Two more retail companies look doomed

Dominos can’t be far behind when you can get far better pizzas for less.

Pubs have pizza outlets in their gardens these days too.
It's never about quality with these huge chains though, it's about service and convenience. Greggs is by far the shittest place to get a pie on any high street (in the north, at least), but it's convenient, fast and consistent. Last time I went to Pizza Hut, I just wanted to quickly pick something up on the way home and I had to wait 40 minutes before they'd made it. They're shit.
 
Dominos charge crazy prices as well. Fuck knows why lazy greedy cunts spend as much as they do on pizzas.

Pizza was the food stuff of peasants back when they were invented in Italy back in the day, cheap grub. Its basically cheese on toast.

How it got to being viewed as fancy and so pricey is mental. I think anyway
Didn't realise Italy invented peasants. No wonder they thrive on easy, basic foods...

I have one occasionally but it must be over a year since I last ordered a Domino’s pizza. Haven’t been in a Pizza Hut for a long time. They were good places to take the kids when they’re up to about ten years old, but even they realise it’s nothing special eventually. And adults don’t go in because it’s full of kids. I’m guessing people are realising £40 (?) for a family of 4 is something they can easily save on.

A proper Italian pizza is definitely worth having though but that’s not something you can get at PH or Dominos.

I think as a society we've had our brains melted by convenience and marketing, it's why if you need bread you'll now drive to the supermarket and not a bakery which sells the good stuff. There isn't even a big price difference, we're just hardwired now to go to Mcdonalds if we fancy a burger even though there's a million better options.

It's mad actually how good quality stuff isn't a business winner. Any burger place using fresh ingredients will beat Mcdonalds but how much profit does Mcdonalds make a year, I've seen a ton of really good burger places fail and go bust. We're addicted it seems to shite.

And people also wonder why most of the population is obese? It's a bigger problem than alcohol for me because you can choose not to drink but you can't choose not to eat and making good choices with food is really difficult nowadays.

Not sure I’ve ever had Pizza Hut apart from their bottomless buffet at lunchtime.

The last time being in about 1998.

Pound Bakery was slightly worse than Greggs, but again in about 2005, the last time I had either.

Absolutely this.
More and more pubs have small independent caterers providing quality products at reasonable prices. My local has a pizza and a pint at £9. The pizzas can also be taken away for £6.50. Quality cask beer and fantastic pizza. Why would I go anywhere near Dominos?
Also Guest caterers once a week providing quality food from all parts of the world.
It’s the future!

It’s not the cost of the base, it’s the increasing cost of the pineapple topping, which is mandatory for those with a discerning palate ;-)
