On Friday nights they open late and do a dinner service. We went in the day before and asked if they would do a gluten-free option and she prepared one specially for us. The food was beautiful and very well priced. Will definitely go again.

A charming Italian café run by two wonderful women. The food is excellent. The Margherita pizza is perfect — I haven’t had one this good anywhere in England. The salad with antipasti and goat cheese was also outstanding. Highly recommended. Enjoy!

Lea catered for our daughter’s 21st at the weekend and it was absolutely delicious. We had 3 large trays and pasta and one vegetable dish. She provided dishes to keep it warm! Would highly recommend! Thank you Lea and family x

Such a cute little cafe - so lucky it is on our doorstep! Authentic and delicious Italian food - reminds us of our holidays to Italy. The owners are lovely and the sevice is perfect. Have to try and resist popping in daily for a little treat! Can’t wait to try one of the antipasto boards. Keep up the good work :)

Wonderful food and great service! We stopped by on our way to the airport and were so glad we picked this place. We had pizza, pasta and veg dishes and everything was delicious! The pistachio panna cotta is easily one of the best desserts I've had.
