About Encore Pizza Cranbourne

Old-school takeaway done right—generously topped pies with crispy bases and a signature spice-laced sauce that keeps locals dialling back. Operating in the same South Gippsland Highway strip since the 1990s, this family outfit still handles the neighborhood dinner run with genuine warmth and rare attention to dietary requests. The kitchen also turns out glazed BBQ ribs and tender lamb alongside classic combinations like the Encore special with anchovies. Note that delivery orders remain cash-only.

  • Spiced Pizza Sauce: Signature tomato base blended with a kick of spices across generous toppings and crisp crusts.
  • BBQ Ribs & Meats: Tender barbecue glazed ribs and savoury lamb supplement traditional pizza menus.
  • Event & Party Catering: Attentive coordination for party orders and functions with careful handling of allergy requests.

Beyond the menu

Personal gestures and attentive care that turn everyday pizza runs into memorable neighborhood hospitality

  • Playing Dancing Music over the Shop Speakers

    When a young child was dancing while looking into the shop window, the owner broadcast her song over the shop speakers to play it louder than her phone.

  • Trust-Based Pay Later Courtesy

    When a customer forgot her purse for a takeaway order, the owner trusted her completely and insisted she could just pay another time rather than making the 20-minute drive home.

  • Proactive Allergy and Dietary Ingredient Checks

    For event and family orders, staff proactively verify hidden allergens—such as alerting dairy-sensitive patrons that dough bases contain traces of milk when cheese is omitted.

  • Instant Voice Recognition for Longtime Callers

    Regular callers are recognized immediately by voice over the phone and greeted with familiar, friendly hospitality.

Before you head over

Practical advice on delivery payments, dietary ordering, and event catering

  • Keep Cash Ready for Deliveries

    Ensure you have physical currency on hand when opting for home delivery, as drivers accept cash only, though they reliably carry change.

  • Clarify Base Ingredients for Allergies

    When catering for dairy restrictions or food intolerances, inform the counter team beforehand—staff proactively verify base ingredients such as milk in the dough.

  • Call Ahead for Large Group Catering

    Take advantage of party pre-ordering by calling ahead to coordinate custom dietary requirements and scheduled drop-offs for large pizza orders.
