Pizza Punks





It can be difficult for those on a gluten free diet to find somewhere that offers gluten free pizza, especially ones that look very similar to ordinary pizzas made from wheat flour. However at Pizza Punks they offer fantastic gluten free pizza bases!

Pizza Punks is a pizzeria located in Glasgow city centre, St Vincent Street. They offer a number of already pre made pizzas from Margherita, Hawaiian, Pulled Pork and a Messy Mexican. However if the pre made pizza is not to your requirement you are able to create your own. Firstly you can chose from the base, the sauce, the cheese and finally the toppings. The toppings range from protein, veggies and rogue, an extensive selection of toppings are available.


My choice…


I decide to make my own pizza. Of course I selected the gluten free pizza base along with, tomato sauce, mozzarella cheese, bacon, buffalo chicken (spicy), red onion and finally red peppers.


When the pizza arrived I could not believe the size of it, normally gluten free pizza are a lot smaller in size but this was the same size as my friends who opted for the sourdough base. The pizza was thin and crispy exactly to my liking and the toppings were also very enjoyable.  All of the flavours of the toppings worked well together and I could not have been any happier with my choice and to top things off I manage to finish it all. (With great difficulty as it was HUGE!)




Would I recommend?


I would highly recommend Pizza Punks as an option for gluten free diners who fancy a meal that is quick, easy and made to a good standard, served by friendly staff.
