18.01.2022 Hello Ritas fam! Thank you for your patience whilst we take in the most recent information around the COVID-19 situation. Weve taken the last couple of days as a much needed breather to let it all sink in. Inline with government guidelines, from tomorrow onwards we will be take-away only with reduced hours (check out our bio). Give us a call on 9419-8233 and place your order as you normally would. We have a new simplified menu of items that travel well from Ritas to home, ...and all pastas are now $19 with your choice of noodle and a garlic bread on the house Delivery and pick-up will be available as always from our separate takeaway shop Little Ritas. If you arent familiar, this is the same pizza you know and love, just a few doors down the road pasta will be available for delivery Wednesday-Sunday from 5-9PM. Our hearts are full with the support of our loyal community in Abbotsford and afar while we navigate these very strange times! We would love your input and feedback on how we can make your Ritas-at-home experience even better, slide into our DMs and have a chat Ritas

17.01.2022 Big & Little Ritas is taking a brief break while we gear up for lockdown 2.5. Well be closed today and tomorrow, reopening Thursday fresh and ready to sling some salty slices your way Stay safe, stay home, be kind. Ritas

17.01.2022 First of all from all of us here at Ritas we would like to say a huge thank you to everyone who has come by over the last week. It is humbling to know our community of pizza lovers trust us to deliver their #saltyslice in safe hands. It should go without saying that we have implemented many of the same measures as other businesses on top of our existing stringent standards. Regular sanitisation, increased hand washing, and an encouragement of contactless payments. We have al...so (regrettably) introduced a single-use paper menu. To help us keep down waste we encourage you to find our menu online and refuse a physical menu altogether. You can even check-out our visual menu on Mr Yum (link in bio through Link Tree). For this weekend it will be more-or-less business as usual. You are welcome to dine-in, order over the phone, and as always delivery is available on UberEats and Deliveroo. While the safety of our staff and the wider community are our number 1 priority, we are also committed to doing everything we can to maintain work for our large casual workforce here at Ritas. Come Monday we will be introducing a simplified menu and dine-in service. Walk-in, order and pay at the bar, and sit where you please. This is to reduce contact points and encourage our customers to social distance as they see fit, while still maintaining a number of shifts for our staff. Delivery and take-away will still be available including PASTA on UberEats (YESSSSSS!!!!!). We hope you all understand this interruption to regular programming and welcome any feedback to make things as easy and safe for you! Be safe, be kind Ritas @ Ritas Abbotsford

16.01.2022 THIS WEDNESDAY $5 from the sale of every pizza in store at Ritas Abbotsford will go directly to the Red Cross Australia Disaster Relief and Recovery fund. These unprecedented fires are continuing to destroy natural habitats, wildlife, sacred lands, communities, homes, and human lives. There are several ways to donate and provide assistance, and EVERY little bit counts.... THE RED CROSS are requesting cash donations so they can allocate resources to exactly where they are needed. You can donate here: https://www.redcross.org.au//disaster-relief-and-recovery- FOOD BANK also prefer cash donations, but the organisation is also accepting good-quality tinned food (with ring pull), UHT milk, and items that are easy to "grab and go" like muesli bars, cereals, biscuits and pantry staples. Foodbank also accepts pet food and personal hygiene products. You can find more details including their drop-off location here: https://www.foodbank.org.au//dona/donate-food-individual/ AIR BNB are helping connect those who require emergency accomodation with those who have space in their homes. To offer accomodation click the link below and scroll to the bottom of the page: https://www.airbnb.com.au//disaster-re/victoriabushfires20 BE WARY of how you donate! There have been instances of fraudulent GoFundMe pages by individuals looking to capitalise on the loss of others.

16.01.2022 This week we will be raising funds for the Fire Relief Fund for First Nations Communities, organised by Yorta Yorta First Nations man Neil Morris. $1 from every pizza sold and all tips will be donated to this cause.
