Wow! We had the BBQBUFFALOBOTOMY large pizza which was fresh and cheesy… oh so DELICIOUS!!! We also indulged in the cookies & cream and cinnamon twist donuts… they were so fresh and moist!!! The staff were super sweet despite their small and hot space. I wish I lived closer because this would be my go to spot for cheat meals lol

There is no better place for vegan junk food than Apiecalypse Now. What more could you ask for they have donuts, soft serve, and such creative pizzas loaded with toppings and vegan cheese. I usually don’t even like daiya cheese that much but they do it so well here even the texture of the pizza crust is amazing. I had the pig destroyer pizza which had I think 5 different types of vegan meat. If you want to try mock meat(whether you’re vegan or not) this is the place to do it. The staff are super friendly and the place has lots of personality. Need to come back asap and try all their different pizzas!

I’ve always had the most lovely experiences with Apiecalypse Now. Their Mozza sticks, Pig Destroyer pizza and Yeezy Bread Sticks are my favourite. They also have amazing looking doughnuts that I can’t wait to try. The staff are delightful and their Instagram is on point. Love this place.

I’m not sure if I’m not use to vegan food or if it was the food itself, but my experience here was a little hit and miss. I had a slice of The Fackin’ Wheel and was torn between being impressed and confused. The dough is really well made, a solid crisp base for the toppings and the crust had a great texture and taste. However, for a pizza with two types of cheese, I didn’t taste any cheese flavor. The predominant flavor was definitely the garlic from the artichokes, which was good but its only one of the six ingredients. The Seitanrizo crumbles was a little jarring because it was strangely overly chewy, which clashed with the rest of the textures of the pizza. Maybe I didn’t order the right pizza for my first try? The fried tofu side was really well made. Great crunchy outside with a firm tofu texture inside. Definitely the winner over the pizza. Service was helpful and friendly. I would be open to trying another slice of pizza in the future, especially if I’m hanging out at Christie Pits right across the road.

I got the Toronto Island and 2 donuts. I didnt really enjoy it. The donut didnt have the normal deliciousness that would make you crave it on rare occasions… and for the price of $ 2.50 each. Definitely not worth it. The pizza was forgettable. Staff is very nice, getting in and out took a while if there was a line.

ABSOLUTELYBOMB. Ahem. ok. As far as vegan pizza, heck, vegan junk food goes — this is the best I have had. Period. Not just for vegans, guaranteed anyone will like this place. The toppings are indulgent but work perfectly. We had the Fat Mac(drool) and the Toronto Island. Get the creamy garlic dipping sauce! Annnnnd a Simpsons donut, because what are we, heathens?! Dessert is mandatory. Also, located across from Christie Pits, as others have mentioned. Lounge with your pizza and friends in the park! It’s summer! What more do you want!!! Ok, done aggressively professing my love now. (small small note, the crust was like, a little supbar on our second time, but I’ll chalk it up as a anomaly)

I got off the subway to meet a friend and I had this place bookmarked at one point but removed it thinking I would never visit, however when I saw it, I knew I had to try it. While I try to eat very healthy and mostly vegan these days, I definitely do miss a greasy pizza. Usually I can custom order a vegan pizza, but when I saw this place was also organic, I was SOLDSOLDSOLD. Atmosphere: mostly a takeout place with a few bar stools for eating in. What I ordered: Pepperonhy pizza. It had a thick crust with great texture. I usually prefer thin crust though, but I still loved it. In terms of replicating the look, it didn’t come close to the real thing(vegan cheese is very easy to tell apart from real cheese) but the Pepperonhy looked pretty close. In terms of replicating the taste, it was close except that it was BETTER! What I also like about this place is that they have a bunch of preset pizzas so you don’t have to think. Thinking’s hard man. In addition, they have vegan donuts. Verdict: For a vegan cheat day, this place is da bomb and will definitely cause an Apiecalypse in your mouth.

This pizza was lacking for me… It needed that zing… cheese and meat??? I know this is a vegan place, so it’s definitely not bad. but not the greatest. also, the sit in area was too stuffy, though there is a beautiful park just outside making it awesome. i got the big mac… and… it was. half there to tasting legit. i love my veggies… but this place didnt’ do it for me…

My boyfriend and I are from California and are visiting Toronto. We’ve heard from all the locals about this place. Hands down the best vegan pizza I’ve ever had in my life. Beats Los Angeles big time. Can’t wait to come back for this!!! I’m gonna be craving this so bad now…

Easily in the top five vegan spots in Toronto — actually, between Ontario and Quebec. My partner and I ordered three slices — The Toronto Island, The Fat Mac and The Pig Destroyer. I’ve never had a Big Mac but my partner said it was so similar and even garnished with a sesame seed crust. The Toronto Island and The Pig Destroyer were a solid 10 for flavour and texture. The crusts on each were crisp yet chewy. The garlic dipping sauce was balanced and well seasoned. The best part? The massive jalapeño poppers. Best I’ve had anywhere, vegan or otherwise. Spicy with an intensely flavourful filling, perfect crunch and thickness to the coating. If there is a must have here. It’s this — not even the pizza. Why not a five out of five? 1) their infamous Simpsons donut was far too greasy, dense and lacked flavour/sweetness 2) we threw out the tempeh wings. They were under seasoned and an off texture. They really shouldn’t be listed as wings at all. All in all, in the top 5. Service is beyond friendly. They can do no wrong when they have wonderful, patient service.

Ordered the Toronto island and another with Mac n cheese but couldn’t remember the name. The size is decent but I was really hungry so two was perfect. Really liked the crust, perfectly crisp, not dense. There’s limited seating area, but there’s a park right across so you can always grab and go. Coming from someone who’s not a huge fan of pizza in general, this place is absolutely amazing!

This vegan pizza place is located just opposite Christie Pits park. I’m not vegan, however my friend is and she highly recommended the spot to me… Her description was«you won’t even know it’s vegan!» She was right! I got a slice of the Fat Mac pizza which is inspired by the Big Mac. It tasted like an absolute replica of the Big Mac except it’s pizza and vegan! I also ordered the cheese sticks which were quite a large serving, you wouldn’t even know that’s vegan either. They also sell desserts here like donuts and ice cream. I’ll definitely be back to try the other pizza flavours and the desserts. The server here was also very lovely, best customer service I have experienced in Toronto!

Hands down the best pizza place ever. Came here for the first time today and tried the pig destroyer and it was so good! I’m in the area twice a week and I’m planning on eating here every time. Definitely want to try everything on the menu, they all sound so good.

The Pig Destroyer Destroyer is a must try(I suggest you use a garlic dipping sauce or any sauce that you like with their pizzas because they taste pretty dry without) also the donuts are amazing! I especially loved the Simpsons donut very creative and tasty idea. Would definitely come back :)

Great little vegan pizza shop outside of Christie station. The slices are a good size and reasonably priced. You can definitely see the work they put into these pies; making sure the flavours are harmonious and meat eaters don’t feel cheated, haha. I recommend the the pig destroyer destroyer– really great flavour!

I’m officially obsessed with this place. The first time I stopped in I only grabbed one slice, and thought it was a bit steep($ 4.50). But — I was wrong. The more I thought about it, the prices here are actually really reasonable. If I’m really hungry, I gluttonously buy 2 slices for myself and honestly, thats a full meal. It comes to about 10 bucks and when it comes to vegan pizza — this is as good as it gets! I love every bite, even the crust. If you’re feeling wild, there’s a whole bunch of flavoured dipping sauces too(Jalapeño Cheddar, anyone?) And for dessert, the donuts(only $ 2.50) are the best in the city!

Very tasty, if a little greasy, vegan pizza. Fake meats and cheese make you feel great that a pizza this great can indeed be vegan. I would say 4.5 stars to be more accurate. There isn’t much else; a limited seating area, kinda slow, though polite service. But Apiecalypse deserves to be on your radar as a must-try if looking to indulge yourself with some nostalgic local pizza.

Amazing!!! Pizza from other places just aren’t the same. Even pizza places with Daiya cheese(thanks to those for existing though!) don’t have the same intricacies as Apiecalypse Now. This place has the most amazing pizzas to choose from and you’re not stuck with one simple order because«that’s all you can eat». My favourite so far is the White Walker and I also love the Pepperphony one. I am really excited to try the mac and cheese one. There are simple, basic pizzas but also very unique and more gourmet pizzas. Plus, the staff are super amazing and friendly. Would highly recommend to anyone and everyone. Even if you aren’t vegan, try it out! Why not?

I had first heard about them from VegFest. One taste of their vegan pizza and I was hooked! I had to find out where this place was located. So I picked up their business card and I’ve been a regular customer ever since. Parking: Located downtown Bloor, so you’ll most likely have to pay for parking during daytime hours. Finding parking spots is random(it’s the parallel parking kind of parking you’ll have to be doing.) Venue: Very small walk in pizza joint. As is your typical pizza joint, you’re given a display of what you can grab and go or you can order it fresh off the menu. There are no tables to sit at, but there is however a counter where you can sit and eat your pizza. Washrooms: Well maintained, clean and stocked. Just 1 graffiti mark on the wall that’s about it. Experience: I had a great experience here, the staff are very cool to talk to, and the food is good. I’ve tried the Mac and Charlie, Reunion Tour, Toronto Island, the monthly special(a poutine pizza) and my personal favourite the BBQ Buffolobotamy which I order every time. The Jalapeño poppers was something I also ordered frequently, I’ve tried the mozza sticks and the poutine there. What I’d recommend are the BBQ Buffolobotamy and the Jalapeño Poppers, but that’s just me.

The worst crust I ever had in Toronto. It was like saw dust, dry and tasteless. The pig destroyer was terrible. This slice was too heavy in taste and also left a bad taste in my mouth. The BBQ sauce pizza was too heavy and sweet in flavor and also left a terrible after taste. Please improve on the crust and maybe a good tomato sauce would also be nice. Sorry to be nasty but a better crust and tasty toppings is an easy fix.

Loved the crust: tasty and soft. I had the pig destroyer and the nacho pizza. The pig destroyer was tasty but a bit heavy(for me). That’s not a surprise as it’s supposed to replace a meat lovers pizza! I thought the nacho pizza was great and should make it on the rotation. The pizza slices were flavourful and full of toppings. Between the two flavours I liked the nacho pizza better because it tasted exactly as I thought a nacho pizza would taste whereas the pig destroyer, while tasty, doesn’t quite taste like a meat lovers pizza(I’m a relatively new vegan so while I have no interest in eating omni, I remember the flavour profile). I also had the doughnuts. These were tasty too. The texture of the doughnuts surprised me too because they were light and springy, and had a different texture than doughnuts I’ve had previously(probably the effect of lard). But I liked that these doughnuts tasted lighter as well. Would get again. There were other non pizza items on the menu I’d try in the future. I noticed the island pizza was popular so I’m looking to try that as well.

Let’s keep this simple. Man walks into the store and gets a pizza. Man likes it so much that he orders another slice of pizza with different toppings. Man decides that he will be a regular at this place. That man is me! I am vegan and I usually get my pizza cravings fixed at Pizzaiolo. Well, not anymore.

Located on Bloor Street West on the southeast corner of Bloor and Christie the place is a small corner shop converted into a small take away. While there are a few seats perched in the windows looking west and north it really is a take out place. The place has a small selection of donuts and thin crust vegan pizzas by the slice. While we haven’t tried their pizzas, we tend to make our own, their donuts are just the right mix of doughy deliciousness and not too sweet toppings. Too often vegan desserts are far too sweet, but Apiecalypse manages the right balance in their donuts. The only issue is they that these yummy donuts disappear to quickly. While picking up donuts yesterday we discovered they also have a number of vegan nibbles, including their version of corn dogs, which I need to try, jalapeño poppers and mozzarella sticks.

They went above and beyond for me today with their customer service. They called me personally to assist with a prepayment and a delivery because I was unable to get to them. It is an extremely busy day for them and I truly appreciate the moments they took to assist me! And did I mention the food is GREAT!

I’ve been here several times and the food is great. The pizzas are made with daya cheese and are pretty delicious. The«pig destroyer destroyer» is really good and my favourite pizza there. All of their sandwhich specials are excellent. This month is a tempeh sweet potato with cabbage slaw sandwhich. It’s crispy, savoury, saucy goodness with just be right amount of tang. Definitely recommend it!

100% vegan. 100% junk food. 100% delicious. I tried… – The mac & cheese pizza. Decadent on top of decadent. 4 stars. – Jalapeño poppers. Best ever, even if remembering back to when I ate real cheese. 5 stars. – Donuts. Sugar topped with sugar topped with cookie bits. Yum yum. 5 stars. Prices are really low and service was very friendly. I’m glad I don’t live in Toronto, or I’d gain 100 lbs.

I had a slice each of the Toronto Island and the Whitewalker. Both were excellent BUT I had a bite of my husbands poutine and it was SOGOOD! The cheese on it was phenomenal. Doughnuts! Forget those other vegan doughnuts that are cake baked into doughnut shapes… THESEAREREALDOUGHNUTS and they are AMAZING!

I love apiecalypse. I loved them before I even ate anything from there store. Why? Because I love that they are 100% vegan and promote veganism in a way that isn’t about flowers, butterflies, and rainbows. I love that when entering their store you already feel a different vibe than most other vegan places, they have an activist edge to them and it’s awesome(I love my sticker that I got from there once that said«you want to hear a joke? «paleo» best thing ever). Now onto the food, I love that they don’t really care about it being 100% healthy, because being a vegan or eating vegan alternatives doesn’t always have to be about health. This is a great place if you are looking for something indulging and amazing. Their«mac & charlie» pizza is by far the most amazing pizza they have and i am hooked. i have tried their slices(which are also very good) but that Mac and cheese always keeps calling me back. On the desserts side, I’m not the biggest fan of their doughnuts they are okay to me, they look good, but I don’t know I’ve had some pretty amazing vegan doughnuts before and these guys have yet to amaze me. Their other desserts are quite though! Anywho, I will continue to frequent this place because they are just awesome in so many ways and I hope they are around for a long time!

I went here last week with my boyfriend. We’re both vegans and a little while ago I decided that I didn’t like vegan cheese because of Pizziolo, who covered my pizza in it and it tasted terrible. But my boyfriend bought the Mac and Charlie slice and it was AMAZING. They used the cheese so well. I tried the korn dog and I couldn’t even tell it was vegan. I highly suggest this place.

If you like vegan junk food, this is the place for you. The slices are so so good, my fav being the Mac n Charlie followed by Toronto Island & the Reunion Tour. I’ve been vegan for long enough to enjoy the taste of Daiya cheese, especially when it’s used skilfully and not just thrown haphazardly over a pie(like most non-vegan pizzerias do). However, if you’re a Daiya hater like my husband– do try the Reunion Tour slice as it has delicious house-made nut based ricotta type cheeze on it. I’d love to have one or two more slices with that stuff on it for him to have a variety. The korn dogs are amazing as well, highly recommended with the Jalapeño Cheddar dipping sauce. Their desserts are top notch. Possibly the best vegan donuts in the city, and a changing variety of other goodies too like peppermint Nanaimo brownie squares that are just so big and sugary and wonderful. The slices are on the smaller size so get two if you’re hungry and eat ‘em in the park while the summer’s still here!

Having a vegan pizza/snack shop open up around the corner from your house is just magical! Full disclosure here — I am not vegan BUT I am lactose-intolerant so having a cheese-less pizza option so close to me is amazing. I was actually really surprised when I bit into the BBQ pizza as the«chicken» on it could have honestly fooled me. If you didn’t tell me it was vegan I probably wouldn’t have believed you, other than the dayia cheese of course. I mean I like dayia but it’s really only because I don’t have a ton of other options. Also the desserts here are to DIE for. Probably some of the best sweet treats I’ve had vegan or not. Get the mint nanaimo bar — you will not regret it. I must go back to try the soft serve.

Got a slice of pizza — the pig destroyer. It was amazing! Great flavours, with some garlic and bbq to it. Mmmm daiya cheese =D Crust is good thickness and fluffy. Toppings flavourful. If you’re hungry, one slice is definitely not enough. Prices for each slice range from $ 3.20 for the classic ‘pepperoni’ slice to the more gourmet ones. Sooo tasty. Would def recommend! Located across from christie pits, you could just grab pizza and go across to the park for a picnic.

Pretty good pizza for a place that isn’t even open yet! In about a month, this will be a proper vegan pizza and snack bar, complete with g-d corn dogs. CORNDOGS! I’m excited just by the prospect. Why Hogtown, Sadie’s and literally every veg place with a deep fryer doesn’t have vegan corn dogs, I don’t know.(If Chicago Diner can do it…) We tried one of every slice they had available: A white pizza, a mac ‘n cheese(why did this take 7 years to come to Toronto??? Another Chicago thing), a standard pepperoni and a BBQ chicken. Tasty toppings, but the crust was on the thin side on most slices and a bit crackerish which isn’t really how I like my pizza. I’m into a thicker, more chewy and satisfying crust unless it’s Napolitana style, which this isn’t. Also, stuff that crust baby! Couple that with the ranch dipping sauce that used to be at the Apiecalypse Bakery and that’s good. I’ve eaten myself into a food coma on homemade stuffed crust pizza and Apiecalypse ranch many times. The place has bar seating for roughly 6 and 4 chairs along the wall but it’s definitely take-out style so don’t plan to bring a group unless you’re headed to the park.(Stop stealing my ideas!) Overheard talk about dessert(pizza?) options and there were a couple donuts for this soft opening, making it the 4th place you can buy vegan donuts within 3 subway stops(Bloomer’s, The Steady, Through Being Cool — not to mention the vegan baked goods at Bakerbots and D-Beastro).
