The Best Pizzerias in the United Kingdom

Neapolitan Pizzerias

Stile Napoletano in Chester sits on Watergate Street with a small room and an open kitchen. Ventisei Pizzeria Napoletana in central Brighton uses a wood-fired oven and Italian ingredients such as mortadella and buffalo mozzarella. Pizzamisú in Nottingham serves a large menu of soft, airy pizzas on tomato or white bases, and its dough and a vintage oven are notable features.

New York and Detroit Styles

Gigis Pizza Shop in Old Market, Bristol, serves New York-style pizza by the slice or as whole pies. The dough is thin and crisp, and the vodka and pepperoni pizzas are available, though salt levels and waits are a concern. Sarv's Slice is a family-run counter on the ground floor of Ealing Picturehouse in London, selling Detroit-style square pizza by the slice.

Small Rooms and Mobile Kitchens

Monellis in Hastings Old Town is a small Puglian-style pizzeria run by an Italian couple, serving sourdough pizzas. Little Woodfire operates a wood-fired Neapolitan food truck in Edinburgh, with a few tables nearby and a brick-and-mortar restaurant planned. Dough Eyed in York pairs Neapolitan-style pizza with craft beer, cocktails and homemade desserts.
