I’m not new to Debonairs Pizza. In fact, I confess to patronizing their business more frequently than I really should (#teamkeepfitinthebuilding) lol. On the real though, I visit Debonairs often and they sell really good pizza at bearable prices. I hadn’t tried their delivery service until this fateful day. Let me gist y’all about my “wonderful” experience.
First of all, it was so difficult trying to find the delivery number associated with this branch. I had to literally search everywhere on the internet for it. If not for the intense Pizza craving I was experiencing, I’d have just given up at this point. Oya now , I found the number and called to ask for pizza options. As you can probably tell by now, nothing was going to get in my way of having freshly made Pizza delivered to my dorm. I was very determined!
The lady who answered the phone seemed displeased, almost like I was disturbing her. To make matters worse, her background was extremely noisy. Shebi she should have stepped out after all my “ehhs” and “pardons”? I guess she didn’t get the message. So I requested she go to a more quiet area to take my order.
Time to order and pay, so they could deliver my pizza sharp sharp . She informed me that they only had two options – chicken and meat. After probing a little further, I ordered the chicken pizza with no onions. As a proud #teamkeepfitmember, I requested for the small (cost 2k5) but was quickly informed that they don’t deliver small pizzas so I opted for the large (cost #3250).
Excited that my pizza was on the way, I proceeded to give my location details. Can you imagine that this woman had the nerve to scream, “ahh Yaba, that is far!”. I didn’t even know how to react, especially considering that Yaba isn’t that far from Surulere. Anyway, my good heart ignored her comment and asked for my pizzas estimated time of arrival. 1 HOUR!!! I jejely said thank you and waited for my pizza to be delivered.
Exactly 1 hour later, the delivery guy called me downstairs from my dorm. Part of me expected the pizza to be cold, but it was actually hot and tasted good. I found the large to be a bit small though, but paid for it anyway.
Considering all I went through to get this pizza, I probably wouldn’t opt for Debonairs delivery to Yaba unless two conditions are met; 1) I have an intense pizza craving and 2) Extra owo to blow. Plus, I don’t think I really got my money’s worth.
PS – If someone out there is thinking to start a pizzeria in Yaba and offer really good tasting pizza & prompt delivery, I will HIGHLY patronize your business (buying small pizzas one day at a time). 🙂
My large chicken pizza
My large chicken pizza
I ordered using the phone number above and I got a pizza house pizza which tasted yuck !
I ordered triple decker pizza from debonair st Ikeja city mall. We were disappointed to know that we could only order chicken or beef. 31/2 hours later my kids and I are still waiting. They have refused to pick my calls. We live at omole, 10mins from Alausa. I will never order from them again.
I think its an honest review.
I see myself ordering for debonairs very soon.
Balanced and well structured
