you should complain and get some free pizza, or sell you story to a national paper - I'd buy a paper to read that article. hahahahaha

Someone I work with told me on a Saturday a while back she'd been with her family to Meadowhall and stopped off at Valley Centertainment Pizza Hut on the tram home, they had no pizzas, they went on into town Pizza Hut, they had no pizza. They continued home and tried a last attempt at Crystal Peaks, they also had no pizza. Absolutly crazy!?! A Sheffield wide lack of pizza bases?

The one at crookes is constantly out of pizza bases. I rang up for a buy one get one free and was told they only had stuffed crust bases left. I don't even like the dam stuffed crust as the cheese tastes of glue and told the bloke that why should i pay a pound extra. they still charged me .pathetic:rant: ;)

I've been pretty unimpressed by Pizza Hut at Crystal Peaks (well Drakehouse), we live about 2 minutes from it and on the odd occation we fancy a (Pizza Hut) pizza we go to the one at Meadowhall Retail Park.

HOWEVER ! in their defence, there was an England match on tonight, so I'm guessing it was a very busy evening for them. But having said that, it's not the first time they have run out of stock - The service isn't that quick either...

The one at Crystal Peaks regularly has nothing in stock. I've been on no less then three occasions where they had pretty much nothing left at all. I dont partiularly like pizza hut, but everyone else I know seems to.

I've been to kfc loads and have them run out of drinks all they had was water and the best was greggs at 12:30 ish in meadowhall

Me : Can I have a ham salad softbite please
Woman behind till : No we've got no bread
Me : Seriously? a sandwhich shop with no bread
Woman behind till : Yes..Seriously dya want anything else
Me : Cheese and ham pasty please
Woman behind till : We've got no pastys either but we've got sausage rolls if you wanna wait

Needless to say I left far from pleased which doesnt make a change for a visit to greggs really

IIRC Pizza Hut have a "world cup BOGOF" deal on England match days which would probably explain the lack of pizza yesterday :)

I ordered a family meal deal to b delivered from pizza hut on Sat. I made the order gave my address n was told it would be 30-35 mins, after 20 mins I get a call from there manager asking what my address was. I soon as I said I was at lowedges he said we got your address as cresent road n we dont deliver to Lowedges n then put the fone down on me. No appologies, n what happened to my pizza they started cookin? Why are most companies gettin away with treatin customers like crap, without us (the customer) how do they expect to keep goin?

Craig7777 Got any cool beans?

Owner: I'm, a-fraid we're fresh out of red Leicester, sir.

Customer: Oh, never mind, how are you on Tilsit?

Owner: I'm afraid we never have that at the end of the week, sir, we get it fresh on Monday.

Customer: Tish tish. No matter. Well, stout yeoman, four ounces of Caerphilly, if you please.

Owner: Ah! It's beeeen on order, sir, for two weeks. Was expecting it this morning.

Customer: 'T's Not my lucky day, is it? Aah, Bel Paese?

Owner: Ah! We have Camenbert, yessir.

Customer: (suprised) You do! Excellent.

Owner: Yessir. It's..ah,.....it's a bit runny...

Customer: Oh, I like it runny.

Owner: Well,.. It's very runny, actually, sir.

Customer: No matter. Fetch hither the fromage de la Belle France! Mmmwah!

Owner: I...think it's a bit runnier than you'll like it, sir.

Customer: I don't care how ****ing runny it is. Hand it over with all speed.

Owner: Oooooooooohhh........! (pause)

Customer: What now?

Owner: The cat's eaten it.

Customer: (pause) Has he.

Owner: She, sir.

Customer: (pause) Gouda?

Owner: No.

Customer: Edam?

Owner: No.

Customer: Case Ness?

Owner: No.

Customer: Smoked Austrian?

Owner: No.

Owner: (brightly) Of course, sir. It's a cheese shop, sir. We've got--

Customer: No no... don't tell me. I'm keen to guess.

Owner: Fair enough.

Customer: Uuuuuh, Wensleydale.

Owner: Yes?

Customer: Ah, well, I'll have some of that!

Owner: Oh! I thought you were talking to me, sir. Mister Wensleydale, that's my name.

Customer: Not much ca-- it's the single most popular cheese in the world!

Owner: Not 'round here, sir.

Customer: (slight pause) and what IS the most popular cheese 'round hyah?

Owner: 'Illchester, sir.

Customer: IS it.

Owner: Oh, yes, it's staggeringly popular in this manor, squire.

Customer: Is it.

Owner: It's our number one best seller, sir!

Customer: I see. Uuh...'Illchester, eh?

Owner: Right, sir.

Customer: All right. Okay. 'Have you got any?' he asked, expecting the answer 'no'.

Owner: I'll have a look, sir........nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnno.

Customer: It's not much of a cheese shop, is it?

Customer: Have you --SHUT THAT BLOODY BAZOUKI OFF!

Owner: Told you sir....

Owner: No.

Customer: Figures.Predictable, really I suppose. It was an act of purest optimism to have posed the question in the first place. Tell me:

Owner: Yessir?

Customer: (deliberately) Have you in fact got any cheese here at all.

Owner: Yes, sir.

Customer: Really?

(pause)

Owner: No. Not really, sir.

Customer: You haven't.

Owner: No sir. Not a scrap. I was deliberately wasting your time, sir.

Customer: Well I'm sorry, but I'm going to have to shoot you.

Owner: Right-Oh, sir.

(The customer takes out a gun and shoots the owner)

Customer: What a *senseless* waste of human life.

Given that the world cup draw was made over six months ago - this is a poor excuse

I have one company get my postcode wrong - I live in S10. Despite giving my postcode phonetically (i.e. Sierra One Zero ...) they still get it wrong (upon asking why packages don't get delivered) - they have entered a postcode for London (SE10) or Devizes (SN10).

i shouldn't have been suprised really, i too live 2 mins from the peaks one too and use it quite alot just because its so close and each time they have about 1 member of staff working so the service is very slow!!! i keep bearing with it though hoping it'll improve, the no pizza doesnt fill me with much confidence though.
