UPDATE: While we earlier heard it was all day, Papa John's employees are saying the deal ended at 4 p.m. Sorry! But at least there's a closer pizza joint for those folks in Shaw, downtown, and Mt. Vernon Triangle.
What's better than hot pizza on a hot, hot day? Well, maybe it's ice cream or water ice, but hey, the pizza is free! A new Papa John's location near 4th and Mass NW just opened, and they're testing their oven/luring in customers with free large pizzas for pickup. Hungry folks can get cheese or pepperoni, limit one per party. You might want to call in first though (202-986-2222), it can take 15-30 minutes for a free one to get made. The free pizzaing lasts all day, so get on it. 313 H Street NW.

Aw dang. They told me it was all day.
They told me it was all day.
ah, the magical world of papa johns. where time suspends itself and the day comes to a late close at 4 pm.
Damn, I live right across from there and my roommate and I were going to gorge ourselves until our apartment was a veritable crime scene of garlic dipping sauce and tangy marinara...a dream differed.
Anybody want some stale pita with ketchup and processed cheese "food?"
Didn't think so.
Papa Johns tastes like shit !! Why do people eat their pizza ?
because, if you're living anywhere outside of big cities in the northeast corridor, it's probably some of the best you're going to get.
breadsticks FTW!
