I will never ever come back to this pathetic attempt at a D.P dough. I say this attempt because the DP dough in normal is simply fantastic. The food is great, the staff is amazing, and I've never ever had a bad experience. However this location is by far the armpit of the chain. Where do I start with this walking crap factory? How about the guy behind the counter. So if you want to blast music in your work place I'm very okay with that, especially if it's 90s alt rock. What I'm not okay with is an employee who doesn't even attempt to speak up when you ask a question. He stood there looked at me with the dumbest face and mumbled his response. What was my question? I asked, "Do you guys still make the hot dog and Mac and cheese one" his response, "yeah". Couldn't hear him but I assumed that's what he said. My girlfriend ordered the Reggie. And then he looked at me waiting for me to order and I said the hot dog and Mac and cheese one we just spoke about. He then mumbled the order total, couldn't hear him again so I just handed him my card. The wait. 20 minutes for 2 calzones. As we waited I watched the beautiful machine at work. 6-7 guys all of them college aged walking around some of them half asleep some of them couldn't care less what they were doing, if one of them was a manager I sure as hell couldn't tell. So we waited and waited and waited and waited. And finally the food came!!! The food. Okay so I'm pretty sure the people that work at this dp dough have never seen a calzone before because the thing was more breading than meat. The thing was flat, burnt, had holes in it, and it was guess what, not what I ordered. Instead of the hot dog and Mac and cheese I was given the pulled Pork and Mac and cheese... So this all could have been avoided if the guy working the counter A. Cared about his job B. Spoke up in a loud room C. Wasn't apathetic about his job D. Had any sense of manners E. Wasn't hung over or possibly stoned. Or F. All of the above. The answer is F and that's what I give this rotten hole of an establishment. I will never return and I will do everything in my power to dissuade people from coming to this place. I guess I was spoiled in Normal with, you know a DP dough that didn't suck complete and total ass. read more

The customer service here sucks... I went in to pick up my food. The cashier (black guy, around 20-22, buzz cut in case his manager sees this) had his back to me so I said, "Hi, I'm here to pick up my order". He turns around, rolls his eyes, and doesn't say a word. I tell him my name, he gets my food, and puts it on the counter. I've been here a few times and normally the cashier or any decent person says something like "Do you need a bag?", "It looks like you already paid online", "Alright have a good one". You know...actually OPENS their mouth to acknowledge a paying customer. But the guy just stares at me for a few seconds then shoves the boxes of food across the counter towards me, and back around. He never said a word. Dude, if you hate people this much, why are you working the cash register? This is the third time I've been to DP Dough had a different employee act like they don't know how to deal with people. It's not all of the employees but it's enough that I won't be going back. read more

Ordered delivery late one night after returning home from the bars. We built our zones online and they were delivered surprisingly in less than 45 minutes, which was good. My girlfriend got a chicken, bacon and cheese zone while I built a steak, spinach and potato zone. Both were surprisingly tasty. My zone cost nearly $9, I knew steak was an upcharge but it seemed oddly expensive and the website did not have an itemized list of the upcharges for various ingredients. Both the zones were pretty good and were a big enough portion to save a little for the next day. D.P. Dough is very good drunk food. My big qualm was with the delivery itself. I received a call from the delivery driver stating that he was outside my building. I ran all the way downstairs and met the guy practically in the street. My building does not require a keycode or buzzer to get in. I'm really not sure why he didn't come up. I thought that when I paid the delivery fee and tipped the guy, I was paying for delivery to my door, not the street in front of my building. read more

Amazing service and amazing food. Big Rob and Dylan are the best, they get orders done quick and are fun to talk to while you wait. 10/10

I ordered the Hot Box Special, with a Spinner 'Zone (spinach calzone), fries, and a can of Cherry Coke. The total came to $9 with tax. I got a lot more food than I expected, but with less flavor than I would have liked. I was stuffed after eating 2/3 of the calzone, half of the fries, and all of the sauce. There was only a smidgen of spinach (mostly cheese and dough), and since I like tomato sauce, not enough of it. The soda was a splurge since I don't drink it often, but it's really not necessary. I would recommend saving a few dollars by not getting the combo, and instead getting just a calzone and an extra container of sauce for $0.60. That would put it on par with about 3 slices of decent pan style cheese pizza folded up. Think twice about paying more for toppings, because they were inconsequential in my order. Bottom line: I'm not planning on ever going back, but I don't feel sick or cheated, either. read more

Not great. Not exactly horrible. Their delivery service took a long time. They call them calzones but really they are glorified hot pockets. Probably good for the late night college kids, but I'm too old to eat here again. read more

DP Dough... My first impression of this place was not so nice. Fist time I had their calzone, I went to their place to pick it up. The place looked bit unsanitary and I noticed that not everybody was wearing gloves or had aprons. However, the second time a had DP Dough calzone, I ordered one. And yes, they do deliver to far destinations and work 24/7. So when you're hungry at 3am in the morning, DP Dough is what you should go for. I know that they have wide selection of calzones. However, I have tried only one kind, the "Ranch Buffer" couple of times. I remember it was pretty good (especially after several beers). I highly recommend trying it. read more

DP was my very favorite place to get food from when I was here, drunk or sober. I probably ate there once a week almost. Ordered it yesterday and first of all it was over priced. $30 for 2 calzones and 2 orders of tots. Whatever, I assure my boyfriend it would be worth it. Boy, was I wrong. I got the ranch buffer and it was so dry. There was hardly anything to fill it. Definitely didn't taste like there was any ranch in there at all. It was so bland and boring. I now remember I used to tell them I wanted ranch instead of marinara (shouldn't that just be standard? Do people really eat buffalo chicken anything with marinara? Serious question.) also, it would have been cheaper just to get the hot box deal with tots and sodas. Explain to me how it's almost half the price if you ADD another item (a can of soda). Also, the customer service part of the person taking the order should have been like "hey I see you are getting 2 calzones and tots, it's half the price if you add sodas." Overall just really disappointed. And sad. DP Dough was the one place I wanted to eat at while in Champaign. And while I wouldn't have minded $30 for the DP dough that was used to, to say our experience was disappointing is an understatement. read more

They have super chill employees. If you treat them like people they are very nice. The food is always on point and super fast. DP RULES!

You shouldn't expect too much from a corner pick-up restaurant like this. Not a lot of seats inside, so I'd suggest picking up (ordering through Eat Street seems to be most convenient) or getting delivery. The calzones are amazing. Definitely not the place to come if you're trying to eat healthy, but a place to come in and splurge. $6 calzones through the Eat Street app as well, so they're on the cheaper side. Customer service is what you'd expect. They like to loudly play music in there, so you either like it or you don't, but I'm usually in and out of there in a minute when I'm picking up so I've never had any issue! In all, amazing food, especially for the price. Can't really beat it. read more

I don't always take the time to review places but this one I will. These calzones are amazing! Pulled pork and Mac, buffalo zone, Italian. All fantastic. I appreciated the COVID caution and the fantastic costumer service. Good lunch special. My boys downed theirs, I got three meals out of mine! Get the cookies too yum!! read more

Ordered and had an emergency so couldn't be there for delivery. So I'm out money and never got jack shit. Thanks dp

This joint is way high quality and super affordable. Get garlic in any calzone and you will be very very happy.

Excellent late night munchies. Great food, open late, and fast delivery!

Food: Best drunk food in town (sorry Fat Sandwhich). Custom Calzones are fantastic, and priced relatively decent. Three different types of crust, quite an array of dipping sauces (Traditional Marinara, Garlic Butter, and au Jus being my favorites), a ton of different ingredients. 4/5 (5/5 when inebriated). Dinning: Nothing to speak of. The location has one, maybe two tables, and these are usually occupied by friends of on-shift employees or employees. The inside smells like sweat and grease. Would not recommend dining in. 1/5 Service/Delivery: Twice orders have been delayed up to nearly two hours. I've had to call 3-4 times to ensure that the driver was on their way. In staff, it's hit or miss. Sometimes the server behind the register is competent, swift, and on task. Other times, they are relaxed, disinterested, and slow. Always be careful when ordering out at bars as they hire new students who do not know the area, and can mistake your location. 3/5 Overall: Great food: seemingly endless customization, and just really tasty, especially with an IPA at the Blind Pig Brewery. Questionable customer service, inconsistent delivery times, and no dining in. 3/5 read more

I paid for extra ranch. They charged me for extra ranch. If I pay for something I better get it! I don't care whether it's $100 or one penny, if you promised something you better deliver. I called thrice to complain and got put on hold every time. I am VERY unsatisfied. read more

After debating for hours about where to eat, we decided to get delivery from dp dough.... aaaaaamazing food! Awesome pleasant surprise!

Today our order took an hour and a half to get here, and once it got here the chicken wings were soggy and cold. The calzones were undercooked. And on top of it all one calzone was missing, and we were offered only a refund or a calzone (2 hours after our order was placed). read more

Ben Wyatt would not approve. I ordered a firecracker calzone for delivery, paid 15% tip and my total was $10.92. It was just barely warm when I received it and the box was all soggy from the condensation. I had maybe 5 jalapenos in the whole 'zone. The sausage is super weird and leaves a terrible aftertaste. I think I've developed TMJ from the amount of effort I had to put into chewing the crust. This was my first and only time trying DP Dough. My mouth now tastes like a spicy armpit and I am not impressed. read more

This place is the worst. Their customer service was shotty and was acting aggressive when asked to repeat an order. There call service sucks and is assholes fuck them they suck read more

SO and I ordered again, and the calzones were much greasier this time and generally less tasty. We also tried the cheese bread sticks which neither of us liked. read more

Although I have been ordering DP Dough for over 7 years, they have really turned me off recently. Their calzones are delicious, but their customer service has been dismal the handful of times I ordered from them this summer (2014). They have been rude, or noticeably annoyed/bothered when I placed an order for delivery over the phone and chose to pay with a credit card. Their drivers delivered to the wrong address multiple times, even after I clarified where I was following the first few mistakes. One driver barely said a word to me after I greeted him with friendly words, and ended up handing me a fairly burnt Ranch Buffer. The food is spectacular, I have never had a calzone from any other business even come within range of competing, but you will have to deal with pissed off, overworked college students to experience it. read more

Always fantastic. Great customer service. Delicious, fast and fresh. We love their vegan and vegetarian options too!

Previously this would have been a 4-5 star review but the last two times that I have ordered during the lunch hour my calzones have been burnt and the fries have been over done (nice word for burnt). I used to love ordering from DP Dough because the food was awesome. Once they get a new cook then I may re-evaluate their resturant but unfortunately right now they are no longer one of my favorite resturants. read more

I'm a real internet woman, and I am very excited about my first foray into online journalism here on this post (I've been an Instagram photographer for years now). DP Dough never leaves you cold and alone in your own bed wishing you had settled for that nerdy scholastic bowl dweeb who said that you looked pretty even though he spat on you while he did it because of his braces; DP Dough comes up behind you and spoons you into a warm, deep sleep, and you'll wake up feeling like you never took took up webcam modeling for that coke money (when you had a terrible caffeine headache). I'm not saying that getting some hot DP is a good replacement for a husband, but what I will say is that you don't have to worry about your delicious passing zone running off with your credit card and your fresh-out-of-the-closet brother. You can always trust DP Dough to bring home the awakin' bacon and lead you safely out of the danger zone. And maybe everything on the menu isn't perfect, I mean if you walk into DP Dough and you order a salad then it's really your own fault. How could you not be disappointed when you're holding a stupid bowl of rabbit food when you could have the hot pocket of the gods? Not that there's anything wrong with their salads, but would you walk into White Castle and order hummus? I didn't think so. I have had almost every calzone on the menu, and even had a few constructed specially to my own specifications, and I have never had one that didn't leave me just as satisfied as the encounters I had with my gym teacher in grade school. So run, don't walk, into DP Dough on Green Street, order your zone, take it home and tell it you love it right before you sit down on your couch and devour it while an episode of Seinfeld plays in the background. It's the only thing that'll keep you from crying yourself to sleep again thinking how they almost let you work in that strip club until they found out about your weird rashes so you had to run away to take that job cleaning up after the elephants in the circus. read more

The food was good. Extra long wait due to the weather but my food just still warm..Yay!

When I saw the review of DPdough on Yelp, I didn't expect it to be very good, but the food turns out to be way beyond my expectation. I ordered BBQ chicken, and the food came hot and fresh. The dough is more like a wrapped pizza dough than a canzone bc it was toasted rather than fried. The bbq sauce is soo good and the dough is very soft and fluffy. The only shortage of this is that the texture chicken is not like fresh chicken, but more like frozen chicken nuggets those texture. But overall it's a very affordable and delicious dish! Would recommend. read more

Better than pizza and there's always running deals going on. I like the speed zone and buffer zone. Everyone should atleast try once

I'l just leave it at this....once I graduated, I had friends delivering buffer zones to me from Champaign to Chicago on the reg.

I have probably been to DP Dough more than any other eating establishment in my life. This was mainly due to the fact that it was pretty cheap, close to my apartment, and satisfied every drunken desire that I had. Because I went there so often, I knew what worked for me and what did not work for me. I was a big fan of the Black & Blue (tastes like a burger with blue cheese), the mangus (pesto and pepperoni), the titan (pesto and pineapple), and the buffer zone (blue cheese, hot sauce, etc). There was only one or two times where I was not completely satisfied with any of these. My friends were all big fans of the Barbecue Chicken zone. I have eaten it twice. The first time I was less than satisfied because of all the hype, but the second time I was happy with my decision. For the most part, the calzones were delicious. There were a couple times where they may have been a little undercooked, but I preferred that over being burned to a crisp. As for cons, there are times where the service is very slow. This is mainly because as a "drunk food" establishment, people normally order between the hours of 1-3 AM, when this place is bumpin'. It will generally take 30-45 minutes when you order at this time to get your food so plan accordingly otherwise you will be forced to observe the happenings at Green Street Cafe. Other issues people may have with the staff. I would not say that any interaction I have had has been particularly friendly, but I always just took that as how the environment there was. DP Dough was a large part of my collegiate experience and I have no regrets about all the money that I spent there. read more

Love this place. Was recommended to me by a friend and I could no be happier about my experience. Deliver was at a timely manner and the calzone is phenomenal. The dunkers are a little soggy, but I did get them tossed in sauce. If you want them crispy make sure you get the sauce on side. Other then that I give this place a 5 star. Hard to find someone to deliver a calzone these days. Thank you dpdough! read more

They falsely advertized a $1.99 Zone calzone deal through EatStreet.com on the U of I campus. They posted flyers saying you need to order through the EatStreet site, but then bait-and-switch you with a price that's 50% higher on the website. Skeezy time-wasting business-practices deserve one star and no patronage. read more

I get off work late and by the time I can find a point to look for something to eat, my choices are somewhat limited up north. So on my way home from work, I remembered a place my wife and I looked up on-line some time ago. There was no way they'd deliver to our area so I decided to drop by the D.P. Dough store. The reviews online have been, for the most part, positive. The menu from their website looked promising. I stopped by and ordered a couple of cal-zones and a cookie. I didn't know what to expect. There were a couple people ahead of me and I placed my order and waited a reasonable amount of time for my food. The price was decent, but I didn't spot the specials until after I ordered (so I missed out on a second cookie). Once home with my wife, we opened the boxes and dived into the cal-zones. From the very first bite, I definitely became a fan. I finished one half then picked up the cookie. It was still warm, still gooey and simply awesome. It was actually a pretty good sized cookie, enough to split between the two of us. Needless to say, I will be trying this place again for its other selections and making sure I get the special. read more

I ordered buffalo wings last night and the other lady in my party got plain wings. The wings were a complete disaster! The buffalo wings were soggy and not seasoned at all!!! I ate one and put it down. We put the wings in the oven to cook them some more and they still were awful! The breading is something I've never seen before. It's like they took them out of a package and put them in the microwave. Another person in my party got the calzone and was happy about it. But I beg of the ownership at this place; go back to square one with your wing recipe. Start all over!!!!!! Do not get package wings buy wings season and bread them yourself and then fry them. Until you do take the wings off the menu! read more

The most disappointing delivery experience I've ever had since being delivered at Alexian Brothers hospital. My standards for food past 2:00am are rock bottom, but DP Dough must be ADVANCED rock bottom. read more

Some great drunk food! Got the buffalo zone and it was delicious or so I thought? We did order really late and it kind of took forever and what made me mad was that some of our friends ordered after us and got it before us! read more

Reasonable drunk food at reasonable prices, plus they deliver. I would never get DP Dough sober, but some love it as late night study food.

DP Dough is the Fat Sandwich of calzones. They offer some odd choices like mac n cheese inside a calzone. But, if you order correctly they are very good! read more

Extremely friendly staff! The calzones were pretty tasty too..I ended up getting the ranch buffer which had a really nice Franks hot sauce kick to it. Can't wait to go back! read more

Great price for how full you can get, the hotbox deal is plenty for me! Staff is clearly made up of students but they are always friendly. Calzones are delicious, and the produce for the salads are surprisingly fresh for a pizza place. The Ranch-Buffer or the Firecracker are rock solid. Definitely one of my go-to choices on campus! read more
