Arthur Premetis was a true pioneer of pizza in Australia, opening the first Arthur’s Pizza in Charing Cross in 1970. With a vision to go beyond the traditional cheese and tomato base, Arthur introduced new flavours and fresh ingredients that helped redefine what pizza could be. Known for his innovation, he was one of the first to bring conveyor-belt ovens to Australia, ensuring consistency and quality in every slice. His passion and determination built a legacy that continues to thrive more than 50 years later.

ARTHUR’S PIZZA™ was first established in Charing Cross back in 1970. Even in those days Arthur set the standard as far as pizza goes, introducing Sydneysiders to a new style of pizza with alternative ingredients such as seafood, mushroom, pepperoni and other exciting ingredients. Until then only cheese, tomato and olives were usually served.

Arthur is somewhat of a pioneer when it comes to pizza. He claims to be one of the first to introduce pizza to Australia and use the conveyor belt type oven. Arthur is able to perfect the authentic Italian pizza flavour using this type of equipment found in all of his restaurants, maintaining quality, consistency, and great value for money, as you would expect from all of ARTHUR’S PIZZA™ restaurants.

In 1974, ARTHUR’S PIZZA™ Oxford St Paddington was established. In 1989, Arthur further expanded ARTHUR’S PIZZA™ to Randwick, one of Sydney’s greater restaurant hubs maintaining the tradition and continuing the success of the original ARTHUR’S PIZZA™.
