Papa John's has announced the launch of 'Papa Bowls,' an all-new menu category that transfers the brand's fan-favorite pizzas into a bowl-based format. In addition, the Papa Bowls will help the brand deliver on its 'BETTER INGREDIENTS. BETTER PIZZA' initiative.
The new bowls offer customers a unique pizza slice alternative that takes all Papa John's classic toppings, including cheese, meats, veggies, and sauces, and bakes them into a crust-free bowl. Currently, the brand is offering three bowl options: Chicken Alfredo, Garden Veggie, and Italian Meats Trio.
“Our signature crust continues to be a beloved favorite, but we know that sometimes customers crave something different. We want them to know we are committed to delivering on all of those cravings through our menu," said Scott Rodriguez, Papa John's Senior Vice President of Menu Strategy and Product Innovation.
