Papa John's

This review is based solely on Papa Johns’ published allergen information. It reflects what the chain reports about the presence or possible cross-contact of the 14 major allergens. Please check Papa Johns’ official allergen guide directly, as ingredients and preparation practices may change. Papa Johns states throughout its guide that cross-contact is unavoidable in stores. The document notes that although hygiene procedures exist, they “cannot guarantee” prevention of cross contamination, and that pizzas, sides and desserts all pass through shared preparation and cooking equipment. Milk and wheat are highlighted as widely handled in stores, and the guide stresses that even pizzas without cheese or wheat-free bases may still contain traces of these allergens. The chain confirms that nuts and peanuts are not used in pizzas but do appear in certain desserts and factory environments, and therefore cross-contact for these allergens is also possible. Overall, customers should treat all allergens present anywhere in the store as potential risks due to shared preparation areas. The chain’s allergen guide notes that cross-contact may occur in shared preparation areas. Menu variability note: Allergen information may differ by region or location, so customers should verify details for their specific restaurant. Information reviewed as of: November 2025.
