Gracey's Pizza in St Albans

Absolutely the best pizza you can find in Hertfordshire, or anywhere!

Consistently excellent, authentic pizza, with friendly and helpful service.

Keep up the deliciousness please!

Delicious pizza, probably some of the best I have ever had. Deserves it's rating. Seats could be better 🤷‍♂️

Fantastic ! I ordered 3 pizza, there were so good that by the time I was home there was only 2 left … !!!

Amazing pizza! The sauce is so flavourful and the crust is so crisp. Perfect amount of cheese too! Absolutely loved them 😍(Only thing we didn't love was the garlic and dill dip which was watery and bland) Pre-ordered online for pick-up and the pizzas were ready when I got there as sadly live just a tiny bit too far for delivery. On another visit didn't get to order any pizza as all the slots were "sold out". Strange as they were still taking orders for people who'd come to dine in the restaurant. Seems to be more of a delivery place than a full restaurant that can only make pizzas if told in advance. Don't try walk in - you won't have any luck.

Amazing pizza the best I’ve tasted, the dough flavours crispy base is amazing, whole family said same. We shared 3x16, 1x12 between 6 ppl more in than enough. The hot honey is really nice to dip into. Loved it.

Tasty enough but New Haven very floppy

Unbelievable pizza, I can’t believe it’s only 10minutes away. I’m writing this review after several visits and it wasn’t a one time fluke. Consistency is also exceptional. How often can you find pizza that looks exactly like all the pictures people have taken, but then tastes better! Crust and tomato sauce are easily the best I’ve ever had. I really hope this place sticks around and grows. The only negative is that it’s small and parking can be annoying. But that’s to be expected for a small ‘newish’ business

Very good pizza, fantastic and staff, very helpful. Definitely recommend this place. I found the website a little tricky to navigate for the eat in option but this was resolved with an email and a reply. Looking forward to my next visit. I dropped 1 star from atmosphere only because the very busy Friday night takeaway comings and going’s was a little disruptive for those dining in. It’s great to see a place so busy though.

I genuinely love this place, staff and owners are nice and accommodating towards customers. The Pizza is definitely the best in St. Albans in my opinion, I’m Italian from Naples so quite picky on food and especially when it comes to pizza. Keep going guys!

I think I write the same thing every time! Just the best pizza

New Haven Pizza was good. The other pizzas are pretty standard.

Amazing pizzas always! Thanks guys!

Very good New Haven style pizzas. Cooked to perfection and tasted great.

Always order here! The pizzas are amazing and the customer service is very very good! Very welcoming and warming

Graceys pizza is amazing! Highly recommend

Great pizza, friendly and helpful staff. Lovely little place and a bonus that they are dog friendly! The new haven was the best pizza we have had :)

First time customer. Pizzas were delicious. Service was great. Also had tiramisu dessert which was amazing. Definitely recommend, i will be returning again.

Been wanting to try Gracey’s Pizza for ages and today I took the drive over. The pizza was absolutely delicious and look forward to trying different ones. Beats any of the Pizza places in Borehamwood

Great vibe, amazing food, best pizza in St albans!

Remains the best pizza I’ve ever had. Have made the trip to St Albans a number of times and was lucky enough to stumble across their pop up in Battersea. The owners are amazing people and the pizza is better than you’ll find anywhere. If you’re reading this you must go!

Cannot fault anything with this place (except perhaps the dips). I come all the way from Reading to get this pizza and it is exceptional everytime

Unbelievable pizza and a fair price, will be back!

Was served by Amelia who was very efficient and friendly - great customer service. Was recommended the smoky Ron and it did not disappoint 👌🏾 - AJ

I got takeout from this pizza place and it was very good. I had margherita with extra mozzarella and my boyfriend got smoky ron with hot honey.

Love this place, and the pizza is so light, crispy and amazing. I tried New Haven style (APizza). I will be back as soon as I can. If I had this place within walking distance I'll be eating there every day.

What was a hidden gem is no longer hidden - pizza that makes you forget the gram and taking photos but fills the stomach and the heart!

Excellent pizza establishment, a cut above most. Hidden gem in Chiswell Green.

World class I’ve eaten some fairly serious pizza, the usual heavy hitters from NYC and Naples, this is definitely up there or better in some respects. The pizza base, 0 flop and crispy but tastes magic. Tomato sauce, don’t start… depth of flavour is absolutely unreal and it just doesn’t get boring. Chilli sauce is somewhat unique in texture but it’s the best I’ve had so a must try. Defiantly worth the 2 hour drive 10/10 would smash again

This was our first time trying Graceys Pizza 🍕 it was a takeaway which we ordered online the Funghi with a Bianco base, Buratta and hot honey drizzle. It was ready on time, we didn’t have to wait, we got home and we didn’t even take a pic as we couldn’t wait to try it. It was absolutely delicious with a fabulous thin base and crispy crust. Just perfect definitely making another visit.

Just what I needed tonight! I wish I could give you 10 stars. Gostosa demais 😘

Amazing pizza we’ve been here couple times already. Highly recommend the smoky Ron and funghi!

Really enjoyed our dinner - amazing pizzas and friendly service

Pizza was great and ready for collection on time 👌🏻❤️

Consistently excellent service and food!

Superb pizza and friendly service. Highly recommended.

another great pizza order. Ready on time. Delicious crispy base. Never disappoints

Tonight was my first time ordering pizza, even though I live so close by in Bricket wood. The staff were so lovely and friendly. I took the pizzas home, my 13 year old son said it was the best pizza he had ever had and trust me he eats a lot of pizza 😂 I really enjoyed it too. We will definitely be ordering again. Highly recommend.

Easy to order. Only 10 mins late but gave us a free tiramisu. Will be buying oizza and tiramisu again!!

Graceys kept popping up on my Instagram with rave reviews, with insta foodies travelling far and wide to visit. Considering it’s only 10 mins away I had to try it. I expected it to be good but was taken aback by it being the best pizza my partner and I have ever had! Outstanding pizza, so fresh, so crispy, full of flavour.

Amazing pizza, definitely the best in St. Albans area - by far! If you ask me right up there also on the national level, I kid you not. Occasionally slightly overcooked, but that's a style, so if you're not a fan of (over-)charring, just mention it with your order. Otherwise an exceptional pizza: really tasty tomato sauce, perfect dough with lots of soft and fluffy aeration on the inside and that satisfying crisp crunch on the outside... and proper generous chunks of aubergine on the melanzana... You can almost taste the love and hard work that's put in this pizza by this adorable little establishment. Keep it up Gracey's!

Just love the pizza’s we order every time!

Never fails to provide the best pizza!

Amazing pizza and lovely people 🫶

Amazing pizza. Super light, crispy with a bit of chew

If you like New Haven Style Pizza made with love… this is your place! High quality ingredients and never any compromise on quality!! They also have a great wine list and the tiramisu is 5 Stars!!!!!!

an absolute gem ✨ I’ve been meaning to visit Gracey’s for a while but decided that our anniversary would be a good excuse to try them. I requested that the pizzas be heart shaped as a surprise for my partner and omg they were the cutest pizzas ever! They didn’t just look good they tasted amazing too. The staff were all so friendly and it was so cute that they all smiled from the kitchen when I was given the pizzas. Couldn’t recommend enough and will 100% be back 🍕❤️

First time having a Gracey’s pizza, now I know what all the fuss is about. Delicious!

Perfect New York-style pizza—thin, crispy crust, bold toppings, and great service. A must-visit!

The absolute best pizza around, you'd be mad not to try it

There’s a reason why Gracey’s is voted top 50 pizzas in the UK - they are wonderful. My favourite is Smokey Joe but the Funghi is super too. Get the dill sauce and baklava cheesecake - yum! Plus the team of people there are friendly and enthusiastic. Love this place thank you for opening in St. Albans!

By far the best pizza I’ve ever had well worth the 1hr 30min drive

great pizza - best i have ever had in fact and great service - we ate in! Thanks Gracey's

Banging New Haven style. So good, should have got a 16inch. Missus had a vegan ting, also superb and delicious. Atmosphere only gets 3 because they were so busy and a family next to us waited 1.5 hours for their food, while we picked up our takeaway immediately then got a seat almost immediately as someone left. Which felt wrong. But someone always gets the brunt of a busy shop while many have amazing experiences. Ours was great, I drove an hour this time, I’ll be driving more of them hours! Banging.

Why did it take me 5 years to find the best pizza in Hertfordshire / maybe even London….. the only place I tasted pizza this good was Naples

I was debating whether to go for my second pizza this week. Didn't dissapoint! We had a large pepperoni. Delicious! I really do think it's the best pizza I've had, and I've tried a few!

Pretty good. The tomato sauce was flavoursome and the pepperoni has a really lovely smoky flavour. The base was a bit too hard for me. 7/10.

Been meaning to come to Gracey’s for while and boy it didn’t disappoint! Fantastic pizza, fantastic service, so overall it was fantastic. If you love pizza you now know where to go.

Mouthwatering pizza, just the best! From the moment you step there you smell the fresh pizza in the oven and that's even the experience starts! The pizzas are just perfect. My absolute favourite is the New Haven one, although the simplest, it's by far the best! I got eat it every day! P.s. last time I ordered there was Terry’s Cafe Special Pizza. I absolutely loved that one too, please bring it back😄

How dare somewhere this perfect have slipped by me for so long. Gracey's do one thing and they do it incredibly well: pizzas. A menu of barely eight varieties are cooked to order, with the wait times stretching to two hours on occasion, but worth the wait. A large pizza feeds 2-3 people and the gluten free pizzas are the best I've ever tasted. I can't recommend them enough. Friendly staff and a welcoming atmosphere for this tiny jewel.

When I moved here from America 10 long, pizza-starved years ago, I was bereft of hope, thinking my life would be limited to the lovely, but unsatisfying variations on the theme of Italian-style sourdough personal-pan pies that pervade these lush green British lands. Discovering this pizza spot in the wilds of Hertfordshire has turned my frown upside down and restored joy to my life in a way I didn’t think possible. Thank you for doing it right, long may you reign (pizza) supreme. Sincerely, a Connecticut Yankee.

Amazing ! Best pizza I have had.

I don't eat pizza often but got recommended to try Gracey's. Wow, they certainly didn't disappoint. With a small but well put together menu they certainly know how to work those taste buds. I was made to feel very welcome, the staff were very knowledgeable and open to suggestions. (not that I had any) I'll definitely be back to try the other uniquely topped pizzas. Well done guys. Thanks

NOTE to Gracey’s: could you one day please open a second branch in SW London, maybe Sutton, London/Epsom, Surrey. I think it would do really well here. Review: I've been meaning to visit Gracey’s for a while, though it’s a couple of hours’ drive for us. It’s located in quite a charming little town. We’ve tried a few other spots in London, like Vincenzo’s and Patio Pizza, but we were very impressed with Gracey’s. We ordered one Margherita and one New Haven Apizza. The Margherita was flavourful, with a lovely richness in the tomato sauce. The basil was fresh, and the mozzarella was delicious. I’m tempted to try the buffalo mozzarella version next time I visit. The dough on this one was firmer than the New Haven but had that characteristic chew of a New York-style pizza. The New Haven Apizza was fantastic. We’ve been to Wooster Street in New Haven and have had Sally’s and Pepe’s a few times. Gracey’s version was remarkably similar to what we’ve experienced there. The pizza was not only fresh but had an amazing char, just like a proper New Haven pizza. The dough was crispy and thin. It would be great to see a few more New Haven items make their way onto the menu here. We said hello to Gracey herself at the end and she was very friendly and happy to chat. We’ll definitely be back. Worth the journey!

Honestly can't fault Gracey's. I ordered a collection and it's now a firm favourite, I would likely say that Gracey's make the best pizza I've ever had. We ordered the spinach and courgette special and a 16" cheese pizza. Delicious and quick, thank you!

Wow Gracey’s, just wow! The hype is insane but the pies live up to up to it!! Incredible dough, sauce and toppings that are clearly made with high end ingredients! The New Haven is a must have! Proper, legit “Abeets” that I don’t have the superlatives for 🔥🔥🔥

One of the best pizzas in greater London + I’ve tried them all and this ranks pretty high up as amazing pizza. I got the new haven and a margarita. Both spectacular but the new haven was the one to get again! Staff are super nice and accommodating. Update: I went again and it was just as good and if not better!

Amazing place with one of the best pizza which I ever tried in whole live... great stuff!

The pizza was absolutely amazing, very highly recommended. The team are friendly and fast, and have made me want to go back for more

Great pizza and super friendly staff!

Best pizza in Hertfordhshire..amazing dough and ingredients. Would recommend the smokey Ron. Cute sitting area outside. Very popular so recommend pre ordering/booking. Nice wines too.

American here, and one who used to live in NYC. This place is legit!!! Proper East Coast-style pies!

Great pizza, service, the works, call in advance to reserve your pizzas and I understand they only make a limited amount every day and sell it whilst the dough is at its prime

Just incredible! Don’t be afraid of the char 😉Really thankful it’s so far away otherwise I’d be a regular and then I’d be about double the size.

Quite pricey but authentic tasty pizza worth the hype.

Nice thin and super crispy sourdough pizza with great toppings.

Ordered the New Haven and the Terry special..both were amazing! Really nice pizza, far better than anything else I have ever tried!

Hands down the best pizza I’ve ever had!

Funky vibe , small, cute place.

A bomb place has to order a pizza in advance

Gracey's pizzas are exceptional! I placed an order for several pizzas for an event I was hosting on a Saturday afternoon. The service they provided was as good as they pizza they made! Highly recommend Gracey's and I look forward to visiting again soon.

Lovely local little place in St Albans with freshly made pizza, and additionally excellent service by the team

Closest to authentic Italian pizza you will find locally.

Best New Haven style pizza I’ve had since moving here. I’m originally from West Haven so it definitely made me feel like I was home!

Deliciously authentic pizza. Very close to pizzas I've had in Naples. Indoor and outdoor sitting areas. Friendly staff. The calzone was my favourite on the menu.

Will happily travel from Birmingham for this, love Graceys

Absolutely delicious pizza, easily the best in St. Albans. Really friendly service in an informal & relaxed setting.

Lovely place. Good food, good service, Lovely staff. Decent value as well 👌

Best pizza i have had in area. Absolutely respect to the owners. Love it. We'll worth a trip.

Not bad pizza but paying £2 extra for a tiny tin of sauce and £1 extra for hot honey on the pizzas to not even be able to tell there was any on there, unfortunately soured the experience. Service was also somewhat lacking as poor communication to what to do. Had to get our own drinks and ask for the sauces we had pre-paid for, and had to wait 25mins for the pizzas despite having a collection time of 8pm- which would have been if this all had of been communicated to us as to this was how it all worked. Could be great with some small improvements

Loved the pizza here and would definitely come back. Quite a low key location with not much parking so would be easy to miss but worth a visit if you’re a pizza lover! Restaurant has a sort of street food vibe, very casual. We opted for the larger size pizza and ended up taking more than half of it home in a box so I would say only order the larger size if you are sharing with someone. Thanks all for having us 🍕🍕🍕

Great pizza restaurant. Food was amazing

Had the plain tom, melanzana, New Haven, and spring special “Finally Sun”. Unreal! Especially the special- the mojo verde was delicious.

By far the best pizzas in the area. Friendly staff. Small neighbourhood gem, often busy.

Service as it should be, pizza as it should be, vibe as it should be, you get me? We love going back to this place. Being italian we’re pizza snobs and Gracey’s has been a great find for us. I 100% recommend it to anyone.

I stayed local for work and and was looking for something nearby that was different. The pictures caught my eye and i had to have one. Ordered the large Ron Pizza and it was amazing! It was around £21 i think but will do for seconds later or next day if you can't eat it all. The taste was beautiful. Little Floppy but nice, cooked to perfection on top and bottom. Nice and thin. If your local or popping by then pop in and get one to eat in or take a way. Staff very happy, helpful and actually look like they enjoy what they do. If I'm staying that way again I'll be sure to come by again.

Just stumbled upon this place, absolutely fabulous food and vibe. Were happy to do a half and half pizza. Would highly recommend if proper Italian pizza is your thing !

Pizza is great, shop is nicely done out. Quiet when we went, however does get busy later and over the weekend

What’s not to like. Amazing pizza. Good music. Super friendly staff. The real deal. If you have never been then do. You won’t be disappointed. I keep coming back. My boys and friends love this place. See you soon. Thanks Rob
