Collingwood Restaurants

As a multi-faceted venue, we provide a rich culinary showcase of Australian food and drink producers via our retail store, bar, eatery and in-house production facilities. We have incorporated an onsite micro-brewery, distillery, cured meats and cheese making rooms, coffee roasters. We also operate our own 40 acre site that produces grapes for wine, with future plan to grow fruit, vegetables, grain, hops and livestock for in-house food and drink products.

The education side will be brought to life via an immersive program of events and classes to learn how produce is made, why they are made in that way and how to take your new skills and use them at home. Many of these events will be held in collaboration with our industry peers to give you the best knowledge and experience, so you can then share the traditions with friends and family.

Our eatery reflects our passion for modern food created using traditional and contemporary techniques, dishes that highlight the integrity of each ingredient, our ability to create so many elements in-house and our industry relationships with producers and makers.

In 1982, Mamma Vittoria combined her love for cooking and meeting people by opening a typically Italian, family restaurant in Smith Street, Fitzroy, Mamma Vittoria’s.

Since that first day she has been lovingly serving her customers nothing but the very best. Always family owned and operated, many of her family have spent their time working in the restaurant. Today, one of her sons, Riccardo, has the run of the kitchen, cooking up new tasty dishes to complement her traditional, Italian inspired, Mamma Vittoria favourites.

The food is both fabulous and very reasonably priced, while the place's charm and cosiness is warm and welcoming. Owner/Chef Alan who have both worked in big name restaurants and hotels in both Australia and Singapore, opened his little baby about 10 years ago - and his authentic Singaporean cuisine (some with a contemporary Melbourne twist) has had people coming back again and again - whether to eat in or take away - ever since.
