65 Western Rd, Brighton and Hove, Hove BN3 2JQ · Pizza restaurant, Italian restaurant, Takeout Restaurant · The Lanes

Cozy Roman-style pizzeria delivering crisp, leopard-spotted pies and warm, owner-led hospitality at fair prices, with minor service hiccups and occasional fulfillment lapses.

Our take

History Pizzeria exemplifies grade A standards through exceptional food quality anchored in masterful dough craft and premium ingredients, paired with outstanding service attentiveness that makes diners feel genuinely welcomed. The strong consistency across repeat visits, combined with fair pricing for artisan execution and a loyal following, positions it among Brighton's finest pizza destinations—though the intimate space and occasional operational hiccups keep it from transcendent territory.

In more detail

On the corner by Palmeira Square, this tiny spot hums with warm, neighborly energy. Staff greet you like regulars, dough is discussed with pride, and plates land quickly. As one diner put it, "that crisp, leopard-spotted base made me forget every other pie in town." Expect smiling service and a cozy room that fills fast. The cooking leans classic Roman-Neapolitan with artisan attention to dough and clean, high-quality toppings. Most of the menu hews traditional—Margherita, Diavola, Bufalina—alongside a few house signatures like red cabbage cream or pistachio notes. It is less about theatrics and more about clarity of flavor, with tiramisu that many call a must. Families fit right in. Kids can share a Margherita, simple focaccia, or pasta-style lasagna, and portions are friendly. There is no kids menu, but the familiar pizza lineup keeps it easy. If your crew needs ultra-plain or gluten-free dough, options are limited, so plan accordingly.
