A Vegan's Review of Mad Pizza e Bar, Newtown

Mad Pizza E Bar Newtown is a pizza, pasta and wine bar chain in the vegan hub of King Street. Other locations can be found at Bondi, Darlinghurst, Surry Hills and Potts Point. The Newtown Bar is an easy meeting place to go with friends for dinner and a few drinks. They play funky music and know their menus.

Their unique, healthy thin pizza base makes them stand out amongst other pizza joints in Australia. A gluten free base is available as well as a variety of vegan and vego options. Going vegan doesn't mean missing out on cheese - MPeB uses Notzarella cheese by request.

The pizza menu includes four vegan pizza options:

DEMARIO roast pumpkin slices, red onion, mint & pine nuts with chilli & caramelised balsamic

FUNGHI sliced field mushrooms on a tomato base with rosemary, rocket leaves and white truffle oil

QUATTRO spinach, pine nuts, chilli & truffle oil with Notzarella cheese

QUEEN MARGARITA Notzarella cheese, tomato sauce, basil leaves and black lava sea salt

This is the kind of pizza place to go to when you're after a light pizza that won't leave you with that heavy feeling. The thin base and minimal toppings make it easy enough to polish off a whole pizza to yourself.

When I go to MPeB I opt for the Vegan Quattro Pizza. It's the most flavoursome of them all, topped with truffle oil, Notzarella cheese, pine nuts and spinach. Along with a glass of the Radio Boka Tempranillo.

Funghi Pizza (vegan), $23.50

Quattro Pizza (vegan), $21.50
