Brad Pitt has been spotted throughout England recently while filming at Silverstone for his upcoming F1 movie.
The actor took some unexpected time off to visit Weybridge in Surrey, where he dined at Valentina’s, a family-run restaurant.
According to the staff and other sources, Brad, 60, visited the restaurant with “his partner” during a quiet period between lunch and dinner. The staff described him as “very polite and quite reserved,” noting that “it was a nice experience.”
Brad reportedly shared a starter of Pesto Arancini and enjoyed one of the restaurant’s most popular dishes, the Pizza nduja piccante, topped with nduja sausage and ventricina salami. His guest opted for the vegetarian pizza.
The restaurant staff were thrilled by Brad’s unexpected visit, almost unable to believe he had come in.
One member of staff said: “It was really funny because at first, I went to serve their drinks and as I was pouring, they asked me some things about the menu. I couldn’t see his face well because the whole time he had a hat on. I recognized when he looked slightly up at me when he said ‘thank you’, and his voice sounded familiar.”
“I finished serving and went to tell my colleagues – both of them looked at me like I was crazy”, she continued. But as they continued interacting with him throughout his stay, they couldn’t believe she was right. My manager politely asked him if he’d be willing to take a photo”, she said, which Brad happily obliged, although the team have not posted the photo publicly for discretionary reasons.
Not only was the actor happy to be photographed with the staff, but he also left a “generous tip.”
