The Best Vegan Pizzas in Los Angeles
Plant-based pizzas deliver all of the flavor with none of the meat

Every season is pizza season, right? Between the abundance of imaginative chefs and beautiful produce available here year-round, there are vegan pizzas aplenty in Los Angeles. Even chains like Lucifer’s, Z Pizza, Blaze, Pizza Man and Whole Foods are keeping vegan cheeses on hand for dairy-free customers. Mangia!

The Butcher's Daughter
The New York-grown, plant-based restaurant enjoys an airy home in Venice that's known for its stone oven-cooked pizzas, all of which can be ordered vegan via Daiya cheese. Large portions and ocean breezes make The Butcher's Daughter a cool stop on an Abbot Kinney stroll.

California Sun
From the people who brought us the neighborhood classic Mohawk Bend comes California Sun, a bustling deli in the heart of Silver Lake offering Detroit-style deep dish pizzas and gigantic New York-style slices with three vegan options daily. The crispy Kale See-sar with breaded seitan “chicken” can be ordered as a pizza or a salad, while many of their daily “scoops and salads” are vegan, too.

Dough Girl
This Valley gem offers 12-inch "selfie" pies (meant for one but could be shared--if you're feeling generous) and chewy "big dough" thick-crust pizzas, with tons of vegan topping options, from "vegan BBQ pollo" to a classic "veggies and cheese" to the "vegan hottie" and more.

Mohawk Bend
This Silver Lake staple keeps it classic with vegan cheese, vegan pepperoni, a baked potato pizza, and their signature Angry Vegan (for lovers of the hot stuff!), using a combo of Kite Hill and Follow Your Heart cheeses to their fullest potentials. People come as much for the 70 taps of California craft beer as the amazing happy hour deals, while their Piece of the Pie special always benefits a local nonprofit.

Piencone Pizzeria + Creamery + Pub
This spacious Eagle Rock joint known for scrumptious wood-fired pizzas does plant-based right, allowing customers to build their own using their housemade vegan sausage, a pillow-like vegan ricotta, and vegan mozzarella. DIY or try the Chipotle Corn for something different.

Triple Beam Pizza
You eyeball the size slice you want, they cut it with scissors, you scarf it down. Whole vegan pizzas are made Sicilian style, sans cheese and topped with peppers, olives, capers, arugula and tomato sauce, perfect with a personalized side salad.

Pizzanista!
From their their Downtown L.A. spot to the Pizzanista! in Long Beach, outrageous offerings like vegan Macaroni and Cheese slices and Seitan Meats Jesus pies (heavy on the faux meats) keep folks stumbling in after a night at the club or for afternoon brunch with adult beverages.

The Luggage Room Pizzeria
Enjoy this Pasadena favorite’s naturally vegan Dalai Lama, or modify any of their olive wood-fired pies by adding the house-made cashew-based cheese and/or vegan pesto. The Farmers Market pizza, always vegetarian, features locally-sourced fresh vegetables. The setting is perfect for large groups and history buffs—eat alfresco on the patio or inside the 1934 Del Mar Train Station, doted on by top-notch staff.

Purgatory Pizza
Known for the best thin crust east of the LA River, Purgatory serves up a heavenly 12 types of vegan pizza, including a deep dish option. Dine in, pick up, or have it delivered for free if you’re lucky enough to be within a 3.5 mile radius.

SunCafe Organic
The chefs here know vegan food and it shows, especially in this Studio City restaurant’s Cheesy Artichoke pizza (a hearty blend of vegan cheeses, grilled artichokes, and tomato confit) and the White Truffle Pizza (topped by spinach, broccolini and mushrooms). Enjoy with friends or learn how to do this yourself in one of Chef Ron Russell's Saturday morning cooking classes.

Cruzer 100% Vegan Pizzeria
Cruzer 100% Vegan Pizzeria gets credit as pioneers in the vegan pizza game—the first all-vegan pizza delivery place in Los Angeles has been pleasing palates in Los Feliz/Hollywood for years. Extensive listing of toppings and menu of pizzas, subs, pastas and sides keeps us ordering online, again and again.

WOOD Silverlake
The roomy Silver Lake bar offers Daiya cheese as a substitute on any of their wood-fired Neopolitan pizzas, while the small plates of Crispy Brussels Sprout, Roasted Cauliflower and Truffle Fries make perfect sides for sharing.
