As part of a trip to NYC, we decided to get on an overnight bus to Niagara Falls, spend one day there and go back on an overnight bus. After visiting the falls, checking out the Canadian side and coming back again, we needed to find somewhere to have dinner in the city of Niagara Falls while we waited for the second bus. Turns out there weren't a lot of things open after 7PM on a Tuesday night in Niagara Falls. We found the nearest restaurant to the bus station was a Papa Johns. Since our Flixbus only left at 10PM, we were looking to spend approximately three hours at this Papa Johns. Let me tell you, this Papa Johns is not like other Papa Johns. It is apparent because it is a combination Holiday Inn Bar and Papa John's. It is carpeted. There's a bar with darts, a pool table and one of those cigarette vending machines that are apparently still around. As we entered, there were 8 other customers there. A family enjoying their pizzas and 2 men at the bar counter. The floor was carpeted. Because it was a bar, the space was dimly lit. But not the Papa Johns section. The Papa Johns section was flooded with fluorescent lighting. We decided to sit in the transition. After we had our pizza, we still had like two hours to kill before the bus came so I went to check out the darts machine. I was wondering if I should ask for help from the girl at the bar how it worked when I noticed there was a family in a hot tub in the room directly beside the darts machine. I went back to my table. Definitely one of the most liminal experiences in my life. Big plus: the staff were chill about letting us use their wall outlets to charge our phone. The...
Read moreOkay so I don’t normally leave reviews about fast food chain stores – I mean it’s fast food, so you shouldn’t really expect too much – so the fact that I am here writing about Papa John’s says a lot in and of itself.
Y’all, I was staying at the Seneca hotel at Niagara Falls (not a great place to stay but more on that later) and all of their restaurants were closed – I came across Papa John’s and saw that there was a discount, so I thought I’d take a chance and 0MG this was the best chain restaurant pizza I have ever had in my entire life! It was melt-y, it was piping hot, it was fresh, and it was literally delicious the pepperoni and cheese melted as you ate it like bruh – it’s very hard for Pizza places to nail the stuffed crust…but this Papa John’s did it! I am so thankful because this food was out of this world and it really made an irritating night so much better! So thank you again to the team at this specific location for doing such a wonderful job my mom and I thoroughly enjoyed it! I hope you have a...
Read moreI’m not typically one to leave reviews.
However I visited this place on Sept 18, and grabbed a cinnamon pull apart dish as a quick late night snack.
It was phenomenal, my girlfriend and I pretty much ate the entire thing in one sitting due to how good it was.
We visited again today after saying we were going to try the pizza and wings before our vacation came to an end.
Both of us have NEVER had the pizza from ANY papa John’s.
The wings were amazing, perfectly cooked, perfect amount of flavor.
The pizza we actually finished which is RARE for any place we go for pizza. Both were so good we actually thought about going and getting more tonight.
Michael at the desk was also incredibly friendly and very helpful with finding what we wanted and answering questions. He welcomed us as we got to the counter both times and kept a friendly smile on during the entire visit & even when we left.
He also made sure we heard “have a good night” as he handed us our food both nights.
Keep him! He makes the place...
