Our gorgeous interior brings a taste of Italy to the heart of Essendon. Each of our rooms reflects a unique vibe, from our southern Italian trattoria to our decadent and intimate upstairs restaurant.And the food. We believe good food doesn’t have to be complicated. It just needs to be made fresh, with quality ingredients, and a little love. Come on in and see what all the fuss is about.

Here at Ollie’s, our style of pizza doesn't fit into any classification. It’s a bit of New York and a bit Neapolitan. A thin and crispy base with a delicious chewy crust, topped with the freshest produce and most delicious flavour combinations. The dough is proved for a day and a half, then stretched in the traditional way by hand – and when it’s time for cookin’ – we fire it up super freakin’ hot and super freakin’ fast!Ollie’s Pizza is created in homage to all the great Pizzaiolos who are out there “making a crust”, and 'cause when it's this nice, who doesn’t love a slice! We're located on Sydney Rd, Brunswick next to Stay Gold - a cornerstone of Melbourne live music. Ollie's is a great place for an after-work or pre-evening cocktail or a beer. And on the weekends, the lights go down and the music turns up! We'll see you at the bar.
