Having had a good experience before and with the England game on we ordered pizza expecting it to take hours to arrive, however the food delivery was very quick (within 30 minutes) pizza was piping hot and correct order. Outstanding by Papa Johns 👍

Ordered here three time. No problems at all the first 2 and was very happy with my food. The third time was a disaster. One of the staff was very accusatory saying they have had problems with my address 3 times and this wasn’t the case as the last two pizzas were delivered with no problems. Accused me of not answering my door when the last two times the buzzer was rang with no problems. Said they were going to make a new pizza after an mis-delivery but when the pizza arrived it was cold and chewy. Forgot a bottle of orange on the order also, which had to be delivered 15mins after the pizza was delivered. Disgusting customer service after I was very happy the first two times

We usually go dominos (pure convenience for parking) but papa johns had a half and half deal with free delivery and it was outstanding. Not only do dominos not do the half and half pizza (2 different choices of toppings on each half of the pizza) but the pizza itself was outstanding. Delivered hot, amazing crunchy crust with soft pillowy dough inside but the toppings were rich and piping hot. We won’t be going dominos from now on, papa johns pizza are just better.

Ordered a American Hot pizza to collect. Was part of the deals they had on. Pizza lot bigger than expected for the price I paid. Was well cooked and very tasty. Great dough base. Not a fan of their garlic and herb dip though, nowhere near as nice as Dominos. Great Value

Good service with my delivery. The pizza that I ordered was a garlic base with chicken and cheese, and it was rank. The cheese was absolutely disgusting and the whole pizza smelt funny. The chicken was like plastic and was basically hanging off the pizza. If I come back here I'm getting something with tomato even tho I don't trust this place.

My first and last order. Terrible food potato tots were practically welded onto a piece of tinfoil, Pizza crust was flakey Pizza chef must of stood a mile away from pizza when putting toppings on, And don't get me started on the cinnamon less cinnamon twists, should of just called them dough balls with a drizzle of something that looked like pva glue on. Save your money and stay away 🙂

Cold pizza and dis interest in retaining my custom. Really unimpressed by the product and experience--before-during and after. I was a new customer to here and ordered a pizza on Sat 05th Dec at 7.20pm. Funnily although their funky online system told me it had already been delivered for me to enjoy, I actually received the pizza and 2 sides at 8.43pm. Guess what it was cold. I had 1 slice and binned it..I had been starving however wish I had went to a competitor instead. 1 Hour 20 mins for delivery --really not impressed!! I was then sent a feedback survey within which I promptly placed my 1st and what will be only experience of this place. I would have expected both an apology and also a refund or voucher to reflect the waste of my money and the 3rd rate experience but zero--i do get emails telling me all about fantastic fundraising but clearly they are fine with shocking service. On that basis It will be the first and last time I use Papa Johns Carlisle

Ordered a delivery online and when I had been waiting over an hour I called up and they said they thought it was for collection and it had been sitting out for ages. They did not phone me to ask if I was coming, they did nothing. I asked for them to send a new order and they said they would not but would send the cold order out when a driver was available. Disgusted. They did not give a refund for the mistake.

Excellent. Everything about this place is so far above Domino's it is amazing. The pizza had toppings (anchovies, red chillies, spicy beef) that I could taste, for a start. The base was spot on and the sauce...Amarillo chilli...was fantastic. Now then, Cauliflower Wings. Probably the best things I've ever had from a pizza place. Then there's the Special Garlic Sauce. Blimey! I could have it on anything...chips, toast, sarnies, trifle, Smarties...and I'd order it in pint-form in a boozer. Excellent, including the delivery girl who was brilliant and helpful.

We bought the same pizza here for years and just dropped back in prob 6-12 months since we last ate there, It was an extra large pizza, basically about at least three inches in on most slices had no topping at all, the ingredients and flavours weren’t quite right, it just didn’t taste like a papa johns pizza. It all shame because it use different to be great but I think the ownership changed, so it’s either that or papas johns ingredients and recipes have had a downgrade.

Terrible service. Not delivered what we ordered and when we called were given lots of attitude and they did not believe us at all. We then went to the shop with the incorrect pizza and were told that there was nothing wrong with the order, even when shown our email receipt. We then had to argue with them about the order and how we didn't want what they had sent us until they eventually offered to give us £10 back, which was less than what we had spent on the pizza that we didn't end up getting, so overall out of pocket. Staff had a bad attitude and did not take our complaint seriously.

Both me and my friend woke up the following morning (last Saturday) with proper dodgy bellies...not what you need when doing the coast to coast. Called them up to inform them and see what their customer service was like.....the employee there was helpful but couldn't do anything.

No disputing the food is good from here, but why do they continually ruin the experience with unrealistic timescales? Last night I ordered on line at 1906 and was advised pizza would be ready to collect at 1921, got there at 1930 and was told they had not even started making them. Manager assured me they'd be ready without fail at 1945 so went for a pint. Back at the stated time and had to wait ten minutes more. Every time I order from here it's the same!!!! If the online order system had said ready in 50 minutes I would have been ok with that and not had to hang around for 25 minutes.

I've reviewed this place before, and as ever, the pizza and starters we had last night were great, but thought I'd leave another review because the delivery driver was lovely. When he arrived he apologised for being late....we'd ordered it for half 7, and if anything it was a couple of minutes early. Him and my other half had a bit of a chat about how he was probably so busy because of the England/Scotland football. Great service, we will no doubt be ordering again.
