\"PapaPapa John\u2019s might not be quite as familiar as other pizza specialists\u00a0Pizza Hut<\/a> or Domino\u2019s<\/a>, at least to many UK residents. But, they provide a very good alternative to those two when it comes to plant-based food, including some excellent vegan pizzas.<\/p>\n

In this article we\u2019ll run through all the vegan options at Papa John\u2019s<\/a> to give you a quick overview of what you can expect if you are seeking a tasty vegan pizza.<\/p>\n

As with other food outlets that serve non-vegan food as well as vegan-friendly options, there is always a chance of cross-contamination. Unless you have severe allergies to, for instance, milk, the risk is so small to be fairly irrelevant. But some people would prefer to avoid even that minor risk. In which case, opting for a fully vegan food company or buying your own vegan option from the supermarket may be preferable. Or, of course, making your own!<\/div>\n

Vegan Food Options at Papa John\u2019s<\/h2>\n

Papa John\u2019s have managed to produce more vegan-friendly pizzas than either of their aforementioned rivals and the variety of toppings is sure to appeal to many a pizza-loving vegan. They\u2019ve also added plenty of vegan sides too (Vegan Cheese and Marmite Scrolls, anyone?!) and, in case you have a voracious appetite, a few vegan desserts too.<\/p>\n

Which Pizzas Are Vegan at Papa John\u2019s?<\/h3>\n

\"Vegan<\/p>\n

At the time of writing, there are seven distinct vegan-friendly pizzas at Papa John\u2019s, all available in various sizes with a choice of bases. Here are the details of the current crop of vegan pizzas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Vegan Pizza<\/th>\nDescription<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n
Vegan Cheese & Tomato<\/td>\nThough most Margherita-style pizzas are fairly basic, this one is particularly so. Containing vegan cheese and pizza sauce, we\u2019d recommend upgrading to one of the other options. Unless you like things nice and simple, of course.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Vegan Garden Party<\/td>\nThis is more like it! As above, but with added tomatoes, onions, green peppers, sweetcorn and chestnut mushrooms, this is a far more satisfying vegan feast of a pizza.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
The Stinger<\/td>\nOne for vegans who used to be partial to pepperoni in their non-vegan days, the Stinger has a good dose of Amarillo chilli sauce on the base, as well as vegan cheese, jackfruit \u201cpepperoni\u201d and red chilli peppers. Nice and spicy!<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
The Alice Tai<\/td>\nAnother reasonably imaginative vegan pizza, this one contains pizza sauce, vegan cheese, vegan sausage, chestnut mushrooms, green peppers, onions and black olives.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Jackfruit \u201cPepperoni\u201d<\/td>\nA fairly simple option with vegan cheese, pizza sauce and jackfruit \u201cpepperoni\u201d, it could almost pass for a real pepperoni pizza (though with about half the fat content!).<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
The Vegan Works<\/td>\nThis pizza is something of a feast and contains pizza sauce, vegan cheese, jackfruit \u201cpepperoni\u201d, vegan sausage, chestnut mushrooms, green peppers, onions and black olives. Definitely one for those with a hearty appetite.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Vegan Chilli Freak<\/td>\nAnd, finally, one for the vegan spice lovers out there. Made with Amarillo chilli sauce as the base sauce, vegan cheese, green pepper, red chilli peppers, jalape\u00f1o peppers and onions, this one has a real kick to it!<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

Which Pizza Toppings & Bases Are Vegan at Papa John\u2019s?<\/h3>\n

If you don\u2019t fancy any of the vegan pizzas mentioned above, you can create your own by combining one of the vegan-friendly bases with whichever vegan toppings take your fancy. Note that the pizza dough is vegan as standard at Papa John\u2019s, but you need to specify the vegan stuffed crust base if that is your preference. The flour they use for dusting is also vegan (indeed, most flour is vegan<\/a> these days).<\/p>\n
