Pizza Pie Café’s Gluten-Free Pizza
All of the gluten-free pizzas start with the:
- Gluten-Free Cheese Pizza – The classic! Simple, yet so satisfying.
You then build your own gluten-free pizza with toppings like Italian sausage, chicken, bacon, and extra cheese. There are so many options to please both basic and adventurous eaters.
The only bummer is that gluten-free pizzas come with an additional $2.00 charge. But in my opinion, it’s worth it for pizza that actually tastes amazing.
Beyond Pizza: Gluten-Free Pasta, Salads, and Desserts
While the gluten-free pizza steals the spotlight, Pizza Pie Café’s menu features so much more. You’ll also find gluten-free pasta dishes, fresh salads, and even crave-worthy gluten-free desserts.
For a taste of Italy, try one of their gluten-free pasta entrees like the Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo or Spaghetti Marinara. The pastas are made from a specialty gluten-free flour blend with a tender texture reminiscent of traditional wheat pastas.
If you prefer a lighter meal, head over to the expansive salad bar. It’s packed with super-fresh vegetables and lean proteins like grilled chicken and hardboiled eggs. Since you assemble it yourself, it’s easy to avoid croutons or other glutenous toppings.
But the real showstoppers are the gluten-free dessert pizzas. We’re talking ooey-gooey chocolate chip cookie dough pizza and decadent Oreo cheesecake pizza – entirely gluten-free! It’s the ultimate way to satisfy your sweet tooth.
Gluten-Free At All Pizza Pie Café Locations?

I recommend calling your nearest Pizza Pie Café or checking their website to confirm gluten-free availability before visiting. Since gluten-free offerings can change, it’s always best to verify directly with that location.

Pizza Pie Café History
The owner Matt grew up around his father who had a pizza restaurant in Delta, Utah called The Pizza House. It was an old house converted into a restaurant and has now converted back to a rental home. In 2003, Pizza Pie Café started as a venture in Rexburg, Idaho as Craigo’s gourmet pizza. The pie shop was by Brigham Young University- Idaho and it grew so quickly that they had to move to a bigger facility in 2005 and Pizza Pie Café was born.

Locations:
Pizza Pie Café is mostly located in Idaho and Utah and 1 store in Mesa, Arizona. They are expanding as they offer franchises, so I believe that we will be seeing more and more popping up throughout the United States.
Menu:
Pizza Pie Café does offer a wide variety of gluten-free pizza, pasta, salad and dessert pizza. On top of the regular buffet price there is an additional $2.00 charge per gluten-free pizza. But the beautiful thing is that you can take all the pizza as leftovers when you are done. Obviously, they can’t do the cookie dough or Oreo dessert pizza gluten-free, but they have a list of what topping are available for regular and gluten-free pizza.
