Pizzeria Valona
Proper Neapolitan pizza that actually tastes like it's been made by someone who knows what they're doing. No nonsense, just good dough and toppings that matter.

You walk into High Street and there's Pizzeria Valona, doing the thing that most pizza places round here only pretend to do. The wood-fired oven's working hard, and you can actually taste the difference—the crust has that leopard-spotted char, the cheese isn't congealed sadness, and they're not drowning everything in oil to hide mediocrity. It's the kind of place where locals keep coming back because the food's genuinely good, not because it's Instagram-friendly or trying too hard. Prices sit at around £10-15 per pizza, which feels fair when you're getting proper ingredients and technique. The room's got a relaxed, unpretentious vibe—this is about eating well, not performing for your feed.
