History Pizzeria in Brighton and Hove

Lovely atmosphere and fantastic service, incredibly attentive. The Negroni’s are top notch.

A hidden treasure of Hove that everyone needs to know about. Fantastic pizza, wonderful friendly service and an authentic Italian atmosphere that will definitely have me coming back for more.

The place is super, I loved the special whimsical pizza from Hicham, the super master chef 😍🤗🤗. Thank you so much!

I came in with a request to eat in and get food fast as I had an evening meeting. The gentleman at the front of house was super accommodating and made me feel very welcome. The pizza came really quickly with delicious fresh ingredients. Will definitely come back to this place!

What an amazing little gem! Great Italian (Roman style) pizza with friendly atmosphere and incredible desserts. Thank you to the owner and his brother for making our Xmas get together a fun one 😊

The place is really lovely. The server is really fluent in English and is charismatic. But most of all, the pizza was delicious! Everyone in the restaurant was really kind, it made me feel at ease considering that I was alone. You have got to try this restaurant, you won’t be disappointed! Also, they were nice enough to give me a little souvenir!

Amazing service and delicious food 🥰 we are regular customers! Highly recommend!

Friendly staff, delicious pizza!

Lets keep this short and simple: Best pizza in Brighton and it's not even close. Best service, they are both lovely and always find time to have a conversation with you. It's a small place with limited seating and shockingly enough I cant believe its not packed all day everyday. The crust and pizza is thin and crispy using the best ingredients around. Keep up the amazing work, I will be back again and again.

Splendid place not far from the seafront, welcoming place, excellent quality raw materials, kind, easy-going and sociable staff and owner, authentic Italian pizza. We will definitely be back we felt at home. Thanks History

Over the top pizzeria, in the center of Brighton! Real Italian pizza, experience to spare! Excellent service! Beautiful location! I will definitely be back! It felt like home to me!

Oh my goodness guys this is the second time I've come to eat here you know one thing the pizza is always better I don't know why maybe I know I like it more and more thanks history we will be back for sure 🫶

History Pizzeria is the best Italian restaurant in the area. Not only is the food exceptional, but Hicham and Michael are incredible people and create a wonderful, hospitable environment! I couldn’t recommend this place enough and when you go, you’ll know you’re at home in this cosy restaurant with fantastic pizza and vibes. 10/10!

We were greeted with a very warm welcome (even though they were closed) he insisted that we come in and he’d make us some pizzas :) My burrata, pancetta and mushroom pizza was unbelievable! We’ll definitely be back! With so many options for pizza in Brighton and Hove. This is a standout choice.

Had a lovely pizza, very friendly staff. Very good!

Delicious pizza and excellent service. Well worth a visit.

One of the best pizza's I've had in Brighton. Atmosphere was great and the owner was a legend. 10/10 would come again

I highly recommend History Pizzeria! Never had a pizza like this before, THE BEST! History Pizzeria offers its customers a great dining experience. The pizzas are incredible and the products are artisanal and high quality. Service is outstanding, the atmosphere is amazing, the place is super cozy and clean. What can I say? Finally real Italian pizza in Brighton and Hove! Good luck guys!

Delicious pizza! Only negative was a service charge was added with no warning on the menu so a pizza ended up costing £18! I'd understand a corkage charge but neither of us had drinks.

We had a great evening. I absolutely love this place, very nice atmosphere, spotless clean and pizzas are the best in town. I love when my pizza is crispy. You won't be disappointed. Highly recommend it 👌

The best pizza in Brighton by far, fantastic service and very reasonable priced.

I went to the pizzeria yesterday. The staff were so nice, kind, and helpful. They always had a smile on their face and very welcoming. The pizza I got was the best Italian pizza I have ever had. I had a conversation with the owner and he told me that he brings all the ingredients from Italy. That’s why their pizza is very unique. I had also a cup of cappuccino with my friend and it was delicious. I like it!! Highly recommended if you want to go out of a pizza or a coffee with friends or family.

Always come here with friends and family, it is genuinely the best pizza in Brighton (maybe even the uk). The staff have always gone above and beyond anytime I have been there. Would highly recommend the margherita pizza!!

Been going to this place for over a year and it so so good best pizza in Brighton

Best focaccia and pizza 🍕 Service professional and friendly Lovely athmosphere Will be back 100% Much better then other pizzeria I visited. Grazie

These pizzas are just perfect every time. The base is delicious and always done just right - no soggy bottoms here. The toppings use the best quality ingredients and combinations balanced just right. It's also unexpectedly pleasant if you choose to sit in and the staff are charming.

FANTASTICO BEEN IN UK FOR 27 YEARS THIS IS THE BEST PLACE FOR PIZZA,FOCACCIA AND SERVICE

Really lovely home baked pizzas and food. The owner ‘H’ is such a lovely friendly guy and will accommodate your needs with anything you like. The best .. we’ll be back regularly!

Absolutely NO. 1 pizza I’ve had in the UK. Authentic , generous and great service. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED TO ALL AFICIONADOS… !!!! 👌👌👌

Lovely restaurant - really friendly with great pizza. Our waiter Michael Costa was brilliant - nothing was too much trouble - most polite service we’ve had in ages!

Nice place, best staff. Unbelievable Food , 10/10

Delicious pizzas and very friendly and polite service! Will definitely come back!!

I cannot recommend History Pizza enough! These have to be the best pizzas in Brighton and Hove, and we’ve been to enough places to stand by that! Everything on the menu is delicious. Our favorites are the Vegetarian and Salmon pizzas, and the tiramisu to finish is sublime! The finest level of customer service you’ll ever find in a pizzeria caps off a wonderful experience!

An amazing little pizzeria. We stopped in tonight on a recommendation and we weren’t disappointed. We were looked after by Michele who was delightful. He was helpful and informative and made us feel very welcome. The service was impeccable, As was the food. We both had a diavola which we were warned was spicy and it was. It was delicious, a really well made pizza. I can’t fault the experience from start to finish. Well worth a visit. This is going to be a regular stop for us from now on.

Best service in the world ❤️ Will definitely come here again. The pizza was delicious ❤️

This is a local pizza restaurant run by Italians. We can confidently say that History Pizzeria's Punggi Pizza is much better than other pizza places. They only sell Italian Cola, not Coca-Cola. Please note

History is absolutely the place for anyone craving authentic Italian pizza. The dough is just perfect (and won’t leave you thirsty which means it’s well leavened) the service is excellent. I’m Italian and this is the place a recommend to anyone who asks for suggestions for an authentic pizza in Brighton & Hove. Well done Isham and team!

Authentic pizza dough, cooked the roman way and garnished with quality italian ingredients!

im a professional chef 🧑‍🍳 i have a business in st james’s street my self in the same city as these guys, and i only say this because the words that im about to say are truly honest, this was the best pizza dough that i have ever had in brighton, i dont know who was working in the kitchen but i definitely knew that the guy was a maestro on his food, the buffalo mozzarella was fresh and delicious and the pizza dough was delicious absolutely delicious and the service was sweet and down to earth 🌍 thank you a million times

Went here last night. Staff were extremely friendly and attentive. However the pizza is definitely isn’t worth the 5 star reviews found on Google. It was soggy and the toppings slid right off. Overall we had a nice time but can find better pizza places in the area and would not return.

Antonio makes the best Pizza 🍕slice of the gods!

Very nice service and great pizza, highly recommended!

Great prices, amazing staff and a lovely place to eat in! Their food always hits! would 100% recommend

Amazing pizza, great atmosphere 10/10 every time I visit

Genuinely a wonderful place , great guys and that tiramisu deserves a nobel peace price

kindest most helpful staff , by far the best pizza in brighton without a doubt , got a lot of love for this place 🤞🏻

Best pizza ever, never any problems and lovely owner

Best pizza place in all of Brighton!!!! And the manager is a great human being

As someone that does live italy this is truly some good authentic pizza the crust was really thin and crispy the sauce was delicious and the ingredients stayed on the pizza and were really fresh. The selection of drinks was really diverse and had a lot of italian drinks. Staff and athmosphere were amazing really good place i would definetly recommend probably the best pizza in brighton. Thank you very much for the pizza and the nice service. Grazie mille history pizzeria ci rivediamo un giorno.

Very good, light and crispy dough, with perfect leopard spotting on the bottom. Owner is very friendly and has a history in baking. Burrata is very tasty as well. Lots of love and passion in the food 5 stars

What a little Gem for Hove. Very friendly staff, the pizza was incredible. All fresh products and not shy with the servings. Reasonable prices for a tasty pizza. Best I've had outside of Italy.

The best Italian in the city, the guy is super nice and super fast and with a very good price. Super recommended if you are in the city!!

Full house of 5 stars for these boys! This place makes you feel alive! From the smiley welcomes as you enter - to the divine pizzas - to the wonderful, attentive service - to the very clever use of spice… Spicy pizzas can often be such a let down. But mine was just perfect - still dreaming of that dreamy Diavolo🌶 infact! It’s the addition of that chilli Nduja sausage?! Don’t know what they did to it - but I want more!! Gorgeous smiles from all the boys and love the story of the brothers too. History pizza is a fitting name indeed.. leaves you curious to know more.. Very fair corkage too and lovely ambiance, decor and vibe in the restaurant. Cosy as! And it’s overlooking one of the best squares in Hove too! Palmiera Square heaven baby.. tables outside too for al fresco which we’ll have to try next.. You guys are just lovely humans, well done! New favourite spot hands down. We shall be back 1000% … What a joint 🍕🍕🍕 Randa & Matt x

Their Burrata Parma pizza is the best! Absolutely love it! 👌

Delicious pizza and amazing sharing starter. Fabulous, friendly service and a great atmosphere. Reasonably priced too. Best pizza in Brighton/Hove by miles. Loved it!

This is our go-to pizzeria because it's the best there is! We've been to so many pizzeria, but none have come close to History! Simply the BEST!

Fantastic. We had delicious bruschetta to start followed by pizza and cannoli & tiramisu. Every bite delicious and authentic. Service was impeccable. A gem of a place

Very good food, BYOB and person serving us was so polite and nice! The atmosphere is great. It's just perfect.

Great pizza. The dough is fantastic.

Great pizza, lovely owners. Less than £30 for a three course meal.… plus BYOB.

One of the best pizza spots in in Brighton. Have been there a few times now, and every time the pizza has been amazing! Great friendly service too with a clear passion for good pizza - highly recommend!

Excellent food and friendly staff.

The pizza is really crispy and delicious. I highly recommend Brighton Pizza Place 🍕

This is the best pizza I’ve ever had, 100% the best in Brighton. The dough is to die for and the ingredients they use are top notch. The guys here are lovely and always have good banter; me and my boyfriend keep coming back. Super highly recommended by a native Brightonian.

Great Roman style this and crispy pizzas. Great menu and friendly service. Definitely the best pizzeria in Brighton!

So delicious and incredibly friendly and kind to my 2 yr old. Lovely chaps and fantastic pizza.

Delicious pizza and friendly and attentive service

Such a lovely and welcoming place! My pizza was delicious and the waiter was so attentive and cheery, my friend and I felt very looked after as soon as we walked in to when we left! You can really tell how passionate these guys are with creating the best pizzas and environment - will 100% be back :)

Absolutely delicious pizza in the near center of Brighton. The owner is born and bred Italian. Plus, with his expert experience in bread making, it allows his pizzas to be extremely scrumptious. Furthermore, the 72 hour sourdough rising time allows the pizza to be light on the stomach, even if intolerant to gluten! The restaurant is airy and intimate, perfect for an outing with partners or friends. And the staff are so lovely, Micaël was super amicable towards all the customers. If you are from and around Brighton, I definitely recommend that you give this place a visit!

Delicious food and a fantastic waiter! He was so tentative, polite and smiley. Really lovely restaurant, would definitely recommend :)

Indeed worthy of the 5 stars review.

Got some takeaway pizzas from here. Perfectly cooked and the guy who made the pizza clearly knew his stuff as he (rightfully) pulled a face when I mentioned pineapple! Brighton’s best-kept secret pizza place. Try it!

Incredible food, welcoming and helpful staff. Ask them for a recommendation, they are always on point ! Small but cosy dine in spot. Great when you pass by on the way to and from the beach.

Lovely people serving lovely food. BYO great for an easy evening too. Cheers!

Lovely place great pizza friendly and good service

The Italian flavors and tastes in the middle of Brighton and Hove

Best pizza in Brighton / hove. Wonderful service.. incredible value. What a find. Fabulous

The best pizza, tiramisu & service in Brighton & Hove. Leonardo was an absolute delight. We will be back again, we love this place.

IMO Brighton’s top pizzeria. Crispy, lighter style Roman pizza. A small pizzeria (about 12 covers), so reserve if you want to eat in. BYO! Wonderful homemade Tiramisu too! Friendly staff. Run by Italians, unlike many others in Brighton.

My new favourite, authentic pizza place in Brighton…and pretty much all of UK…delicoso !!

Had a long day up in London and popped in history before collapsing at my door. H told me to write an honest review, so here it is: H, that calzone gave me life. The special cheese too, boiii… We go often, and the pizza here always on point.. But today reconfirmed why we love history, thank you H.

Had to leave a review as had my third delivery pizza from History and it is without doubt the best pizza I have had outside of Naples! I used to like VIP but this is far superior! The dough is unlike other pizzas you want to eat all of it including the crust, top quality ingredients and even the tiramisu is excellent, authentic and homemade.

Fantastic Italian pizza and espresso superb ,everyone should try .Good luck guys 👍

5 Stars: A Slice of Perfection at History Pizzeria From the moment you step into History Pizzeria, the team’s incredible warmth and attentiveness shine through. They’re not just professional; they’re passionate about what they do, making every guest feel genuinely valued and well-looked after. The food is nothing short of marvellous. Each pizza offers a delightful journey through rich flavours and textures, with a perfectly balanced crust that’s crispy yet yielding. The toppings are fresh, abundant, and thoughtfully curated, creating a symphony of tastes in every bite. And the coffee? Absolutely exceptional. It’s evident that they take their brews seriously here, serving up a rich and aromatic cuppa that perfectly rounds off a splendid meal. History Pizzeria is more than a place for great food and coffee; it’s an experience that delights all the senses. A must-visit for anyone who cherishes culinary craftsmanship in a friendly and welcoming atmosphere. This place rightly earns its five stars!

One of the best pizza I ate in my life ,great test of peperoni ,jalapeno and the dough is excellent , fantastic esspreso .Our son had Foccacia and vanilla milk shake ,he want to go back when we going to visit Brighton again .

Popped in for lunch on a Saturday due to all the five star reviews and we weren’t disappointed. Fantastic pizzas and friendly and quick service. Would highly recommend.

Came here today after passing by many a time thinking the pizzas looked great. Best pizza I have had in this town. Lovely people running this gem and the pizzas did not disappoint. Only disappointment was that I had no room to try the home made tiramisu. There will definitely be a next time. Highly recommend this local business. Bonus is it is also BYO.

Awesome pizza, lovely people. Absolutely agreed that this is now our favourite pizza place. We’d seen the reviews on here and didn’t think it could possibly be as everyone says, but it really is. Thanks guys!

We've eaten here and also had pizza on deliveroo. The pizza romana is quality, and if you haven't had it before it's a crispier base than the neapolitan pizzas you'll get around Brighton. Our favourite pizza in Brighton at the moment! In the restaurant the service was great and friendly, and we'll be back for sure.

What an incredible spot, finally got a chance to stop by today after passing the restaurant everyday on my way to work and thinking how good it looks, absolutely incredible pizza, the best me and my girlfriend had ever had, we had a margarita with olive pate and I’ve never been so blown away by a quick lunch in all my life, absolutely Devine crust, amazing sauce, super fresh ingredients and cooked to perfection, lovely char on the bottom of the pizza works so well with the sweet tomato sauce. Huge shoutout to the guys there as well, both lovely people, will be returning soon (most likely again this week) can’t wish these guys enough success!

To me, curry and pizza get to be so hit and miss . You get a few good ones, very few really good ones and then the clearly exceptional. I have no reservation in saying History pizzeria ‘s are the best I have tried in the whole of Brighton and Hove , and possibly beyond. And this is no exaggeration. Hicham, the owner / pizzaiolo grew up in Italy in a family of bakers where form an early age his father taught him to put his heart into whatever he does, something he proudly boasts of applying to his cooking. His passion about quality not quantity shows too, ...skipping days of rest to be there, telling us he isn’t interested in the vulgarity of growth and expansion where he won’t be able to sustain the quality in the food. They are super light too... you won’t feel drowsy or ‘stuffed’ And the place is super clean. . You can also BYO (Bring Your Own booze)

Great food and service. Ordered the Pizza Speciale and it was great. I enjoyed it to the last bit.

Delicious pizza, amazing service and cosy atmosphere 😍

Truly amazing, from the second we walked in the door we felt as if we had been transported into an authentic, Italian, family run kitchen. The staff made it seem as if they were so happy to have us there, to experience there cooking with them, and the food was truly incredible. I find it so hard to find a decent pizza, there are so many chains that are always sub par with above par prices, but history pizzeria was spot on; the food, the price, and the service was amazing. We’re not the type to leave a review but we felt they deserve it, and other should know how great it is too.

This place gives me warm memories of my time in Italy. This pizzeria has such a cute and traditional decor. The customer service is amazing the waiter went above and beyond and made my whole dining experience amazing. Now about the food, the pizza was the best I had outside of Italy. I have tried pizzas around the UK and globally and nothing compares to the ones in Italy but this one is exactly like those in Italy.

Lovely staff, grabbed a margerita was blown away. Stand out pizza for sure. Not another neapolitan pizza clone. Similar to lucalis in NY Thanks!!

Had pizza here for the first time today with my family and the (I think) owner said it would be the best pizza we ever had and he was definitely right! It was delicious, really tasty, fresh, felt like we were in a real Italian decent pizzeria. Excellent, friendly service, we’ll be back!

Warm and friendly greeting. Ordered the speciale, packed with delicious fresh ingredients. Would order again.

Simply the best authentic Romana Pizzas in Hove & Brighton. Great atmosphere, great guys & bring your own wine 10/10
