I ordered a fairly large order on January 3 2025 They were quite busy, Especially with the new year, just getting. Unfortunately, when they delivered the order, it was incorrect and not what I ordered at all. Definitely put a damper on the night, however I was told by the manager they would comp my order for next time and received a serious apology. Fast-forward to February 24 2025. I called to collect on my credit, and was told it was never put in the system. What the heck, come to find out that was due to being understaffed and they forgetting to Put the credit on my account. The lady who answered the phone tried to take my order, but because they were so busy and she could not find my credit, she ended up asking me to just come up to the store. I thought to myself why am I going to the store but I’ll go ahead. When I got there the gentleman by the name of Ken greeted me and was quick to take my order. He listened to the problem that I had, and I was taken back when he said you know what, I got this. It’s hard to find people who take responsibility, and accountability for things that they may not have personally caused, but willing to go the extra mile. Thank you Ken.

The 50% off deal is fantastic! Last night we order a "works" pizza and with pickup it was only $11 with tax. I was there just as thet boxed it so we had it as fresh as possible. Dammm it was good!!!! It felt loaded with toppings. It was so good, we ordered 2 days in a row. Very impressed!

I tried papa johns for the first time the other week. It was so good, I had to get another a few days later! I will admit, the price of what I paid for was a tad expensive. But I did receive an amazing, super super delicious pizza that was *filled* with toppings and cheese. When I say I want extra? I mean extra! I love it so much, I will happily pay extra, I don't mind, as long as the extra cheese delivers. And man, they sure do. You have the first layer which they load up with toppings all the way to the edge (amazing), the cheese gets the first layer. Then after your selection of toppings. They do *another layer* of cheese. ❤️❤️❤️🌟🌟🌟 It's so perfect. It's cheesy goodness. I've had competitors and when I order extra cheese, no one compares to Papa Johns. They have the best extra cheese, easily. I ordered a large pizza with a lot of toppings, which is the prize winner here. But the cheese sticks? I would give a "meh" on it. Don't hate it. Don't love it. They just seemed... Flat? Not much going on there. Maybe it's the one I ordered. Just regular cheese sticks. TLDR: Top notch pizza quality, baked evenly, and the cheese is very generous and loved every bite, even the crust! Almost forgot the sauce that comes with is perfect for the crust, and I'm not even a crust guy haha.

Do NOT order the boneless wings of any size. They looked like nuggets from a certain fast wood place drizzled with BBQ, and they tasted horrible. Took 2 bites, and that's all I could stand. Tossed in garbage!

This used to be one of the best Papa John’s around, but it seems to be going downhill. The last few times we had it, our pizzas are sloppily made with hardly no toppings or cheese. If I wanted that, I’d go to Dominos. This Papa John’s also never seems to remember the extra garlic cups we order. It’s as if they forget to deliver them on purpose so they can steal money from me. Do better, Papa John’s.

Typical chain pizza, which is a hit or miss. Depends on who makes your pizza that day. Can't go wrong with the 50 percent off when Wilds, Twins, Vikings win! Usually, the only time we order. For the full menu price, i would rather purchase from the local pizza vendors, which, in my opinion, are much better.

Well when I showed up there was a lot of people waiting to get their order, I was waiting to place an order. Once I got to the front I was told to wait so they can hand out all the other pizzas, after that had a restructure getting dough and pizza boxes set up and then they took my order. I placed my order and that was fine and they were very good at updating me where the pizza was at in the process but waiting close to 30 minutes just to place an order and then another 30 minutes to receive my pizza. I would really appreciate it. A soda or something while waiting for that long would have been nice but other than that it was good

Found a hair in my food but not before I had to pull it out of my own mouth. I have short brown hair and this was a long black strand. I took a bite and it came out of the dough as I was chewing. Very gross

The delivery driver was great. Pizza, meh, not so much. Please learn how to cut & I paid 57.00 for cheese to be placed on my entire pizza, not just a few pieces. For a 10.00 tip this is unacceptable.

I ordered a pizza expecting the usual side of jalapeño peppers for a bit of spice, but what I received was ridiculous! The pepper included was laughably small - barely enough to even taste, let alone enjoy. For the price I paid, I expected better quality and portion sizes. Disappointed and reconsidering future orders.

The pizza we got did not have any sauce on it. I was so disappointed as I love papa John’s but this pizza at this location was bad! I was not called to say they were out of sauce. They made me pay for this pizza with no sauce. Do better because I love the taste.

I’m pissed!!!! I placed order at 3:15 to be picked up at 5:15. Husband was there for an hour and order is not even make yet and the guy told me it’ll be another 45 mins. This place should stop taking order if they know they cannot catch up or make it in time. It said will be ready in 24mins, how is it possible???!!!!! Straight up dishonest. My kids were so bumped out and papa John definitely ruined their Halloween night!!!!

I had better pizza than papa johns and it's not the same sorry to say. There is better pizza places.

Pizza arrived cold. According to their animation that shows where the pizza is during the process, it sat minimum 20 minutes dying. I'm sure it was because they are now using door dash. Food was cold despite being delivered in an insulated pizza carrier. It would be nice to know upfront if that is who is delivering the pizza. We used to love this place and ordered frequently, but the taste and product has gone down hill. Called once to voice a concern and was told management would call back. They never did. Owner obviously doesn't care about their product, service or consumer.

Ordered online and waited one hour for a cold pizza to be placed on my front steps and the driver didn’t even ring the doorbell. Sorry I pre tipped and received poor service.

We were right in our backyard keeping an ear out for the delivery driver. It was very obvious we were outside. Instead of calling the phone number on the order (or poking their head around), they left it on the cold concrete out front. I was watching the app and it was flashing in the one prior to "delivered". The cheese was all separated like a Lunchable and was an insulting amount. The crust was soaked all the way through and literally dripping. The cheesesticks and pizza boxes had cheese on the inside lid. The pizza was folded over on itself. The garlic parm breadsticks' box was drenched in oil (about a third of the way across the side/ bottom). All of the oil and seasoning fell off the tray and left the breadsticks dry. It's honestly as if someone dropped the entire order on the ground. We are SO disappointed. Not doing that again.

Our delivery never came and Papa John's ruined our midnight kick off event for our high school soccer team. I picked Papa John's because they offer delivery until 1am. Clearly that is a lie. I called and placed the order and went in to the store to confirm the order and delivery the day of the event to make sure they knew it was legit and answer any delivery questions. Pizza never came. It was devastating. I went back to the store the next day to try and get my money back. Not sure yet if I still have a credit card charge. This has been a terrible experience.

The pizza and cheese sticks are great, but the ordering system needs to change. I placed an order for pickup hours before the pickup time and arrived 15min past that pickup time. When I checked in I (and a few others as well) was told because the system puts those orders into the queue 10-15min prior to the requested pickup time, it might still be 30+minutes because they had lots of regular call-in orders as well. I asked if would have been better to just place a regular order than ordering ahead of time and found out that if it's busy, you might have better luck not ordering in advance. Why even offer ordering in advance if you get a worse experience?

6/26 I’m extremely disappointed with my order tonight. I specifically requested a well-done pizza with light cheese and well-done wings. What I received was the complete opposite—both the pizza and wings were severely undercooked. The pizza had far more cheese than I asked for, and the wings were actually cold inside, making them completely inedible. If customer requests are going to be ignored, what’s the point of offering customization options during the ordering process? It’s frustrating to pay for food that doesn’t meet basic expectations, especially when the employee is expecting a tip at pickup. By the time I was reheating the wings in my oven, I had already given up. This was a waste of money and time, and I won’t be returning. Quality and attention to customer requests should be a priority

Came to this restaurant to pick up two dash orders. I was a couple minutes before the pick up time. They told me that it will be a 15 to 20 minute wait I ended up waiting 30 minutes if not more just go back inside and they’re still not ready, but making other people’s orders people walking in and out so unprofessional I would never order from here and I hope I never get another dash order for this location. Very unprofessional need to work on your communication skills and customer service skills because they suck
