About 11 Inch Pizza

Tucked down a central laneway, this bustling joint serves up blistering wood-fired thin-crust pizza and handmade pasta against a backdrop of street art. Regulars swear by the balance—crispy bases loaded with toppings, velvety gnocchi tossed in rich gorgonzola cream, and slow-cooked beef ragu served in serious portions. The compact room fills up fast, but footpath tables let you dig into wood-fired gluten-free crusts and vegan pies while taking in the alleyway buzz.

  • Wood-Fired Crusts & Scratch Pasta: Blistered thin crusts baked in traditional wood-fired ovens, with dedicated vegan pies and gluten-free bases alongside house-made gnocchi.
  • Iconic Laneway Setting: Footpath dining tucked directly into an alleyway surrounded by vibrant Melbourne street art and chill tunes.
