Domino's Pizza Opens First 24-Hour Store In U.S.

CINCINNATI — Domino's Pizza Inc. says it's delivering around the clock in southwestern Ohio, where a franchise store is one of its first U.S. locations to remain open 24 hours a day.

A manager of the store near the University of Dayton campus says it began staying open 24 hours about a month ago. Manager Steve Martin says the store is offering a breakfast pizza with toppings like eggs, cheese and bacon.

Domino's spokesman Tim McIntyre says the first of the Ann Arbor, Mich.-based stores to remain open 24 hours also opened about a month ago in Manchester, England, and two other stores in England have since gone to 24-hour schedules.

McIntyre says company officials will be watching the performance of the stores closely in areas including sales and product offerings.

Pizza IS the perfect food. If I were to be stranded on a deserted island, say like Lost, and was given one type of food - pizza, nooooooooo question.

Just 50 m down from my abode, there's a small, local Italian, which does stone-oven fired take-aways. Needless to say - we're on a first name basis.

Some day, I'm going to write me an Ode to the Great and Wonderful Pizza.

I wish I lived in NY where I could get real pizza, not this chain stuff that I have to deal with.

Is that a fly on the slice of pizza in the first picture? Whether it is a fly or just looks like a fly, not good for Domino's, especially for customers who ordered the vegetarian pizza.

The chain pizza places do not make pizza they make something that looks a little like pizza but it is not. The calling their product pizza is like me calling a "mock apple pie" which is make with Ritz crackers and not apples( no i never made or consumed it ) an apple pie. You can call it whatever you like but it doesn't make it true. As for the occasionally consumption of pizza being bad for you i don't agree we have it about twice a month with a salad as dinner and i think its just fine, Hint serve the salad first lol or the kids wont eat it . As mom always said a good appetite is the best seasoning

Mmmm, tomato-stained manilla envelopes, and money going to right-wing catholic causes. On second thought, give me a local independent pizza joint any day.

I agree, go with the independents. Living in Chicago, I have about 25 of them or more within my delivery area.

Now so many are desparate for work, and wages are so low that folks will do this for the next meal

I guess they need to figure another way to increase revenues since their recent revamping of their pizza has made a mediocre pizza even worse and probably didn't do much to help increase sales.

Mmmm, bacon and egg pizza sounds great! But anywhere but Dominos.

Incidentally, there is a Sbarros location in Dayton International Airport that serves pizza with breakfast toppings. I always have a slice if I happen to land there in the morning.
