Best Pizza Hut deals

Everyone loves pizza — especially when you can top it with lots of savings.

At Pizza Hut, deals, coupons and specials can let you enjoy one of their popular pies for less. The restaurant is the perfect stop for frugal families looking for a quick and easy meal.

Founded in 1958 in Wichita, Kansas, Pizza Hut is one of the world’s largest pizza chains. The star of the Pizza Hut menu is its pan and specialty pizzas, with multiple crust options and flavors. Fun fact: Pizza Hut was one of the first American pizzerias to offer a Meat Lover’s Pizza.

The restaurant is also known for slicing the price on its pizzas. In fact, they’re one of the first major chains to engage in pricing wars with their popular $10 large pizza special.

In addition, Pizza Hut regularly offers discounts for all budgets – everything from single pizza specials to family meal bundles.

It’s not cheesy to say that bargain hunters should never pay full price for their pizza. Instead, they should look for Pizza Hut coupons and limited-time specials to save money on weeknight or weekend pizza dinners.

FREE Pizza

The chain has on rare occasions offered FREE Pizza Hut pizzas. However, freebies are not common, so the best way to slice into a complimentary pie is through the chain’s loyalty program, Hut Rewards (see below).

One ongoing free pizza deal is Pizza Hut’s BOOK IT! program. Young bookworms can read their way to a FREE personal pan pizza. Since 1984, the BOOK IT! program has been dedicated to encouraging reading in schools nationwide.

The literacy program empowers teachers and parents to motivate students to read by providing Reading Award Certificates, good for a FREE one-topping Personal Pan Pizza. The program is open to schools and parents homeschooling their own children.

National Pizza Day

You can’t love pizza without celebrating the three most important food holidays of the year – National Pie Day (January 23), National Pizza Day (February 9) and National Pi Day (March 14).

On occasion, Pizza Hut celebrates those days with various specials or discounts.

On those days, check the chain’s social media for any deal announcements.

Pizza Hut Coupons and Coupon Codes

Pizza Hut occasionally offers print coupons in weekly newspaper or mail inserts. They usually include the ongoing deals you can get online, as well as a few unique offers.

You can find savings on pizza bundles and percentage-off deals. Because pizza ordering is mostly done online, the print Pizza Hut coupons include a coupon code to be used at checkout.

However, the best place to find Pizza Hut coupons is directly on its site. There is no coupon code necessary because the offers are automatically applied at checkout.

Pizza Hut Rewards and Points

Pizza Hut launched its first-ever loyalty program Hut Rewards back in 2017. Members earn points toward FREE menu items (including pizza!), have access to exclusive deals and enjoy a birthday reward.

Hut Rewards members earn two points for every $1 spent for dine-in, carryout and delivery orders. It doesn’t matter how you order (online, on the phone or in-restaurant), you always earn points.

Just be sure you’re logged into your account or give your phone number at checkout. Occasionally, members can earn bonus points through special promotions or offers.

Redeem points for a variety of menu items, including breadsticks (75 points), eight-count boneless wings (125 points) and a medium two-topping pizza (200 points.) You must earn 300 points to get a FREE large pizza, the top reward in Pizza Hut’s loyalty program.

Plus, members earn a FREE birthday treat at Pizza Hut. The reward varies, but it’s usually for a complimentary side (breadsticks, cinnamon sticks, etc.) with a minimum purchase. The offer is automatically loaded to the member’s account.

To ensure your account is properly credited, always log into your account before ordering. (If you’re ordering over the phone or at the restaurant, access your account by sharing your account phone number.)

Pizza Hut App

Of course, the quickest and easiest way to order pizza is directly from Pizza Hut’s app. The app is tied to the chain’s Hut Rewards, so, by signing in, you’re earning points for every order.

Plus, you can also redeem any earned rewards. However, you can also use the Pizza Hut app separately from the loyalty program by signing in as a guest.

In addition, you can also access all of Pizza Hut’s online deals from the app. With just a few swipes and clicks, you can have a pizza at your doorstep within an hour or so.

Pizza Hut Menu and Prices

Pizza Hut prices are comparable to prices at other national pizza chains. However, you should never pay full price, thanks to all of the readily available Pizza Hut discounts and specials. Even if you call in your pizza order, be sure to ask the employee about the current discounts available. Prices vary by market.

Beyond the big savings, the chain is known for its extensive menu, including pizza (of course), pasta, side dishes and desserts.

Much to the dismay of many pizza lovers, Pizza Hut does not serve breakfast, despite pizza being a favorite morning meal.

Therefore, most locations open for an early lunch, usually around 10 a.m., and stay open until 11 p.m. or later. Pizza Hut hours vary by location.

The signature items on the Pizza Hut menu include:

Pan Pizza

The chain’s signature thick, buttery crust is one of the reasons its pizzas are so popular. The ultra-thick, chewy and flavorful crust adds a little more pizzazz to the pizza.

Original Stuffed Crust

Pizza Hut popularized the stuffed crust pizza back in the ’90s. The crust is stuffed with warm, melty cheese, and each bite is filled with gooey goodness. You can add stuffed crust to most pizzas on the menu for an additional cost.

Meat Lover’s Pizza

One of the most popular signature pizzas on the Pizza Hut menu is the Meat Lover’s Pizza. It’s full of meaty toppings and will definitely fill you up with just a slice or two.

The pie features more than a pound of cheese and meat, including pepperoni, Italian sausage, bacon, ham, beef and pork.

Pizza Hut also offers a Pepperoni Lover’s Pizza and Veggie Lover’s Pizza.

Personal Pan Pizza

Pizza Hut made the term “personal pan pizza” popular for good reason. It’s the perfect size for those dining alone or in need of a quick lunch.

It’s also the right size for families with distinctly different tastes because each person can order their own pizza and enjoy it all to themselves.

Every pizza on the Pizza Hut menu can be ordered as a personal pan pizza. Each mini-pizza consists of four small slices.

Pizza Hut Buffet

Once very popular, Pizza Hut’s buffets are extremely difficult to find. If you’re fortunate to be near a full-size Pizza Hut location, they may offer the chain’s famous pizza buffet.

The buffets are usually all-you-can-eat with pizza, pasta, salads and dessert at a discounted price during specific lunch hours.

How to Order Pizza Hut Online

The easiest and fastest way to order pizza from Pizza Hut is online.

You can order Pizza Hut through its app or site for pick-up or delivery. You can also order Pizza Hut over the phone. Just call the most convenient location directly.

Pick-up is the most economical choice because there are no additional fees. However, for Pizza Hut delivery, there is a minimum purchase requirement (usually around $20) and additional fees.

The delivery fee is not a gratuity for the driver, so expect to tack on a few more dollars for a tip. Having pizza delivered may cost you an additional $10 or so with fees and tip.

Unless it’s for total convenience, many bargain hunters avoid delivery because of the additional costs. Many would prefer to use that additional money toward more food.
