About Primo

Primo turns out thin-crust Italian pizzas and handmade pasta in Northcote without cutting corners on gluten-free safety. High Street regulars lean into inventive pies like the White Boy—layered with caramelized onion, gorgonzola, and fior di latte—while diners managing coeliac disease get genuine peace of mind from accredited prep. Tables inside keep acoustic levels low enough for easy conversation, or you can escape out back to the Candy Street terrace on quiet summer evenings.

  • Coeliac-Safe Dining: Rigorous accredited preparation across gluten-free pizza doughs and pasta takes the anxiety out of dining with coeliac disease.
  • Inventive Toppings: The menu ranges from classic margheritas to daring creations like the White Boy, Louie, and fig with prosciutto.
  • Quiet Side Terrace: Outdoor tables sit tucked around the corner on peaceful Candy Street away from High Street traffic.

  • Quiet Candy Street Terrace Seating

    Outdoor dining is set apart on Candy Street rather than the busy main strip, offering diners a peaceful alfresco experience free from excessive traffic noise.

    we sat outside on what I think they call the terrace on Candy street, which was nice and not too much noise from High street.

    Noise levels were also very comfortable - had no trouble having a conversation without raising our voices.
