About Justin Lane Geelong

Perched right off the Geelong waterfront, this buzzing Italian outpost solves big-group dining with hearty sourdough pizzas, house-rolled pastas, and sweeping coastal views. Tucked behind the lawn on Brougham Street, it trades stiff banquet formalities for an all-you-can-eat style Feed Me feast—rolling out sequential rounds of crisp pies, tender gnocchi with lamb ragu, and generous pasta platters until the table waves the white flag. Groups can split the tab by item without fuss, while mixed dietary crews get their own lane with a dedicated vegan menu featuring plant-based bolognese dusted in cashew parmesan. Settle into the sun-drenched courtyard or grab an indoor table as plates of thin-crust caprese and chilled spritzes make the rounds.

  • Communal Feed Me Feasts: Sequential rounds of pizzas and pastas served all-you-can-eat style for large parties, complete with leftover takeaway allowed.
  • Full Vegan Italian Menu: A separate, dedicated plant-based lineup dishing up rich pastas, vegan bolognese, and cashew parmesan.
  • Itemized Split Billing: Group dining made seamless with hassle-free itemized payment options for large tables.

  • Dedicated Plant-Based Italian Menu

    A comprehensive plant-based Italian menu serves dedicated alternatives like vegan Bolognese with rich sauces and cashew parmesan.

    The vegan options are great (just ask for the vegan menu). I tried to vegan Bolognese with cashew parmesan and it was so saucy and tasty.

    Generous shared portions across entrees, pizzas, and mains mean parties dine comfortably with takeaway containers welcomed for leftovers.

    We ended up doing two rounds and were allowed to take our leftovers home, which was a great bonus.
