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.

This is the philosophy of our neighbourhood restaurant FUMI, located in the centre of Brighton.

At FUMI, we source all our produce, meats and fish from small, local suppliers.

Each meal at FUMI is a celebration of bountiful harvests, beloved community, and our favourite pairing of food and friends. We hope you enjoy.

    One of the best Peruvian restaurants in the UK. Traditional, yet creative. The dishes are carefully put together, almost with love. The ingredients are always super fresh. It feels like home. The staff is friendly and the service is great. On a weekend, it is also lively, sometimes with live music. There are also regular events. One of the best spots in Brighton.

    Absolutely brilliant pizzas - mine was the white pizza with burrata and parma ham, my son had the daily special, a sort of spicy arrabiata with nduja. They offer 500cl carafes of wine, perfect for an early lunch. Do try the starters too - my nduja lasagne fritta were amazing. Very cheerful service, and prompt for a busy Saturday - but then we did book for 12 noon! By the time we left at 1, the was a queue of eight or so parties outside. We were very grateful to the table next to us for making sure we went to the football stadium by a sensible route and didn't try to walk!
