About La Coppola

Redfern’s intimate pizza den pairs wood-fired Sicilian pies and blistered crusts with generous hospitality and spontaneous accordion tunes. Long communal tables fill fast with friends sharing garlic prawns and BYO bottles, while the kitchen stretches its own gluten-free bases alongside classic bianco and rosso options. When the room gets lively, owner Stefano steps out to serenade the dining room or talk through the nightly specials. Just save room for a slice of wood-fired basque cheesecake before the night winds down.

  • Scratch Gluten-Free Bases: House-made bases and oven-baked garlic bread baked fresh on site accommodate gluten-sensitive diners without sacrificing blistered, chewy texture.
  • Accordion Serenades: Owner Stefano chats table to table and often caps busy dinner services by playing Italian songs on his piano accordion.
  • Cross-Street Bar Drop: Patrons across the road at The Noble Hops can order specialty pies delivered straight to their pub tables.

Why Diners Choose La Coppola

Discover why locals and visitors choose La Coppola for authentic wood-fired pizza and vibrant Sicilian hospitality.

  • Authentic Wood-Fired Sicilian Crusts

    Pizzas come with blistered crusts cooked in the wood-fired oven alongside classic starters like sizzling garlic prawns and fresh toppings.

    The dough was super crispy and cook to perfection and all the ingredients were fresh !

  • House-Crafted Gluten-Free Bases

    Unlike standard outsourced crusts, gluten-free bases and accompanying breads are freshly prepared in-house and baked directly in the pizza oven.

    The best gluten free pizza I’ve ever had! I’ve been GF for 25 years so I’ve tried a lot of bad and average pizza bases. Not here they are real, fresh and made on site.

    We visited last night and celebrated a double birthday with our close friends and wow 🤩 this hole-in-the-wall family-run pizza joint is just incredible on all levels.

  • Shared Tables and Sing-Alongs

    A lively communal table encourages dining companions and neighboring patrons to share recommendations and connect over dinner.

    The owner is awesome, spent time helping us pick what pizzas to order, chatting about where we all lived etc. The pizzas where 10/10, atmosphere was awesome, owner brought out the piano accordion and played for us then we all had a sing along.

  • Live Accordion Performances by Stefano

    Owner Stefano personally checks in on tables, shares pizza stories, and entertains the dining room by performing Italian classics on the accordion.

    We were glad to have met the owner, Stefano, and learn about his history in pizza. If you're lucky enough, he'll even put on a piano accordion show!

  • Scopello Pizza

    We had the Mt Etna and Scopello. Both has a really good spicy kick. The crust was perfect, pillowy with smokey wood-fired flavours.

  • Pippo Pizza

    Then after having a slice of the Pippo…damn, sensational, spicy salami with pecorino and a garlic honey drizzle which cut through the spice of the salami just worked so well.

  • Zafferia Pizza

    The woodfire pizza was fantastic - we had the Zafferia (Bianca base) which was very flavourful from the abundance of garlic and the Scopello (red base) which was just as good.
