Visit websiteAbout Rifos - Cafe | Restaurant | Pizzeria
Maylands locals pack this bustling trattoria for generous Italian comfort and an easygoing, walk-in energy. Tables fill fast with bowls of spicy chilli mussels, crisp arancini, and frutti di mare pizza hot from the oven. The kitchen readily adapts most dishes for coeliac diners without cutting corners on texture or taste. Mornings start on smooth espresso and rich hollandaise, while evening crowds lean into cold beers and refreshing basil-lemon cocktails. Dinner often wraps with a chocolate-strawberry calzone shared straight across the table.
- Chilli Mussels: Bowls arrive with a punchy kick and rich sauce that regulars prioritize ordering.
- Coeliac-Safe Menu Range: The kitchen prepares most dishes gluten-free, including pizza bases that coeliac diners can trust.
- All-Day Italian Hub: Shifts seamlessly from morning espresso and breakfast into late-evening pizzas, steaks, and cocktails.
- Lively Group Dining: Large tables come together quickly for walk-ins catching up over shareable mains and dessert calzones.
