BOTTOM LINE: meh pizza, great service
TIP/S: Pick-up is free
...WHO: party of 1
WHY: free pie offering
WHAT: (Deets) *Light rant follows
Being Black, I have not patronized this company since it was uncovered that the Founder hurled the N-Word in disgust. Then Sprint offered a free pie as a perk of its reward program. I chatted with a friend about the moral/ foodie conflict. She reminded me he was fired as the CEO. I reminded her that though he is no longer the face of the brand, among other things he still likely has stock options and continues to reap the benefits from the sale of EVRY pie behind closed doors, and, very much in his off-shore accountSSS.
Ultimately, I decided that because it was through a 3rd party, and free, it wouldn't put money into his pocket, (though of course I don't know what arrangement Sprint worked out for this deal; payment, in-kind referrals), so I redeemed the offer.
I ordered online a large Pineapple Pizza, light cheese, cut into squares. It was decent. Not the best I've had as far as Papa John's Pizza goes, blander than in earlier years. The accompanying peppers and garlic sauce helped. The food earned *Ed McMahon voice* 3 stars.
WHEN: Snowpocalypse (more like, Lightrainpocalypse) January 2019
WHERE: take away
HOW: car/ bike/ public transportation B49, B44-SBS
bus trains
BATHROOM: roomy did not use
WIFI: did not use
DRESS CODE: as you like
SERVICE: The service was 5 Star. I walked in, said my name and received my pizza within the timeframe they stated. It wasn't cut into squares. When I voiced this, my pizza was promptly taken to the "back", cut and returned to me with a smile and a friendly farewell. So with the food & service average...4 stars.
