Pizza Head, located on South Grand in the city’s first Green Dining District, offers New York Style pizza by the slice or by the whole pie. Pizza Head is unique to St. Louis, not only for its authentic, perfect crust, but for previous owner Scott Sandler’s decision to serve vegetarian-only toppings on his slices. New owners, Dylan Dodson and Sam Driemeier, live in the neighborhood and have been longtime patrons of Pizza Head. They have changed little, but the married couple has added some new sauces, vegetarian/vegan salad options, composting, and continues to be heavily involved in making their community more socially sustainable.  Pizza Head has one of the largest bag of bags on record in the GDA program and goes above in beyond in being zero waste, donating ice packs and recycling packaging materials like kodiakotton back with businesses that can reuse it like North Face.

Pizza Head is all vegetarian with vegan options. The only thing on the menu that is not vegan is the mozzarella made from dairy. The cashew cheese is an employee favorite and has switched many dairy lovers over to the popular vegan cheese. Pizza Head combats food waste by donating incorrect pizzas and slices not purchased to local food shares. Any food waste that cannot be donated, as well as their compostable packaging products, are composted.  Pizza Head always has new innovative pizza collaborations with different sustainable partners like Terror Taco and Bombay Food Junkies. They even have vegan ice-cream from Bombay Food Junkies on the menu!

Pizza Head offers the MO 314 Pizza every Monday with 50% of the proceeds going to a local charity organization.  You can purchase a slice to donate to ST. Patrick Center on their website or at the front door. Slices are rounded up to the nearest pizza (8 slices to a pizza) and are donated weekly to St. Patrick Center. The month of October is National Pizza Month and Pizza Head will match each slice donated with two slices!  Pizza Head also partners with ImpactLife a mobile blood drive. Donors receive two free slices of pizza. Support Pizza Head and support your local community.

Pizza boxes are always recyclable, as long as they are not wet – a little grease and cheese stuck to the box is still fine for recycling! When dining on their patio remember to bring all of your compostable service ware back to the window where they will collect and compost it! Pizza Head serves local brews, kombucha from Confluence Kombucha, and canned water from Open Water. Stop by for a slice and a local beer next time you find yourself walking down one of St. Louis’s most distinct strips! Check their website for store hours for pickup at their storefront window.
