Dominos went away from Italy in 2022 after they couldn’t compete with the prices of the many (many many many) local restaurant who offered better quality products for lower prices
Domino’s in Italy?
The fucking audacity lmao
We recently went to Italy. Went to a local restaurant, three kids and us two adults. The kids wanted some specific pizza each, but they also offered a family Margherita for 14 bucks, so we ordered this together with the kids’ pizza, assuming us two parents could eat that and maybe some leftovers.
That fucker was huge. I think 50 cm diameter? The family pizza alone probably would have fed all of us, the regular ones weren’t small either. With prices being what they are, I’m sometimes happy if I can eat properly for 14 bucks in a restaurant. A meal for two for that price would be a good deal. Taking three kids to a restaurant for that price was a damn steal.
The next day the leftovers alone were enough for lunch and supper. The day after that we went back to the same place.
Lmao yeah the “family” size usually is for 4/6 people and is often referred as “pizza al metro” which means “pizza by meter” (as in a literal meter or 2 of pizza) and is usually bought for parties
IM SHOCKED
Another unsourced map with probably heaps of inaccuracies. Everyone will becalling out errors in this map. I know at least one: Netherlands has Dunkin’ Donuts.
Can we have a rule against unsourced informational maps? They’re always wrong
You’re right, we probably need to be more vigilant against map misinfo in the future. This one seems harmless but of course there are more serious maps posted here too.
Fwiw, this map has a (very vague) source information:
And from what I could see, it seemed at least partly accurate—e.g. Spain has Taco Bell, but Germany does not. The major issue is that there is no year indicated here, so all information is probably pre-2022.
The mods of most communities seem to care more about traffic than about stopping the spread of misinformation and it hurts everyone.
I really wouldn’t mind, if they all disappeared.
Many of us who live in the U.S. feel the same way.
This map is incorrect. Denmark has one last Pizza Hut in Roskilde and there’s literally a Dunkin Donuts in Cooenhagen Central
You have to be careful when you have a case of the dunks it spreads
And dominos shut down, no?
Map is either pre 2017 or wrong, Dunking opened at least 1 location in Switzerland around 2018.
There’s at least one in Basel now
Wendy’s can’t open shops in The Netherlands, Belgium, and Luxembourg because there is a guy with a snackbar with a similar name in Goes that has the right to the name since 1995 in the Benelux.
The best part is that if they asked the guy nicely he’d be all too happy to struck a deal for an early retirement, but in typical American fashion they immediately showed up with lawyers and sued.
He made provisions since to ensure the US Wendy’s will never get that name, including opening more locations so that they’re now a “fast food chain” as well.
Doesn’t stop them opening up as “Hungry Janet” or something.
Burger King opened as Hungry Jacks in (Queensland?) Australia as “Burger King” already existed. But is also now trading under the “Burger King” brand in some places.
We have dunkin’ donuts in the Netherlands.
Yeah was about to say the same. Also, do we really have pizza hut here? Never seen one.
I saw one in Amersfoort, near Amersfoort Vathorst train station. Decided to try it once, and only once. It is disgustingly greasy.
Neither seen Taco Bell that frequent, where are those?!
I know of one in Breda close to the train station. If you exit to the city center side and go up the stairs, it’s there to your right.
It’s pretty gross tho imo
There is one in Eindhoven
The internet says there are 10 of them, so not a lot.
I’ve seen one hidden in Den Haag, surrounded by kapsalon places
The Netherlands also has this disgusting Dunkin crap.
They’re coming to France as well. Along with another donut chain, the name of which I have forgotten. The swarm of crap is never ending.
Correction, unless they’re doing different in Europe.
Dunkin (Donuts) is now a “coffee” chain that accidentally has donuts still
Do we have taco bell? I’ve never seen one.
I saw one in Utrecht a few weeks back, near Leidsche Rijn.
Is this what the people on 9g*g are alluding to when they keep telling me that European culture is being destroyed by foreign invaders?
As far as I can tell every european country has it’s own type of fast food, sometimes even with variations within the country to the point that it might as well be different things. Just because it’s not a gigantic company selling it to you doesn’t mean it’s not fast food.
Yes, fast food is fast food, regardless of the retailer. But here we are talking about US (foreign) chains in Europe (native). Thus the 9g*g joke.
I’ve lived in Norway for basically my entire life, and I’ve never seen a pizza hut here…
We had two that I remember: Gardermoen and Værnes. They are both gone now. Guessing 5-6 years.
Bosnian here: Mac is gone, but KFC and Burger King are here
This image needs some correction for Norway. Only SubWay, MCD and BK are prevalent. Dominos have mainly places on Oslo, and a the rest are mainly in the larger cities. Starbucks 10. Most in downtown Oslo. Think Pizza Hut pulled out of Norway years ago
It should have been a color gradient per capita. Starbucks has a very poor holding in Portugal because Portuguese people like good espressos, not dirty water.
Think they caters to tourists in Oslo juding by the location map
Yupp, pizza hut pulled out in 2000
Not completely, as they had some locations in airports, both Gardermoen and Værnes at least. Not sure when they closed, but I ate at both somewhere around 2018.
They disappeared before Covid hit and I swapped to a non-traveling job though.
Nowhere is safe ☹️
Sweden here. We have Starbucks but it is far far from popular, I think the main demographic is young women, Swedes don’t typically go for sweet/weak coffee like what they serve.
Dunkin’ has existed but I think it absolutely failed.
Pizza hut exists, but not in many locations, however they have been around a long time and I think they are moderately successful.
Burger King snd McDonalds thrive and have many locations. McDonalds struggle in the northern region where people swear by Max burgers instead.
Subway exist with moderate amounts of locations, have been for a long time. Probably doing okay.
Kfc is rare, but exists in the larger cities.
Dominos exists but I don’t know who is buying, in my opinion its sub par pizza at a high price point with poor service and long delivery times.
The one I really want we don’t have. (Germany)
Taco Bell? Apparently they want to open 100-150 locations in Germany in the next five years starting with Berlin this year. Besides that their only locations I’m aware of are not publicly accessible as they’re all on american military bases.
