Profile
Discover Pizza Madre, Sydney’s cozy vegetarian pizzeria that’s perfecting the art of simple, exceptional pizza-making. Brought to you by the team behind the beloved Two Chaps, this intimate restaurant focuses on a handful of dishes executed to absolute perfection.
Why Pizza Madre Masters Sydney’s Pizza Scene
Located in Marrickville, Pizza Madre operates with the same culinary philosophy as its sister establishment Two Chaps: serve only a few dishes, but make them absolutely perfect. The restaurant even borrows Two Chaps’ legendary four-year-old sourdough starter, which gives their crusts a distinctive tart bite and earthiness.
The Artisanal Pizza Experience
Step into a cozy space where traditional Italian pizza-making meets modern Australian ingredients and techniques. The focus on quality over quantity creates an atmosphere where every pizza represents the culmination of years of refinement and dedication to craft.
Sourdough Pizza Perfection
The restaurant’s use of a four-year-old sourdough starter combined with Australian-grown flours creates crusts with signature tart bite and earthy complexity. The vegetarian menu defaults to dairy cheese but offers house-made vegan mozzarella crafted from soy or cashew-based yogurt that delivers rich, gooey satisfaction.

Only critiques were the salad was a bit too marinated, and could’ve used a bit less pickled onions, and the pizza bases were a bit too thin for our liking, however that is personal preference!
Overall would definitely recommend if you want to try interesting veg pizza with a great ambience.
We had only vegans and vegetarians in our group and we ordered pizza as well as their snack with pumpkins and hummus that came with a sourdough Puccia (puffed bread). That snack was one of the best dishes I’ve ever eaten. The pizza was also lip-smacking!
I ate my leftover pizza cold the next morning, and it was just as delicious if not better!
Service was good. Environment was nice 😊
Personally it has unique food pairing that i never thought would work but it does.
I thoroughly enjoyed their special cocktail of the month. 🍹
