Bare Knuckle Pizza is a casual pizzeria in downtown Oakland known for its strong vegan offerings, including a dedicated vegan menu featuring vegan cheeses and meats from local provider Butcher's Son. The pizzas are personal-sized with gluten-free crust options and focus mainly on pizza rather than diverse menu items. While the venue is mostly takeout with limited seating and a lively atmosphere, the quality of vegan pizzas is frequently praised as some of the best in the Bay Area.
