Vegan Domino’s Pizza Q&A
We’re sorry to say that it’s not vegan. Usually, gluten-free foods contain eggs. But, in this case, the pizza crust is free of eggs but includes honey as an ingredient.
Unfortunately, none of them are vegan-friendly. They all include milk in their ingredient lists.
Nope. The garlic oil blend contains parmesan cheese. Instead, try the garlic and herb seasonings to get a similar flavor.
Only the Robust Inspired Tomato Sauce is vegan-friendly. The rest contain milk ingredients, including the Hearty Marinara Sauce, which is disappointing and somewhat misleading.
The croutons are not vegan. They contain a milk ingredient, so you’ll need to ask for food without them.
No, the bread bowls are made with milk ingredients so they would not be vegan. If the bread bowl was dairy-free, this would be a great option.
The one ingredient that is questionably vegan in the thin crust is the l-cysteine amino acid that is used for conditioning the dough. This amino acid is generally extracted from animals (or even human hair), but it can also be plant-based through a process of fermentation using plant starch. In the overall scheme of things, this non-essential amino acid is not actively harming animals and it’s really a very minute ingredient. Literally a molecule. If that’s not something you feel comfortable with, you can choose the pasta dish with lots of veggies as a safer option.

Creating a Kinder and More Accessible Domino’s Pizza Vegan Experience
Although Domino’s is known for not being very vegan-friendly, we don’t want to give up hope that they will change their mind and make vegan cheese a menu item. There are so many more vegan-friendly pizza places popping up all over the country (and the world!), so we’re going to keep our fingers crossed that Domino’s Pizza will become a part of it all. We’re dreaming of the day when appealing alternatives might be added to their meat-heavy menu – like dairy-free cheese, plant-based meats, and sweet, decadent vegan desserts. Until then, we can always write to, call, or contact the managers of any location to make our requests.

My favorite vegan pizza is from Blaze. They use separate utensils and gloves to avoid cross contamination and I can get as many toppings I want even pineapple for the same price! When I was vegetarian, I went to Domino’s and ordered a veggie pizza and they prepared it with an order after mine touching the meats before making my pizza with the same gloves. I asked for a new one and never went back!!
That’s awesome Blaze does that! I will have to check them out!
Dominos Australia have vegan cheese and vegan meat. They have about 7 vegan pizzas.
Wow, that’s incredible! So exciting that they are expanding their vegan options abroad!
This was incredibly helpful, I didn’t even know so many options could be made vegan
Unfortunately in the US a dough conditioner is used that is derived from cows milk whey. It is confirmed to be used in all the doughs so there is no true vegan pizza here but AU is killing it wow!
Hi Joanna, thank you so much for commenting and sharing this information! The dough conditioner (l-cysteine) could very well be animal and not plant-based. Some countries do use a non-animal based amino acid, so we’re crossing our fingers that it’s true in this case. We’ve contacted Dominos in hopes that they can give us more specific information about the source of their l-cysteine. We truly appreciate your support of this article and feedback for the vegan community. It’s great to know that Australia’s Dominos is doing so well. Wooo! Hope that the US follows suit asap. Thanks again!
Love this! Hoping the get vegan cheese soon. That’d be epic.
Although I’m not a huge fan of Domino’s Pizza, I do like the number of veggie toppings that they offer. I hope they’ll add vegan cheese to the menu ASAP!
I didn’t know Domino’s had so many vegan options! I may be ordering from there soon. I didn’t expect for so many of their sauces to be vegan!
So glad to see so many vegan options at Domino’s! The sample pizza order sounds delicious to me!
