For when you want a fast food pizza

There are times, when I crave a fast food pizza, nothing fancy or artisan, but an American-inspired pizza pie that's the size of a wheel and comes fully loaded. Papa John's fits the bill here and, in my opinion, certainly has the best choice from all the large fast food pizza chains here.
I ordered a Vegan NoChicken BBQ Pizza, which comes with Vegan Sheese, NoChicken chunks, mushroom, onion, and BBQ sauce drizzle. There was also a tub of hot garlic sauce, which was vegan, too. You can have it in a non-hot version, too.
I won't lie, I liked it. It filled a junk food pizza-shaped hole in my belly. I'll order again when the craving sets in...

You would have loved the vegan ranch one but they don't serve it anymore sadly. Pure junk heaven.

Alas, I won't find out. Bummer. Still, pleasingly junk-y when you need a spot of vegan junk food.

No vegan menu

No vegan menu available as of Feb 2025. But the cashier could order us vegan pizzas that were tasty though took some time to be prepared.

Great pizza!

A rich menu, the pizza was really tasty, great cheese, an indulgent amount of toppings. Only the pieces of the non-chicken were too low

Pleasantly surprised

Had a good vegan pizza delivery form here. And the garlic dipping sauces are fantastic.

Margarita sucks, sheese sticks are decent

A decent selection of vegan options and the delivery was very smooth and packaged neatly. But flavor wise the margarita pizza sucked. It wasn’t terrible but it tastes like someone ran out of mozzarella and decided to use cheddar cheese instead because it does NOT taste like a mozzarella maragarita. Very distinct cheddar taste AND look (I assume they use the Sheesh Cheddar judging by the name of their pizzas). The tomato sauce was good when it wasn’t assaulted by the cheddar flavor. And the crust is classic Papa John’s crust.

On the other hand, the cheese sticks are actually really good! The cheesy flavor is a bit muted but still yummy. They also provide a spicy garlic sauce which miiiight be vegan. It depends on what lactic acid source they use. But otherwise it doesn’t have any direct dairy ingredients.

Overall, given the accessibility of Papa John’s throughout the UAE I think it’s a decent joint if you’re craving vegan pizza. But I really think the maragarita pizza needs improvement. Namely not using vegan cheddar.

One of the best vegan pizza's in Abu Dhabi

Big vegan menu available for dine in and delivery. Serves vegan sides as well.

Pros: variety, price, taste

Cons: no desserts yet
