Rudy’s

Brighton is full of great pizza spots, and now @wearerudyspizza joins the ranks with their brand new location on Jubilee Street (in the old Chilli Pickle site). Known for their authentic Neapolitan style pizzas, I was excited to finally try them out

The space is large and airy, with a gorgeous open kitchen and statement pizza oven at its heart. There’s also a sunny terrace perfect for summer dining. While it’s family friendly (high chairs + baby change available), there’s no kids’ menu yet, hopefully one will be added soon, as the adult menu can be a bit much for little ones. We started with the Campana sharing board- a lovely selection of meats and cheeses, and a huge garlic bread (easily sharable between 4). The Triple Pepperoni & Hot Honey pizza stole the show: bold, flavourful, and perfectly balanced. The Nduja Aioli dip? Addictive. We also tried the Diego’s Diavola special, which came loaded with spicy toppings and a burrata I had to add, but without the burrata, the topping-to-base ratio felt a bit underwhelming for such a large pizza, considering this was one of their specials, I was expecting a bit more but overall, the pizza quality was high standard.

Too full for dessert this time, but their authentically pleasuring Italian menu of tiramisu, affogato (boozy option too 👀), and gelato is calling me back. Final thoughts: top tier starters, fab pizzas, great spritz, and the pizza dips were a real highlight. Just needs a kids’ option to make it even more family-friendly would be ideal here. Worth checking out next time you’re craving pizza in the city!

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