Book NowAbout Zeppa's Pizza
Sydenham regulars rely on Zeppa's for generous, old-school takeaway pizzas loaded onto puffy, well-baked crusts. During peak dinner hours, owner Sam commands the oven while a crew of ten keeps phone pickups running right to the minute. The kitchen skips sparse artisan toppings in favor of hearty traditional builds—like The Lot or meat lovers—paired with tubs of scratch-made chocolate mousse.
- High-capacity open kitchen: Owner Sam works the deck while a team of ten coordinates phone orders for reliable, to-the-minute evening pickup.
- Hearty traditional crusts: Generously topped traditional builds like The Lot and Mexicana come baked on soft, puffy dough rather than skimpy crusts.
- House-made chocolate mousse: The owners prepare their own chocolate mousse fresh on-site to round out takeaway pizza orders.

Boris Arapov Fluffy Crust and Balanced Fresh Ingredients
Dough is proofed and baked to achieve a soft, light texture that pairs cleanly with fresh comfort toppings.
The dough is light and fluffy and the topping is just right and fresh.
Clem Marion House-Made Specialty Chocolate Mousse
Dessert selections include house-made chocolate mousse prepared directly on site by the owners rather than commercial pre-packaged sweets.
The owners make it themselves and it's crazy good.
