Mountain Mike's Pizza: Thin Crust Pepperoni or Bust

Fresh dough and real mozzarella can't save the seed-oil default at this chain.

July 25, 2026 About Mountain Mike's Pizza

Fresh dough won't cancel the industrial oil bath most slices swim in.

The Take

Mountain Mike's Pizza serves fresh in-house dough and 100% whole milk mozzarella but still lands as mostly seed-oil slop like every other chain. Slop Score 68.

The signature crispy curly pepperoni pops, yet default prep and sauces lean ultra-processed. Thin crust with extra cheese and veggies is the only move that avoids the worst of it.

The Verdict

Ask for an olive oil base on thin crust and load fresh veggies plus whole-milk cheese. That is the only way to dodge the industrial default.

Order the thin crust pepperoni or create-your-own with extra cheese and veggies, no extra sauce. Slop Score 68.
