A pizza restaurant in Sussex has been named among the best in Europe.

Fatto a Mano opened in North Laine in Brighton in 2015, and has since opened two more restaurants in Brighton and Hove and six in London.

It came in at number 23 in a list of The 50 Best Pizzas in Europe as compiled by Big 7 Travel.

The list celebrates everything from world-famous Neapolitan institutions to hidden gems putting their own spin on Italy's most-loved dish.

The entry for Fatto a Mano reads: “One of the UK’s best pizza spots outside of London is found in Brighton. Fatto a Mano doesn’t do things by halves: they use a wood-fired oven, imported Italian ingredients and slow fermented dough for that idyllic Neapolitan touch.

"The end result is not just a stunning pizza, but the fact that Fatto a Mano have managed to expand from their original shop in Brighton to opening two more in the city, and a further six in London, including their recently opened Baker Street shop.”

Europe continues to set high standards for pizza. Whether it's a unique pizza with creative toppings or a classic baked to perfection with top-quality ingredients.

Big 7 Travel crunched customer reviews, chatted with local foodies, and leaned on its own pizza-obsessed judgement to create the list. Ingredients, technique, vibe, and a bit of cred all played a part, too.

The top spot went to 10 Diego Vitagliano Pizzeria, in Naples, Italy.
