Want to order up the best vegan pizza delivery from your local pizza chain? Trying to spot the best vegan pizzas on restaurant menus? We’ve got you covered with this Vegan Pizza Restaurant Guide to ordering delicious vegan pizza from popular pizza restaurants.
We all love pizza, right? And we all lead busy lives, leaving us little time to prepare a meal from scratch at home. Ordering pizza and having a cheap hot meal delivered to your door is such enjoyment. And if you’re eating plant-based, there are more options for vegan pizza these days—even at popular restaurant chains. Today, there are many pizzerias keeping up with the times by putting vegan options on their menus, including vegan pizza dough, vegan cheese pizza, and pizza with tempeh, and tofu. But when you can’t get to one of those special family-run places, and you want to have a pizza delivered from the chain store down the road, how can you get a pizza that has vegan toppings? Fortunately, many popular pizza chains are vegan-friendly, so not to worry! You can still enjoy a pizza pie without much difficulty. Which is why I’m sharing this Vegan Pizza Restaurant Guide below.
Many generic pizza chains don’t carry vegan cheese (yet!), but it is becoming more and more common, and cheese-less vegan pizza can still be super delicious. You might think that ordering a vegan pizza at one of these chains is as simple as requesting they leave the cheese off, and that may work some of the time, but the truth is, sometimes the crust and/or the sauce may not be vegan. Don’t be afraid to ask your local pizza restaurants if their ingredients are free of animal products! If they are, then you are good to go. For the Vegan Pizza Restaurant Guide below, we have done the work for you by inquiring. You can also request that the pizza restaurant use clean tools for your pie to avoid any stray sausage bit from falling into your veggie pizza party.
Now you just need to choose your toppings. Pizza places usually have long lists of veggie topping choices. Choose from artichoke hearts, mushrooms, caramelized onions, sliced red onions, sun-dried tomato, zucchini, jalapeno peppers, roasted red peppers, fresh basil, green olives, broccoli, pineapple, broccoli, spinach, eggplant, tomato, roasted garlic, banana peppers, black olives and more!

Tips for Boosting Your Vegan Pizza Delivery
Once your pizza reaches the door, you can enhance your vegan pizza delivery even more with these tips.
- Does your pizza come without vegan cheese? No problem! Grab a bag of shredded vegan cheese in your fridge, preheat your oven while you wait for the pizza to arrive, and once it gets there, sprinkle some of your cheese on it and pop it into the oven for another few minutes.
- To get your cheese fix with no baking required, sprinkle on some nutritional yeast or vegan parmesan.
- Try adding fresh sliced avocado to your pizza.
- You can also add crumbled vegan sausage, bacon, or tempeh on top of your pizza delivery for more of the good stuff.
