Updated in 2021! When it comes to dairy-free and vegan options, Pieology is upstaged by other build-your-own pizza joints, like MOD and Blaze. They do offer several dairy-free sauces and toppings, but there’s one big problem. Pieology’s standard, wheat-based pizza crusts contain milk. Nevertheless, Pieology can build a mean dairy-free and gluten-free pizza, sprinkled with vegan “cheese,” and piled high with toppings. See our menu guide below for all of the dairy-free, gluten-free, and vegan menu choices.

Vegan Menu for Pieology
All of the above are also vegan-friendly, except for the meats. The plant-based proteins are vegan, and so are the sauces, oils, vegetable toppings, and gluten-free crust.

I was told by employees that the white crust contains whey, the wheat crust has honey, and that the red sauce is made with chicken broth. One employee told me the pesto was vegan, but the website says it contains milk. One branch had a ‘vegan red sauce’ stashed behind the counter. Why offer vegan daiya cheese, but make it so difficult to actually order a vegan pizza, oh Pieology?
Hi Masala, they offer a great nutrition chart with allergen info. Like the dairy-free cheese, the wheat crust and gluten free crust are dairy-free and egg-free. The red sauce and a few other sauces are dairy-free (unfortunately, most pesto you will find at restaurants does contain cheese). As for strictly vegan, they don’t provide this information on their website, so I appreciate you sharing it.
Pizza Studio locations in Utah offer vegan cheese as well as an entirely vegan pizza creation!
You are awesome Alicia, I will be sure to add this!
