It takes a while (about 20 mins) to get your pizza so I’d recommend using their site to order ahead. We ordered at the window cuz it was our first time. They do have a 10” gluten free crust and vegan cheese so if you’re dairy and gluten free like me, you can get pizza here. My husband got his meat lovers and he liked it. The GF crust was one of the better ones ive had and tasted pretty good. They have a lot of toppings and options to customize your pizza the way you want it. Runs a little more expensive - we paid $30 for two small pizzas. But it’s kind of like a mellow mushroom and the only place we could find GF/DF options in the OBX.

Despite being listed as celiac-friendly, this place is absolutely not safe for people with celiac disease. When I asked for a glove change, the staff told me there was “no point” due to cross-contamination on the counters and made no effort to accommodate. There is no dedicated appliance (toaster/panini press), and their attitude toward basic safety measures was dismissive at best. It’s very clear they do not understand or respect the precautions necessary for someone with celiac. Disappointed and would not recommend for anyone needing a medically gluten-free meal. Very disappointing, it was my favorite before becoming diagnosed.

Vegan and gluten free friendly (with vegan cheese and THREE gluten free vegan crust options to choose from), and Scott went so far above and beyond for us. He was especially kind to our eight year old son, Isaiah. It's always so refreshing when people in the restaurant business are delighted by the presence of children. My husband said the regular crust is one of the best he's ever had. Overall, it was a wonderful experience, and we highly recommend Village Pizza in Nags Head, OBX.
