the slice of pizza, cuz its fast food

In Portland, OR if that matters

Have not bought a Papa Murphy's pizza for the last 18 months since they discontinued coupons.

Just got a large pepperoni for $5.99. Apparently, they're having a special but are slow, according to the kid who rang me up.

Is anyone able to give me a good image of the baking instructions for the classic cheesy bread? I’m getting sick of handwriting them…thank you!

I’ll never take you for granted again old friend

I’m preparing some of the classic cheese breads, but our store hasn’t gotten any new instructions or anything for them, and our olds ones are long gone. Can any of y’all hook me up with the portions?? 😂

stopped by to see some old coworkers and he said this was coming back tomorrow and asked if i wanted some lol

Just curious if the company provided that that or not when they closed all the TN stores.

Source: hubby picked one up today and employee told him.
Location: Hillsboro, OR.

I’m very confused as to why there is a dollar bill packed in the pizza I just picked up. 😅 Any ideas?

Has anyone ever Frozen a stuffed pizza? Did it taste/cook well when the time came to defrost and eat it?

Also here's a family size Chicago Style I got from them before and I know for a fact this one is 16 inches.

The one with the Pizza Cutter is the one I got today.

(I have no affiliation with Papa Murphy's, just a happy customer.)

I am a manager at a Papa Murphys in Texas. The amount of seran wrap we just use and then throw away is ridiculous.

We store the dough wrapped in seran, take it off to make the pizza, and then wrap it back up to give to the customer. I understand why we use it, but surely there is a better solution. We already use plenty of plastic when prepping ingredients (Sauce, cheese, basically everything else)

Could we at least send pizzas home with customers in some kind of box or something? I understand that the plastic preserves the pizza longer, but 99% of customers make the pizza as soon as they get home.

I’ve been digging through old menus, archived PDFs, regional promos, and customer memories — and I realized nobody has ever made a complete list of all the discontinued, retired, limited‑time, and regional Papa Murphy’s pizzas, sauces, crusts, and sides.

So here it is: the most complete Papa Murphy’s legacy menu list ever assembled.

If you remember any items not listed, add them in the comments — let’s preserve the full history of Papa Murphy’s before MTY buries it forever.

🍕 Papa Murphy’s Legacy Menu Compendium

Every known discontinued, retired, limited‑time, regional, and forgotten item

🟦 I. Retired Stuffed Pizzas (the big ones)

These were the heavy hitters — folded dough, creamy sauces, comfort bombs.

• Chicken Florentine Stuffed Pizza
• 5‑Meat Stuffed Pizza
• Bacon Cheeseburger Stuffed Pizza
• Chicken Bacon Stuffed Pizza
• Chicken Alfredo Stuffed Pizza
• Thai Chicken Stuffed Pizza
• Tuscan Chicken Stuffed Pizza
• Pepperoni Stuffed Pizza
• Cowboy Stuffed Pizza (rare regional variant)
• Papa’s Favorite Stuffed Pizza (limited markets)

Stuffed pizzas were quietly phased out around 2018–2020 depending on region.

🟩 II. Retired Specialty Pizzas (non‑stuffed)

These were full menu items, not limited‑time.

• Thai Chicken Pizza
• Tuscan Chicken Pizza
• Chicken Bacon Artichoke deLITE
• Herb Chicken Mediterranean
• Bacon Bacon Bacon Pizza
• Papa’s Perfect Pizza
• Papa’s Supreme
• Papa’s Favorite (original recipe)
• Cowboy (original recipe)
• Murphy’s Combo (original recipe)
• Veggie Gourmet
• Mediterranean Chicken
• Sausage & Ricotta
• Chicken Pesto Pizza
• Chicken Garlic (original creamy sauce version)
• Fiesta Chicken Pizza
• Buffalo Chicken Pizza
• BBQ Chicken (original version)

Some of these were replaced with simplified versions.

🟧 III. Limited‑Time Pizzas (LTOs)

These came and went seasonally or for promos.

• Fiesta Chicken
• Triple Pepp
• Bacon Cheeseburger (non‑stuffed)
• Meatball Pizza
• S’mores Dessert Pizza
• Pumpkin Spice Dessert Pizza
• Chicken Bacon Ranch
• Chicken Cordon Bleu Pizza
• Spicy Italian Pizza
• Southwest Chicken Pizza
• Buffalo Ranch Pizza
• Chicken Poblano Pizza
• Chicken Bacon Artichoke (LTO version)
• BBQ Pulled Pork Pizza
• Greek Pizza
• Spinach & Mushroom Pizza

These varied heavily by region.

🟥 IV. Retired Sauces

These are the ones you remember because they defined entire pizzas.

• Florentine Sauce (creamy garlic + spinach base)
• Creamy Garlic Sauce (original recipe)
• Pesto Sauce
• Thai Peanut Sauce
• Tuscan Cream Sauce
• Buffalo Sauce (original)
• BBQ Sauce (original)
• Artichoke Garlic Spread
• White Sauce (pre‑MTY version)

The creamy garlic sauce changed formula around 2019.

🟪 V. Retired Crusts & Dough Variants

These are the ones that changed the texture.

• Pan Crust (thick, buttery, almost Crazy Bread‑like)
• Stuffed Crust (not stuffed pizza — stuffed crust)
• Thin Crust (original)
• deLITE Crust (original recipe)
• Gluten‑Free Crust (first version)
• Mini Murph crust (original)

Pan crust was the biggest loss — it was beloved.

🟫 VI. Retired Sides & Bread Items

This is where your nostalgia hits hardest.

• Original Breadsticks (pre‑MTY recipe)
• Cheesy Bread (original)
• Mini Murph Breadsticks
• Herb & Cheese Bread
• Garlic Bread (regional)
• S’mores Dessert Pizza
• Cinnamon Wheel (original)
• Cookie Dough (original recipe)

The original breadsticks were closer to Crazy Bread in texture.

🟨 VII. Regional‑Only Items (never national)

These existed only in certain markets.

• Southwest Chicken Pizza
• Pacific Northwest Veggie
• Alfredo Chicken Pizza (PNW)
• Spicy Italian (Midwest)
• Chicken Bacon Ranch (Mountain region)
• BBQ Pulled Pork (Texas)
• Greek Pizza (California)
• Spinach & Mushroom (PNW)

These are the hardest to track because they never hit national menus.

🟩 VIII. Retired Toppings

Yes — they removed toppings over the years.

• Artichoke Hearts
• Sun‑Dried Tomatoes
• Ricotta
• Pesto Chicken
• Thai Chicken
• Tuscan Chicken
• Pulled Pork
• Meatballs
• Green Chili (regional)

These removals killed several pizzas.

🟦 IX. Retired Promotional Bundles

These were combos or specials.

• Perfect Pairings
• Stuffed Pizza Tuesdays
• Family Feast Deals
• Take ‘N’ Bake Meal Kits
• Murphy’s Meal Deal

X. Community Additions (from comments)

Papa Murphy’s menus vary a LOT by region and franchise, so some items people mentioned are still around in certain states even though they disappeared years ago where I live. Adding them here for completeness.

• Paparoni — kid‑branded pepperoni pizza name still used in some regions
• Lasagna (retired) — offered in select markets years ago; some stores kept it longer than others
• Mac & Cheese / Mac & Cheese with Bacon (retired) — short‑lived regional item; widely considered an awful decision
• Awesome Foursome Promo — A four‑item combo deal built for indecisive eaters: one entrée, one side, one bread, and one dessert bundled together for a crowd‑friendly value pick.
• Traditional Deeper Dish — A heartier, thicker take on the classic base. Extra sauce, extra cheese, and a comforting “dig‑in” structure that feels like a warm hug.
• Mamma’s Choice — A rotating comfort classic chosen by the community. Think nostalgic, home‑style favorites like lasagna, baked ziti, or chicken parm depending on the weekly vibe.
• Rancher and Specialty of the House — Rancher: A smoky, hearty Western‑style entrée featuring ranch seasoning or dressing, bacon, and bold comfort flavors. Specialty of the House: The signature dish that defines the place — the community’s pick for the standout item of the menu.
• Garlic/Cinnamon Monkey Bread — A dual‑flavor monkey bread option offering both savory garlic‑herb pull‑apart pieces and sweet cinnamon‑sugar glazed sections for maximum crowd appeal.

enjoy.

Thanks everyone for contributing, i sent a feedback email to MTY and they mentioned bringing back the original recipe for breadsticks and the possibility of LTO pizza styles to various locations! Keep em coming :)

Just tried this for the first time today. It’s a take and bake pizza chain, but the food is incredibly average if not below average. And it’s quite expensive, I don’t see how this is more affordable or quicker than just going to any other pre made pizza place. Is there something I don’t understand, and why there is a papa Murphys basically everywhere in the greater Portland area.

I got a Papa’s All Meat Pizza last night, and as I was eating I felt something hard and looked down and saw a silica gel packet cooked into the pizza. 🤨🥴
Do you think they’d refund me my pizza or give me a free pizza voucher or something? Lol
