Better Ingredients. Better Pizza. Worst Website.

I went to a Papa John’s outlet last month and I must say I was impressed by the quality of their pizzas. Better Ingredients and Better Pizza than any I had before alright. So when it came time for my weekly fix of order-in Pizza, I thought I would give them a call. A couple of weeks later, I still haven’t been able to do that, because their website won’t show me their contact number or the menu. Except for the welcome page, everything else shows up as this:

This could well be a Mac only issue, but in this stane-age, that doesn’t cut it I’m afraid.
And Amitabh’s just confirmed Windows user can’t access the site either – some other error though.

I am not even talking about “fancy” stuff like taking orders online, albeit, that is now the standard in many parts of the world. You have got something like 10 pages on the site and even those links don’t work properly. Question for the site developers – what the hell do you need .Net for? From the look of things (none of the pages work, so I have no idea about the content, mind) this site could be done in plain, static HTML, without any frills.

Get your act (site) together Papa John’s.

PS – I admit, it wouldn’t have been too hard to locate the number of the closest outlet at, say Just Dial, but something like this leaves a bad taste in the mouth (pardon the pun) and puts you off the whole process. I ended up calling my regular Pizza joint instead.
