We started Fatto a Mano in Brighton in 2015, serving authentic and affordable Neapolitan pizza, made with fresh ingredients, in a friendly environment. For us, everything starts with our dough. Soft and pillowy, our pizza dough is made fresh every day, using only the best Italian 00 flour, salt, water and yeast. We let our dough prove for at least 24 hours – the slow proving means we’re able to use minimal quantities of yeast, so our pizzas are light and easily digestible. We use carefully selected Italian and local British ingredients from a handful of small, independent suppliers to top our pizzas. Finally, our pizzaioli cook the pizzas in our oven at about 450 degrees, for no more than 90 seconds, in true Neapolitan style.

PIZZA

Naples is the birthplace of pizza… Soft and pillowy, rather than thin and crispy or a pizza pie. Our dough is made by us every day, proved for a minimum of 24 hours, then topped by our pizzaioli who cook every pizza in our ovens at 450+ degrees. Buon appetito!

For reasons none of us remember and certainly no-one would want to challenge we always go to Fatto a Mano for lunch on Christmas Eve. The pizzas were gorgeous (special mention for the lovely vegan truffle pizza!) and the waiting staff very attentive and fun, clearly enjoying their work.

Excellent on all accounts. Booking advised as it is very busy, and for good reason! Excellent food and service and atmosphere. One person’s calzone took a bit longer to come out and the chef sent free fries whilst we waited. Pizza was the best we’ve had, absolutely delicious. Would never have known my pizza was gluten free! 10/10 will be coming back again!

The restaurant staff seemed very nice and when we asked about gluten free options they were clear this was only possible if it was a choice rather than an allergy. I am a coeliac so it is essential for me to be gluten free. I checked with the chef and not only do they cook all the pizzas on open shelves in the same oven they also, he told me, use ordinary flour when making the gluten free dough into a pizza so it would definitely be cross contaminated. Sadly this meant they could not cater for me, so we went to another nearby restaurant where they could. I think they should be clear that their pizzas can be made using gluten free dough but that they will not actually be gluten free because of the cooking process.
Fatto a Mano HoveResponded on October 15, 2024
We understand how difficult it must be dining out with a serious allergy. We offer non-gluten option as an option for intolerances, and are cautious in letting guests know that we can't guarantee gluten-free as we don't have separate prep kitchens and one of our core ingredients is flour. Our procedures, for clarity: - Both gluten and non-gluten dough is prepared in our central kitchen - made in separate batches, the dough machine thoroughly cleaned between uses - In the pizzerias, all our dough balls are opened into pizzas on the same counters, all using non-gluten rice flour to stop sticking - We only have one oven in each pizzeria. Due to the heat in our ovens we can’t use trays to cook pizzas separately. Please let us know if you need anything else.

Booked a ground floor table which was offered after a very short wait on a busy Friday evening. Food very good as service was- our only gripe was that the starter arrived with the main courses and I had to ask for the mains to be sent back. Otherwise all was good
Fatto a Mano HoveResponded on September 30, 2024
Thank you, Stuart! Our starters are generally starters or sides but we should always make sure that you get them when you want them... apologies about that. We hope to see you again soon!
