Pizza is without a doubt one of the most popular fast food items in the world and a lot of
people's 'go-to' food when we crave something quick and tasty. While most people agree that
the crust is important to a great pizza, there is no denying that a great topping selection
can really elevate a pizza to greatness. With that in mind we look at the Top 10 Pizza Chains
That Make The Best Custom Pizzas.
Pizza Hut
Pizza Hut is possibly one of the most famous and popular pizza chains in the world and
there’ s a reason why. For decades the people at Pizza Hut have been supplying us with great
tasting pizza. Not just content with serving 'run of the mill pizza,' Pizza Hut has been
known for truly pushing the boundaries when it comes to their pizzas, flavors and toppings.
Not only were Pizza Hut one of the forerunners when it comes to the stuffed crust pizzas—after
all, can we even remember life before the stuffed crust pizza?—Pizza Hut also likes
to give us a wide variety of toppings: Buffalo chicken, Bacon Cheeseburger, as well as a
wide variety of veggie options. Pizza Hut will try any combination to enhance our pizza
experience, and we love them all the more for it. Beside their regular menu, Pizza Hut
does a great job at letting the customers choose their own toppings. Mixing and matching
those tasty toppings can make a Pizza Hut pizza taste even better. On top of that there
is their world famous salad bar to add to your dining experience. No wonder Pizza Hut
is still one of the big boys of the fast food world.
PizzaRev
On our list of the top 10 pizza chains that make the best custom pizzas, we have some
world famous giants of the fast food industry but we also shine a light on some of the lesser
known pizza chains. One such chain is LA born PizzaRev. While many people out there may
not have even heard of PizzaRev let alone tried one of their pizzas, that could all
change soon as PizzaRev is quickly putting themselves on the pizza map. With the help
of some big name fast food executives behind them, PizzaRev is expanding and is looking
to take on the best chains that the pizza world has to offer. While most pizza chains
and restaurants offer the customers a chance to create their own pizzas and choose certain
toppings, PizzaRev goes one further and only lets the customers customize their pizzas,
rather than having a set menu. With over 30 toppings, homemade doughs and sauces, all
natural cheeses, and locally sourced ingredients, PizzaRev expertly crafts you a tailor made
pizza right in front of your eyes; then it is cooked in a stone-bed oven for that extra
thin and crispy pizza. All of this is done in three minutes. If that wasn't impressive
enough, PizzaRev suits every pizza lover's needs as it not only caters for meat lovers
but also for the veggie lovers out there, as well as having gluten free and organic
options. Whatever your taste or lifestyle, PizzaRev has the pizza topping for you.
MOD Pizza
If you are looking to truly customize your pizza, then look no further than MOD Pizza.
Being the relative 'new kids on the block' in regards to pizza chains, (they were only
founded in 2008 after all!) MOD pizza now has over 400 locations across the US and the
UK, which is impressive. The reason for this is possibly to do with their pizzas. Not only
does MOD Pizza have a superb pre-made menu of artisan pizzas to choose from, they also
have one of the best create-your-own pizzas section on the market. Their topping selection
is vast and includes anything you could imagine. Along with the usual meats and pizza ingredients,
MOD Pizza also offers specialized and spicy meats for the true meat lover. If you are
in a veggie mood and want more than the usual peppers, pineapple and olives, MOD Pizza is
here for you with a lot more original choices such as kale, roasted broccoli and artichokes,
to name just a few. As well as the toppings, MOD Pizza also gives you the choice to choose
your own cheese and sauce as well. Whether you want the more traditional or want to go
for something different, they have the cheese and sauce for you. They also offer plenty
of dairy and gluten free options. If that wasn't enough, MOD Pizza's create your own
menu doesn't stop there, as the dough is included as well; the size, thickness and crust can
all be tailored to an individual's taste. With that in mind, MOD Pizza is a must for
all true pizza lovers
Papa John's
On our list of the Top 10 Pizza Chains that make the best custom pizzas, we've had some
new and up coming pizza joints as well as the old and more traditional places. Next
on our list, we come to one of the forefathers of the pizza delivery chain. Starting out
as a very small pizza delivery company by found John Schnatter, Papa John's soon became
one of the biggest pizza chains in the country. While Papa John's hasn't always had the best
reputation for their pizzas, which is one of the reasons they have never been able to
topple their rivals such as Pizza Hut and Domino's, they have been at the forefront
of some of the more innovative aspects of Pizza delivery. Papa John's was the first
pizza place to introduce the dipping sauce to go with your pizza, and of course, it is
well known that Papa John's was the first to offer online ordering. Both of those things
are staples for all pizza restaurants today, but the standard was set by Papa John's. When
it comes to their pizzas, Papa John's offers the usual suspects in the pizza world as well
as a few specialized toppings such as Hawaiian BBQ Chicken, Tropical Luau and Spinach Alfredo.
While their create your own menu isn't as extensive and diverse as other pizza chains
on our list, Papa John's is still a good and safe place to fill that pizza craving we all
have from time to time
Pieology
We all have our favorite pizza joints and fast food chains. Whether it's their cheap
prices, good food or ethical mantra, our favorite fast food chain is a part of our everyday
life. However, there are some people out there that love their fast food place to have a
good or different back story. If that is the case then look no further than Pieology. This
pizza chain was actually devised on a family pizza night. The founder, his wife and kids,
would top a pizza any way they like and thus the Pieology idea was formed. There isn't
a much more wholesome backstory than that. The Pieology pizzas themselves have a 'Subway
Sandwich' kind of vibe as you enter their restaurants, choose everything from toppings
to cheese and dough to sauce and then it is cooked while you wait. The icing on the cake
is that Pieology was one of the forerunners in drizzling sauce on their pizzas after they
have been cooked. A practice that other pizza chains have since started to do, although
they haven't had the same great tasting results as Pieology. The actual pizzas aren't as big
as other pizza chains but the ingredients are fresh and the list of toppings, cheeses
and sauces are truly extensive that the size of the pizza won't matter as you will be going
back for more. If you are looking for a great tasting pizza that you can really make your
own, then Pieology is one of the best pizza chains to do that
Little Caesars
Little Caesars is one of the big hitters in the world of pizza, and in fact fast food
itself. Most of us out there will have tried a Little Caesars pizza at some point in our
lives, and while not everyone is a fan of this pizza chain, most will agree that their
pizza topping selection is up there with the best of them. Famed for their 'hot and ready'
pizza selection, Little Caesars gained popularity for having their pizza ready to go as you
arrive which made Little Caesars popular with those of us wanting something quick and tasty.
Because of their speed and ready to go mantra, Little Caesars doesn't offer a huge amount
of choice for customizing your own pizza, especially not as many as some of the other
pizza chains on our list, but they do offer options for you to create your own and of
course, you can choose between their traditional round pizza dough and their infamous square
'Deep Deep' Dish pizzas. Then there are their limited run pizzas which can give us an unexpected
treat; they did give us the Pretzel pizza and French Fry crust after all. While Little
Caesars isn't the most fancy pizza chain in the world, it is perfect for all our lives
on the go
Pizza Studio
There are factors that go into making a great pizza; variety of toppings, sauces and even
great side dishes. However, one of the more important factors to many pizza lovers is
the crust itself and that's something that Pizza Studio prides itself on. This high-end
fast-casual restaurant goes above and beyond when it comes to their dough. Not only is
it hand tossed and made in house everyday, Pizza Studio also goes out of it's way to
source the best possible ingredients for its customers. The result is a mouth watering
take on the traditional pizza crust. The pizza crusts comes with plenty of choices to enhance
the pizza experience; rosemary, flax seeds, whole grain and the spicy firecracker are
just some of the crust choices Pizza Studio has. Then of course comes the sauce and Pizza
Studio has you covered there as well. They have plenty of saucing options to elevate
your pizza choice, although, we recommend their Chipotle tomato blend to really give
that pizza some zing. On top of that, we couldn't resist the pun! It's toppings next and Pizza
Studio has many for you to choose from and you can pile your pizza high with as many
toppings as you wish. So, what ever your tastes or pizza needs, Pizza studio has something
for you
California Pizza Kitchen
California Pizza kitchen is often voted as the most popular pizza chain in the US and
we can see why. Founded in the 1980's in Beverly Hills, California by two lawyers, California
Pizza Kitchen became famous for its innovative and experimental pizzas. While the BBQ chicken
pizza has become a staple in the world of pizza toppings, there was a time when it wasn't.
And the first pizza chain to give us the BBQ chicken was? You guessed it, California Pizza
Kitchen. They are constantly expanding their menu, always experimenting with their style
and toppings to bring us the best pizzas possible. If you want to try something a little different
than their set menu, then California Pizza Kitchen has a great list of ingredients to
create your own pizzas and truly experience their full pizza potential. On top of their
great tasting pizzas, California Pizza Kitchen does a lot for the community too. With a multitude
of community outreach programmes as well as plenty of fundraising, California Pizza Kitchen
likes to give back, which is just one of the reasons why California Pizza Kitchen is a
must visit for all pizza lovers
Blaze Pizza
Blaze Pizza is a fast-casual pizza restaurant that is quickly making waves within the fast
food world. Not only is Blaze Pizza committed to producing great tasting food, it also wants
to look after the planet as well. If you haven't heard of Blaze Pizza yet then you are in for
a treat. The first thing to know about Blaze Pizza is their dough. Each and every day,
and in every store, Blaze Pizza prides itself on making fresh and healthy dough rather than
using leftover dough from the day before, unlike a lot of other pizza chains out there.
The other thing to note about Blaze Pizza is their toppings. While their standard, pre-topped
pizzas don't stray too far from a typical pizza chain; pepperoni, meatballs, grilled
chicken etc, it's their build your own selection for pizzas and salads that really sets Blaze
pizza apart from the competition as they supply any ingredient a pizza-loving person can think
of and in any combination. With fresh produce and ingredients and a multitude of pizza combinations,
as well as being environmentally aware, Blaze Pizza is the place for anyone who truly loves
their pizza.
Domino's
On our list of pizza chains that have the best custom pizzas, we may have mentioned
a few chains that are new to many people but now we come to the biggest pizza chain of
all. Founded way back in 1960, Domino's pizza has become one of the biggest and most famous
pizza chains in the world. Starting out with one small store in Michigan, Domino's quickly
expanded to three stores, which is why the Domino's logo has three dots on it, to celebrate
their founding stores. Not long after that, those three stores spread across the country
and then around the globe. Now Domino's is many peoples 'go-to' pizza chain when they
want something fast and tasty. Over the years Domino's has strengthened their menu and ventured
outside of pizzas; not just content with adding things like dipping sauces and garlic bread,
Domino's has added food items such as toasted sandwiches, wings, build your own pasta and
of course, a long list of deserts for those of us with a sweet tooth. However, as big
as Domino's non-pizza menu list is getting, it's their pizzas that have us all coming
back for more. The list of toppings and sauces that Domino's offer is large and not only
that, but they are tasty too. You can also choose from their Artisan range of pizzas
to add something a little different to your take out pizza experience.
