A new take on a classic
Pan Pizza Papa Johns
EDMONTON, Alberta, Aug. 17, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Pan Pizza has arrived at Papa Johns Canada.
Beginning today, Papa Johns Canada is introducing its highly anticipated Pan Pizza. A new take on a classic, Papa Johns’ Pan Pizza delivers crispy, caramelized edges, a pillowy, airy centre and the unmistakable flavours that make it distinctly Papa Johns.
“Consumers shouldn’t have to settle for ‘good enough’,” said Shivram Vaideeswaran, Senior Vice President of Brand Marketing at Papa Johns. “We didn’t bring Pan Pizza back to simply participate in the category; we rebuilt it from the pan up to raise the standard. From the golden, crispy edges to the soft, airy centre and bold, indulgent flavours in every bite, every detail was intentional. This isn’t just another launch, it’s our statement that great pizza matters, and our new Pan Pizza proves it from the very first bite.”
With Parmesan and Romano cheeses and Papa Johns Special Garlic Sauce baked directly into the bottom of the crust and finished with a sprinkle of Italian seasoning, Papa Johns’ Pan Pizza delivers a signature golden finish and crispy crunch.
“There’s something about pan pizza that people get excited about,” said Scott Lewis, General Manager, International Markets – Canada, at Papa Johns. “We’re proud to add Pan Pizza to our menu and can’t wait for Canadians to try our take on this classic.”
To celebrate the launch, guests can enjoy a medium 1-topping Pan Pizza for $16.99 for a limited time through October 4, 2026.
Guests can order Pan Pizza at PapaJohns.ca, through the Papa Johns app, or at participating restaurants.
