80s-90s Pizza Hut was peak. I will for sure be visiting the Zanesville location when new (old) design is ready. Eleven total locations in Ohio will be rebranded.

Will they sell high school kids beer without ID like they did in my HS years?

We used to get dropped off at the movie theater/bowling alley complex just outside of town the years before we could drive and after movie or bowling we’d all walk to Pizza Hut and enjoy it all. I would always do their cheesy garlic bread and put away an order of that appetizer…drink about a pitcher of Mt Dew….then we’d all walk about 1.5 miles home.
Times are a touch different now compared to 1988….but that Pizza Hut is still hanging on

Only if there is a cigarette vending machine at the front entrance.

I haven't had it in a while so I have no idea what it tastes like these days. It was so good back in the day.

Can I use my old "Book It" coupons from elementary school for a free personal pizza?

they get it here for the kids at school for pizza parties and its inedible. Nowhere near the way it was in the 80's-90's. Definitely private equity turned it into the cheapest pizza they can make while still calling it pizza.

Agreed, 80s/90s Pizza Hut was dang good. Current is BARELY better than the cardboard Little Caesars sells.

Honestly think 80s/90s Hut was maybe the best pizza ever. Probably just nostalgia glasses making me say that, but it was fucking great back then. The crust was killer.

To be fair, I haven't had Pizza Hut in a few years, so it may have dipped below Little Ceasars crap.

The only time I get chain pizza now is for kids birthdays. It seems Dominos has been the standard, but I did crush Papa John's and Pizza Hut a few months ago in back to back weekend parties.
Thankful that Chicagoland has a plethora of local options. Little Pops Trattoria of Lisle is like 4 min from our house. Incredible.

Of the three chains I would say papa John’s tastes the least like cardboard and the ingredients seem to be more fresh. This past year my school went mostly with donatos which honestly is also crap but I would put above Pizza Hut and dominos

Where I live we try do do family owned but our go to spots are Tommy’s, black dog, Gallos, Enricos, or Emelios. If we do chain it would probably be Mikey’s late night slice.
