About Pizza Fritta 180

Golden, puffed-to-order Neapolitan street food takes centre stage at this buzzing Crown Street joint. Tables fill fast with groups splitting carafes of wine, crisp arancini, and towering pockets of pizza fritta stuffed with molten cheese and savoury fillings like friarielli or nduja. Diners often kick things off with mussels served beneath a dome of fried pizza dough, tearing off pieces to mop up the spicy sauce.

  • Authentic Pizza Fritta: Folded dough deep-fried until puffed and golden, stuffed with molten cheese and savoury fillings like friarielli or nduja.
  • Mussels in Fried Dough: Antipasto featuring saucy mussels baked under a blanket of fried dough made for dipping.
  • Group Dining & Spritzes: Lively outdoor tables on Crown Street set up for sharing oversized plates, arancini, and spritzes.

  • Fried Dough-Covered Mussels

    Serves savory shellfish starters sealed under or plated inside hot, crisp fried pizza dough that doubles as dipping bread.

    The antipasti mussels dish was a delicious surprise. It’s served with a fried bread covering it.

  • Theatrical Presentation at the Table

    Cutting into the inflated golden crust deflates the dough to reveal steaming melted cheese and aromatic fillings.

    When you cut into it, it deflates and you are mesmerised by the theatre and delicious fillings.

Beyond the menu

Memorable hospitality touches and unexpected presentation details at Pizza Fritta 180.

  • Full Nutella Jar Dessert Presentation

    For desserts like the Nutella bombolini, guests are presented with a whole jar of Nutella to spoon alongside their warm pastries.

  • Fried Pizza Dough Mussel Bread Bowl

    Instead of a plain ceramic plate, mussels are baked under and enclosed in fresh fried pizza dough that functions as a tearable dipping bread.

  • Theatrical Puffed Crust Table Presentation

    Large-format fried pizzas are served fully inflated and domed, creating a theatrical table moment where cutting into the crust deflates it to release steaming aromas.

  • Chef-Arranged Group Dining Progression

    For group gatherings and birthday celebrations, the kitchen chef personally customizes and orchestrates the meal progression for the table.

Before you head over

Practical advice on reservations, generous portion sizes, and enjoying your meal

  • Reserve Ahead for Busy Nights

    Evenings and Saturdays fill up fast, so booking ahead is recommended; walk-ins can expect brief lines or primarily outdoor seating along Crown Street.

  • Pace Your Portions

    The fried dough pockets and starters like arancini and dough-topped mussels are exceptionally hearty—order conservatively or come ready to share.

  • Fold Your Slices

    When enjoying classic Neapolitan pizza alongside fried specialties, fold your slice inward to keep the soft, saucy center intact without dripping.
