Vegan pizza is not nearly as scarce in Toronto as it once was, and the quality and selection just keeps getting better and better. Whether you want a raw, sprouted crust, Daiya cheese or a nutty alternative, these places can deliver.
Here are my picks on the top places to chow down on vegan pizza in Toronto.
Planta
Everything at this Yorkville restaurant is 100 per cent plant-based. On the menu, you'll find five different pizzas including The Bianca with roasted rosemary potatoes, cashew mozzarella, kale, olives, capers and hot chilli oil.
Pizza Del Arte
Vegans will find eight different options at this popular pizza joint with multiple Toronto locations. Start by selecting a size and then choose from pies like the Vegan Cheeseburger with chopped up vegan burger patty, red onion, tomato and Daiya cheese.

Apiecalypse Now!
Exclusively vegan pizzas are available across from Christie Pits Park. Choose from selections like the faux-meat lover's Pig Destroyer Destroyer, or try the Fat Mac that resembles a Big Mac from McDonalds.
Blaze Pizza
The Lebron James-endorsed pizza chain is not only fast—180 seconds to be exact—but when you opt to build your own pie, you can select vegan cheese along with a whole slew of other toppings to accompany it.
Pizzeria Du
One of Toronto's fanciest vegan fine dining restaurants, Avelo, now has a plant-based pizza pickup and delivery joint. It's operating out of their old Away Kitchen space at 536 Queen West. Six pizza offerings are available Wednesday through Sunday.
North of Brooklyn
This popular Toronto pizza purveyor with a few locations scattered around the city has vegan cheese on the menu. This means you can build your own pie on their crunchy thin crust with all your favourite veggie toppings. Even better, they don't charge extra for the substitution.

Village Pizza
This mini pizza chain with locations in Bloorcourt and Dundas West serves something called The Hungry Vegan. It's a meatless treat, made with tomato sauce, grilled red pepper, zucchini, eggplant, caramelized onions, and a dressed arugula salad.
Salt & Tobacco
All the pizzas on the menu at this Cabbagetown pizzeria can swap in vegan cheese with no additional charge. They also offer gluten-free crusts.

Relish
The menu at this Danforth mainstay has a ton of delicious vegan and gluten-free bites. This most certainly includes pizza. It's made in-house and comes with spinach, portobello mushrooms, artichoke hearts and olive tapenade with truffle oil on top.
Veggie D'Light
The meat-free, egg-free, and dairy-free Caribbean restaurant in Kensington Market is slinging pizza cakes along with their usual menu items. Order them for pickup Friday through Sunday.
