The Story of Papa Johns
Papa Johns: globally loved pizza, locally crafted in the Netherlands
It all started in 1984, when John Schnatter installed a pizza oven in a broom closet in his father’s tavern. With one clear belief: better ingredients make better pizza.
What began small quickly grew into a global success. Today, Papa Johns is one of the largest pizza chains in the world, with more than 6,000 locations across over 50 countries. Wherever you are – whether you order pizza in New York, London, or the Netherlands – you’ll always experience the same great taste and quality.
In the Netherlands, we combine that global consistency with a strong local approach. With our own dough factory in Utrecht and a passionate local team, we deliver fresh pizza and fast pizza delivery across the Netherlands every day.
Whether you’re looking to order pizza for a cozy night in or want quick delivery at your door, Papa Johns always delivers quality you can taste.
Better Ingredients
Better ingredients. Better pizza. That’s our promise.
If you want to order truly great pizza, it all starts with the ingredients. At Papa Johns, we never compromise – only the best makes the cut.
Our famous tomato sauce
Our signature sauce is made from a unique, extra-sweet variety of tomatoes grown in Portugal. Harvested just once a year, these tomatoes create a sauce made from over 90% fresh tomatoes – with no preservatives. The result? A rich, full flavor that defines Papa Johns pizza worldwide.
Fresh dough, made daily
Great pizza starts with the perfect base. Our dough is made using an exclusive recipe, with no additives and a fermentation time of up to 72 hours. It’s never frozen – only refrigerated – so every pizza you order has that perfect texture and taste.
100% premium mozzarella
We use only 100% premium mozzarella. No substitutes, no shortcuts. Just pure, creamy cheese that melts perfectly and completes every pizza.
The result? Fresh, high-quality pizza you can taste in every bite.
