Tucked down a laneway, housed in an industrial building, you'll find our quirky pizzeria. Our vibe is super casual and we love to see our customers sharing pizzas, beers and enjoying life. Our space is ideal for large groups, but also for families and couples. Were all about the pizza! Pizza Napoletana is authentic pizza from Naples, and we make it according to the generations-old technique....with just a little of our own twists here and there. Our dough is made in-house and fermented for a minimum of 24hrs to create a tasty and light base - minimal yeast so no bloating here. Then its hand-stretched, topped with quality ingredients imported from Italy AND sourced locally, and cooked at a fiery 400 degrees.We do other stuff as well - starters, sharers, salads, homemade desserts, and gelato. Plus cocktails, imported and locally brewed beers, and some carefully selected wines from independent wineries.

My favourite place to eat on the Coast! Not only are the pizzas amazing, but the atmosphere is great as soon as you walk in. You can tell after the first bite the quality of ingredients are of high a standard. The service is incredible, everyone is always so welcoming and you never wait long for your pizzas or drinks. A credit to the whole team at Good Slice ⭐️

Dinner and drinks in the Whiskey Bar as summer storms blow past. Incredible. Our girls social club started 4 years ago at Ricks, and always return to our first meeting point. Whether it's just drinks with friends or a meal, Ricks never disappoints.
