Aliu IsaWe were hanging out at a friend’s house watching the game, starving after a long day, when someone suggested pizza—a classic move. The delivery showed up, I grabbed a slice, took a bite, and—whoa.
Crispy crust, gooey cheese, spicy ‘pepperoni,’ garlicky mushrooms, and a drizzle of tangy hot honey.
“Dude, where did you get this heavenly pie? What flavor is this?” Then, my friend smirked and said, “Guess what… it’s vegan.”
Mind. Blown. No wonder even non-vegans rave about these spots—the flavors are unreal! So, if you’re craving a top-tier plant-based pie, here are the best vegan pizza joints in Toronto.

Must-Order: Deluxe Vegan Pizza
Panago Pizza is a spot that takes nutritious and fresh ingredients seriously. They stick to the basics of what food was meant to be: no added MSG, no artificial flavors—just real, delicious food.
We recommend their Deluxe loaded with plant-based pepperoni and fresh veggies. Another crowd fave is their mouthwatering plant-based Mediterranean.
Their secret weapon is their plant-based ‘cheeze,’ a certified vegan alternative that’s smooth and creamy without any artificial stuff. Plus, all their crusts are free from animal by-products.
As a bonus, you can customize any pizza on their menu by swapping out regular cheese for plant-based cheeze and loading it up with your favorite toppings.
Pro Tip:
Keep an eye on their online promos—Panago often drops killer deals where you can score up to 50% off your order. A solid vegan pizza at half the price? Yes, please.

Must-Order: Cheesy Garlic & Za’atar
Levant Pizza uses old-school techniques to craft something special, starting with their signature focaccia crust, made from fine “00” Italian flour and cold-proofed for four days.
The dough comes out thick yet incredibly airy, pressed into a well-oiled pan, and left to rest overnight before baking. The result is a light, crispy pizza crust that tastes straight out of a Sicilian restaurant!
One of their biggest crowd-pleasers is the Cheesy Garlic & Za’atar. This vegan beauty is loaded with garlic confit, fragrant za’atar, and melty vegan mozza.
If you want something with a bit more depth, their Upside Down “Maqluba” is a must-try. It’s a flavor-packed mix of garlic confit, roasted cauliflower, smoked eggplant, cherry tomatoes, vegan mozza, and a dreamy seven-spice labneh crème.

Every pizza here is made fresh to order, right in front of you. You get to watch as your pizza transforms from simple ingredients into a sizzling, golden-crusted masterpiece.
As for their vegan pizza, we just love their 12” Veggie Lover. It’s as healthy as it’s delicious, and it comes with tomato sauce, mozzarella, wild mushrooms, onions, green peppers, and black olives.
Another solid choice is the Fiordilatte, a classic combo of tomato sauce, Fior di Latte, Parmesan, and fresh basil; it’s simple but bursting with that rich, traditional Italian flavor.

Now, a killer vegan option is their Vegan Love Pizza, topped with plum tomato sauce, kale, beech mushrooms, grilled cubanelle, lime pesto, and fresh dill. You can get it in 12” or 16”, depending on how hungry you are (or how much you want leftovers).

Vegan pizza lovers, you’re in luck—you can swap out mozzarella for Numu Vegan Cheese on any pizza for free. No extra charge, and no compromise on flavor.
We really love their Green Out pizza. This fresh, herby combo of spring cream, spinach, semi-dried tomatoes, salsa verde, and pecorino is something we want to gatekeep, but we won’t.
Another classic choice is their Margherita, which features sauce, mozzarella, basil, Grana Padano, and a drizzle of olive oil. Swap in the vegan cheese, and you’ve got a simple but insanely tasty pie that hits all the right notes.

Pizzeria Libretto was one of the first spots in the city to serve VPN-certified pizza, following the strict guidelines set by the Napoli government.
Their signature Neapolitan dough goes through a 72-hour fermentation process, giving it that light, airy texture with just the right amount of chew. Then, it’s cooked at a scorching 850°F, creating a beautifully charred, blistered crust.
We recommend their Impossibly Vegan Pizza, with vegan fior di latte mozzarella, shredded vegan cheese, Impossible meat, basil, and a drizzle of green goddess dressing. It’s herbaceous, savory, and packed with layers of flavor.
You can also swap out any cheese for their housemade vegan fior di latte and even switch to a gluten-free crust if that’s your jam.
Pro Tip:
Definitely try their vegan dipping sauces, with yummy options like crema di peperoncino, green goddess, hot maple, and roasted garlic parmigiano-reggiano!

One of their biggest hits is the Vodka Pizza. This beauty comes loaded with tomato cream, cashew mozzarella, basil pesto, and chili bomba.
We recommend pairing your slice with one of their signature cocktails—the Kombucha Mojito. It’s a refreshing mix of rum, mint, lime, blueberry, and local kombucha.
