'Red roof' restaurants in Britain
The article currently claims American style 'red roof' premises exist in Britain, but I don't know of any and would be surprised if they did - the UK format is very different, consisting of high street restaurants indistinguishable from any other UK restaurant chain apart from the signage. I'm going to add a citation request. --Ef80 (talk) 14:56, 5 December 2014 (UTC)
- I agree, there's also been a huge number of closures of many UK restaurants over the last few years, but for some strange reason this information is being omitted? 86.22.43.187 (talk) 20:58, 25 May 2024 (UTC)
- Would this count as one?. The roof tiles are brownish rather than red, but otherwise it seems to fit the design. (Or did - its a KFC now). Iapetus (talk) 14:04, 27 October 2025 (UTC)
Germany and its misinterpretation of the logo
Many Americans probably have no idea that Germans tend to confuse that special kind of roof with a hat (German: Hut). Some Germans even call the restaurant "Pizza Hut" ('pItsa 'hu:t). I find it funny that this is nowhere mentioned in the article. The ancient logo depicted in the article (with the bignosed guy wearing a hat) might even suggest that this ambiguity is (or was) created on purpose. -andy 2.242.147.153 (talk) 00:27, 25 January 2015 (UTC)
- It's very unusual, in my experience, for Germans to pronounce Pizza Hut in the English way.
- I just learned that there are even Americans who have always assumed that the logo shows a red hat, haha. Compare (as pointed out in German Wikipedia) the hat Bessarion wears in a painting of the 15th century. --Florian Blaschke (talk) 23:24, 1 July 2024 (UTC)

The discussion under "criticisms" regarding salt - stating that toppings customers prefer contain salt is speculative, and the linked source does not contain any information to back this up. 180.150.36.98 (talk) 04:04, 17 December 2024 (UTC)
Done - Indeed, the statement about toppings is not verified by the source, and would fall afoul of Wikipedia:No original research#Synthesis of published material even if it was referenced. Thank you, and merry Christmas! ObserveOwl 🎄 (talk) 18:15, 17 December 2024 (UTC)
Refinancing/rescue deal
Splitting proposal
I suggest we demerge the WingStreet section on this article and make it its own page. 2601:18C:601:C720:2CC1:CF46:D357:D75C (talk) 15:50, 1 February 2025 (UTC)
