About La Bella Pizzeria
On 1 High St in Middlesbrough, La Bella Pizzeria is a pizza takeout that sells its pizzas in 3/4 foot, 1 foot and 1.5 foot sizes, so the size can be matched to the order. The menu also includes a Parmo pizza and a chicken parmo with a Hot Shot Parmo version. Donner kebab is served with salad. The shop is very small with a small waiting area, and it works on a walk-in basis. A chilli condiment is offered with pizza.

Customer Review Summary
Pizza draws the most comment, with reviewers calling the pizzas yummy and delicious and noting they come out nice and round in three sizes, though one dislikes the chilli condiment. Close behind, one reviewer recommends the Hot Shot Parmo, and another calls the chicken kebabs consistently good, served with crisp salad. Several describe the staff as friendly. The praise sits alongside a substantial run of complaints. The donner kebab is faulted by two reviewers for dry meat that looked boiled, a dry pitta, a small portion and food that arrived cold. Another says the parmo pizza has tomato purée rather than béchamel, and a third found the dough stodgy and the seafood pizza topped with only two mussels. One reviewer reports food poisoning after a chicken parmo. One donner customer says mayo was charged for but never put in the bag.

“Wouldn't eat here again after getting food poisoning from a chicken parmo! The man that served me said the prices were different to that stated on the menu and wanted an extra £1 as he said the price of chicken had gone up 1.5 hours after eating this crap I was on the toilet and couldnt keep off for 2 days Avoid!”

“Unable to share images off my phone. First time to Great Ayton and thought we'd try this place at the end of the night. Very disappointed with the donner and chicken kebab which reminded me of something from the mid 90s when we got one after a sesh on the drink. Meat looked boiled and undercooked. Big lumps of charred chicken which I'd have expected be shredded and marinated mixed with the donner meat. No sauces included. Just dry meat and a dry pitta bread just tossed in the bag and a bit of salad on the side. In today's day and age with authentic street food vendors and more upto date authentic international food it's a shame that establishments are still knocking out this crap food in 2026”
