Pizza Pilgrim

The wait has been long but @pizzapilgrims has finally landed in Brighton and I couldn’t be more excited about it! Not usually a fan of chains making theirselves comfortable in our unique little city but some you can let off and this is definitely one of them!

To start with the decor is fantastic! So much character and interactive fun, you would never get bored here… including a very unique 3-a side football pitch in the basement plus a PS5 and football table that is available for hire for events and special occasions which looks like a lot of fun!

The food… we ordered the Burrata for starter with the mozzarella balls and olives and they were fantastic! The Burrata doesn’t need much introduction with the accompaniments of Pesto, tomatoes and fresh breadsticks which were delicious. I had the Double Pepperoni & Spicy Honey Pizza which was incredible with the dough being the kind of dough you dream about in a pizza. My friend had the Salsiccia e Friarielli pizza which was Roasted Italian sausage and wild broccoletti on an olive oil base with smoked mozzarella & fresh chilli and she said it was amazing! An old school Naples recipe that has gone down well on their menu

Shout out to the unconventional crust dippers consisting of Truffle, Pesto and Nduja which I think were incredible, Really elevated the meal and would highly recommend for you to try if you decide to visit!

The drinks were a mixed bag. We tried a few, shout out to the negroni which was really good so would definitely have again. The Ferrero Espresso Martini at the end wasnt the best but not a reason to not go back so wouldn’t hold it against them. The sharing tiramisu on the other hand was epic and would definitely go back for with its quirky presentation in a Nutella jar, could probably do one on my own!

All in all, a very pleasant experience, I would go back in a heartbeat and probably will very soon. It was very busy though and feel the staff may have had a shock of how popular they were going to be so would recommend booking unless you are happy to wait… but I would say this is an excellent addition to the Brighton food scene!

I was invited to try this one. As always, all opinions are my own.
