The sizes are: personal, small, medium and large. I'm thinking medium?

To be honest, we always go xl with sides and then just eat the rest the next day, ..

NiceGerbil · 02/08/2020 14:22

We get 2 big ones between 4.

MN is a bad place to ask as there will be a million people along in a minute to tell you how much calories per slice and they get a small one between 20 people and it's still too much.

Can you collect? I think they are doing bogof at the mo. Which is good as they are expensive.

Some people like cold pizza and it's pretty good reheated so I'd get 2 large and have some myself and if there's leftovers I'm sure they'll get eaten!

Pelleas · 02/08/2020 14:25

Ha ha! Coming on to say MN guidance will be that one personal pizza will last your whole family till a week on Wednesday but NiceGerbil beat me to it.

Teacaketotty · 02/08/2020 14:27

They usually have meal deals online like 2 medium pizzas with sides for around £20ish which would be plenty I think.

Get the garlic and cheese dough balls 👍🏻

Hippofrog · 02/08/2020 14:28

A large one between two 10 yr olds with a couple of sides! But this is Mumsnet and you should make a large one feed a family of 6 for at least 4 meals 😂

Hippofrog · 02/08/2020 14:29

They are usually bogof so I’d get two

kissmysass · 02/08/2020 14:30

We have a large and one side between two adults. Maybe a medium between them and 2 sides? We get cookies to share too!

Pelleas · 02/08/2020 14:33

A large one between two 10 yr olds with a couple of sides!

I wouldn't have them share one as it's not conducive to social distancing. 2 x mediums would be better, hopefully you'll get a deal on that.

OneMoreLight · 02/08/2020 14:51

We usually get a large one each, eat half and keep the other half for the next day. For children probably medium ones.

EggysMom · 02/08/2020 14:52

Support a local pizza place instead, and you'll save money ... Domino's are terribly expensive and incredibly salty.

Bananabread8 · 02/08/2020 14:54

Papa Johns is fab and not a fan of pizza usually. Dominos is far too over priced and over rated.

Floralnomad · 02/08/2020 14:55

Pizza Hut is much nicer , Dominos is really greasy. However I’d say a medium each with sides if they are big eaters , the small are really small .

GameSetMatch · 02/08/2020 14:56

A half and half large should be fine, maybe a side or a dessert? If you do half and half they can each pick what toppings they want.

Thesearmsofmine · 02/08/2020 14:56

I’d go for 2 medium for that age.

MrMeSeeks · 02/08/2020 15:01

We always had the biggest and two dough balls between us ( and there was usually a slice or two left) so a large and a side?
I always gmfavor this or big johns

lyralalala · 02/08/2020 15:28

I'd get two medium

They don't do the doughballs anymore :(

BernadetteRostankowskiWolowitz · 02/08/2020 15:29

Two medium and a box of chicken strippers..

Unless you are going to eat the leftovers after they've finished, in which case two large.

Waxonwaxoff0 · 02/08/2020 15:32

I'd go 2 mediums and a couple of sides.

AldiAisleofCrap · 02/08/2020 15:34

A medium is too big for ten year olds. Get one large half and half toppings.

BeeFarseer · 02/08/2020 15:34

Two mediums, a few sides, and you'll have leftovers for tomorrow. Winner.

IHaveBrilloHair · 02/08/2020 15:35

A slice between the whole of your family, you'll have tons leftover too.

TheWildRumpyPumpus · 02/08/2020 15:36

We get 2 large and a side for our family of 4 and the kids eat leftovers the next day for lunch. They always have offers on

DoctorYang · 02/08/2020 15:38

A pizza should be no bigger than your fist and even that is enough to feed the whole family, with leftovers for lunch the next dasy with some salad.

circumventgatekeeper · 02/08/2020 15:38

2 mediums.
The small are tiny.

Also get the kickers as they are amazing.
