cajunaggie08 Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 Papa John's first tried to rebrand 3 years ago but wound up just sticking to a flatter version of their longtime logo. This time they seem to be going all in on the change and will be Papa Johns without an apostrophe. https://www.restaurantbusinessonline.com/marketing/papa-johns-ditches-apostrophe Old: Unused: 2018-2021: New: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferdinand Cesarano Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 Boo to the removal of the apostrophe. This makes me think of Johns Hopkins or Glyn Johns or Jasper Johns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeauxColonels Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 Wow, that’s pretty bland. Not a fan of this at all. I, too, don’t care for the removal of the apostrophe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8BW14 Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 Yeah pretty boring. The unused logo is far and away the best of the bunch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stumpygremlin Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 They shouldn't have removed the apostrophe. The chain was started by a guy named John. That guy turned out to not be a great guy, but it doesn't change the fact that he started the thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Admiral Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 This should allow them to do business in Quebec, like Schwartzs. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dilbert Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 The updated logo makes it look like its one of those local mom and pop greasy hole in the wall pizza places. While that may be okay locally, a look like this for an international chain is awful. Signature intentionally left blank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

floydnimrod Posted November 18, 2021 Share Posted November 18, 2021 Does the unused logo remind anyone else of something else? Really vague I know, but I can't quite place where I've seen something very similar. Mancakes: The Bandhttps://twitter.com/FloydNimrod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah but unlike Papa John's Schwartzs is actually food.

gosioux76 Posted November 18, 2021 Share Posted November 18, 2021 Maybe they wanted to separate themselves from the similarly named taco chain, which also recently rebranded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

letsgomets1212 Posted November 19, 2021 Share Posted November 19, 2021 I see this as a missed opportunity to just rename the brand Papa’s. Or Papas if you don’t like the apostrophe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
