Pizza Hut Opens In DP Dough's Old Home

Faithful readers, today we bring you (gently) to that dark time in early October when late-night drunchie mainstay, DP Dough, closed its doors forever. In the months since, we’ve done our best to adjust, either by hustling to Allegro’s or resigning ourselves to Axis, but still, DP Dough’s departure left an empty space in our hearts as big as the one left on 40th Street.

40th Street, at least, is empty no longer – Pizza Hut has just opened a location where DP Dough was previously. You know what they say: as one pizza place closes down on a college campus, another one pops up in its place. Will Pizza Hut be able to overcome the difficulties experienced by its previous occupant? Although only open until 1 A.M. on weekends, Pizza Hut does deliver, AND you can order online.

Here’s to you, Pizza Hut. May you live to soak up the stomach contents of college students for years to come. And DP Dough – we’re slowly but surely moving on.
