Green Acre Pizza Bar
Green Acre Pizza Bar is a sustainable pizza bar that serves local craft beer, wine & cocktails, beside a long list of delicious, plentiful pizzas with an assortment of colourful vegetables.
Personally, we can’t go past the Heavens to Betsy complete with a garlic base, mozzarella, mushrooms, goats cheese, truffle oil & parsley. Another? The Pumpkin! Caramelise onion, pumpkin, sage, vegan feta, crushed pistachios & dairy free mozzarella.
Of course, the menu features the beloved Melbourne classics such as Ham & Pineapple, Capricciosa and chicken pizza.
Another thing to love about Green Acre Pizza Bar is the fact that it was born with the environment in mind. In an effort to minimise their carbon footprint, Green Acre Pizza made their packaging 100% biodegradable, and have a long line of beverages on tap to minimise bottle waste.
We couldn’t recommend these guys enough!
