About Bastoni Pizzeria

Set right off the Great Alpine Road, Bastoni Pizzeria turns out thin, crisp crusts that make Myrtleford an essential stop. The kitchen skips pasta to focus entirely on blistered pies, fresh antipasti, and classic desserts. Diners heading to Mount Buffalo often settle onto the covered timber deck under fairy lights and overhead heaters—a setup that welcomes dogs with fresh water bowls. The dough delivers genuine chew, paired with traditional toppings like savory boscaiola, shaved prosciutto, and calamari fritti. For sensitive eaters, the house-crafted gluten-free base skips the usual cornmeal fillers entirely, baking up firm beneath melted mozzarella and rich tomato sugo. Tables fill up quickly with regulars unwinding over cold local wine and folded nutella dessert crusts.

  • Pizza-Focused Menu: The kitchen focuses strictly on traditional pizza, antipasti, and desserts, deliberately omitting pasta dishes.
  • Heated Dog-Friendly Deck: A covered outdoor deck offers overhead heat lamps, fairy lights, and water bowls for four-legged companions.
  • Corn-Free Gluten-Free Crust: Pizzas can be ordered on a dedicated gluten-free base mixed without corn meal.

    Offering an in-house gluten-free base crafted without corn meal for a light, delicious pizza texture.

    this is definitely the best gluten free pizza I have ever eaten. No corn in the base as is usual for gluten free bases.

    Situated roughly three hours from Melbourne, providing an ideal, satisfying refuel on the drive to or from Mount Buffalo and alpine snowfields.

    Myrtleford is 3 hours from Melbourne so a perfect for a dinner stop.

  • Dog-Friendly Heated Deck

    An inviting sheltered deck fitted with heaters and water bowls so companion dogs can join outdoor evening dinners comfortably.

    sat outside on the undercover deck with our dog. The staff were so friendly and accommodating, popping the heater on for us and bringing some water for our dog.

    Undercover al fresco dining framed by warm fairy lights and heat lamps, creating a relaxed setting across mild or cooler nights.

    I’ve driven past this place so many times & it always looks beautiful with the fairy lights. We finally had dinner there & it was amazing.

  • Panfrito

    Panfrito is basically pizza dough fried and eaten by dipping in 3 sauces. It was good and enough as a share pack between 2-4 adults as a snack.
