Crown Pizza & Ribs

This is bog standard pizza, with all the usual toppings. Well, usually. The last time I ordered from there, we didn’t get any toppings on my pizza, which I discovered when I got home and found a base with a drizzle of bbq sauce on it. My complaint was met with disinterest. That’s ok guys, plenty of other pizza shops in the village…

First gluten free pizza place I found in Melbourne, long before the trend to offer a gluten free option came along. When my coeliac family discovered this, I think they ate pizza so often they got sick of it.
I think as pizza places go, it’s fairly standard, but it gets so many bonus points for being the first one I found that meant I could get a takeaway pizza. The bases are great, too, really delicious even for a non-​gluten free eater. They also have dairy free cheese available, to keep the other group of people who have to miss out on pizza just as happy.
It’s a family owned and run business, with cousins and sisters and aunts etc. coming in on their days off to keep the place running. It’s no wonder it’s such a cheerful environment.
