 pizzas so I would have them till he opened back up in late Feb early March
If no one has tried Sam's club pizza give it a shot, it takes 10-15 mins to make so I order it when I get in the store and pick it up on the way out.
Family Pizza makes the best around here now in Dracut Ma. IMHO, no one will ever come close to Tony and Anns though

I agree with that wholheartedly, I have been on the West Coast for a quite a few years now but grew up in South Jersey and really miss the diners, mom & pop places and especially panzerottis from Francos in Westmont.
A place in Hattingen/Germany which is called Tasfirinos. The owner is my old buddy Yesmir and he is making the best pizza I know, another advantage is that I don't have to pay the full price there.

what?? You think Domino is cheap? certainly not here! It is nothing but a ripoff here. Anyway it tastes great, but its cheaper to eat at pizza hut, and pizza hut is pretty good too.

The best pizza place I have ever found is called TWO and is located in Zagreb, Croatia. I haven't been everywhere in the world but from where I have been, I like pizzas from TWO the best.

All the frozen pizzas and pizzas from the UK chain restaurants (e.g. Pizza Hut, Pizza Express, Dominos etc) are tasteless and nothing other than a glorified sandwich.
For the best Pizza, you simply cannot beat a genuine family-owned Italian restaurant, where everything is freshly made on the premises, using the finest ingredients, and cooked in the traditional oven.
