Once the words 'cheap' and 'pizza' were always synonymous with the old school pizza chains like pizza hut.. and more often than not were closer in taste and texture to cardboard than a yummy Italian delight.

Happily, Melbourne is begun a revolution with the emergence of gourmet pizzas, but without a typical gourmet pricetag. Perhaps it's the Italian influence in our heritage, perhaps it's because we are well known as a culinary icon, perhaps its because we just love a good bargain meal.

Because there are just so many to choose from, I have just one idea for the cheapest and most interesting pizza in Melbourne:



Located on the corner of Chapel and High St, Windsor, its the sister of the other infamous pizza restaurant, Bimbo Deluxe on Brunswick St Fitzroy. These guys have been happily producing the tastiest and most unusual pizza toppings for all budget concious students, backpackers, and those who just love a bargain. The best part? $4 pizzas between 12-4pm weekdays, Mon-Thurs 7-11pm; Fri and Sat 7-9pm, Sunday all day until 11pm. Unusual concoctions include prawn pizza, potato and green pea curry pizza (seriously), and my fave, caesar salad pizza (yes indeed, it is a pizza with a caesar salad on top, and its delicious!).

Don't let the dim lighting and dark interior stop you – and Bimbos Deluxe welcomes everyone here to enjoy a good pizza, nice beer and happy conversation.

Just one tip, get there early, and expect to have to hunt a table down –they are in short supply, particularly if you are a large group!
