EDIT: Brought my husband there yesterday and we enjoyed the food and coffee so much. Sat at the outdoor terrace, Tony and his staff have been so friendly throughout when I asked for wine suggestions. I grabbed more goodies and just loved the service. :) Went in just over a month ago to get a quick lunch when we first moved into St Albans, there’s a huge selection of food to choose from! I got a ciabatta, an arancini, a couple of cannoli’s and a coffee - all were so delicious!

Popped in for some breakfast this morning, was warmly welcomed out of the pouring rain by Tony. I was able to sit in, but be aware that there is very limited seating! Excellent food, service, and I took away a delicious veggie sandwich for later. P.S. - Directions to the station worked a treat, Tony, and included a nice view of the nunnery ruins!

I discovered this place last week but I wish I did years ago. I've been getting breakfast/ lunch from this place for almost every day over the last week. You can find freshly made sandwiches, cold cuts, baked items, fruits, coffee, cake, cheese, drinks, salads, olives and pickled items, pasta,etc. 10/10 shop. The only downside is the parking, 3 spots are available outside but it can get busy.

Went to Buongiorno Italia today to pick up some everyday food like pesto, lemon marmalade, chinotto, pistachio creme, and some lovely fresh bread + cheeses, plus some Christmas goodies - Panbriacone, Panpepato, lovely Italian biscuits, and a Pear & Sultana Panettone. Had a delicious ciabatta and coffee breakfast on the terrace outside, and we've just had BI's amazing home-made Lasagne for dinner with a dressed herb salad and a bottle of Rosapasso Biscardo that was in our wine rack. Oh my GOD that Lasagne was amazing!! Best we've ever tasted by far. Still got their home-made Tiramisu to look forward to in a minute for dessert. Absolutely love this place, no matter how busy they are (and they get VERY busy, another good sign) service is always with a smile, and a cheeky comment or two from Tony 😉 Thanks Tony and all at Buongiorno Italia ❤️

A must-visit Italian deli if you are in St Albans or look for gourmet Italian ingredients to make of a meal an unforgettable experience. You can also buy or enjoy on site delicious sandwiches, desserts or pastries and tasty coffeee. Do not miss it. It's really good value, a quiet location, some tables to eat al fresco and an excellent variety of products to do your groceries on a daily basis. The staff is super friendly and the shop is spotlessly clean.

I had intended to visit here for years as I’d heard that it sold authentic Italian produce, but finally dropped by to buy frozen pizza dough-balls. At 1pm on a Friday afternoon this little shop was incredibly busy, with customers queuing for sandwiches to be made-up from the deli counter, and others eating outside. I was very happy to wait, giving me time to take in the huge array of goods they have. My dough-balls were only £3.95 for a bag of four, each enough for a 10 inch pizza base, so great value. I also picked up some biscotti and other treats while I was waiting. Despite being so busy, the staff were all really friendly and welcoming. The meats, cheeses, olives, arancini etc all looked amazing, and the range of goods on the shelves is impressive. Definitely the best Italian deli in the area; I could spend a lot of money here! I’ve been back already, within a few days of my first visit, hence the mid-afternoon pictures when it was quieter.

Today in the UK 26C, so it has to be salad tonight. Drove to my favourite Italian delicatessen in St Albans. Produce, whether vegetables, meats, pastries always wide ranging and fresh. Stocked up on: Mortadella, Ventracina salami, garlic stuffed olives, seafood salad and not forgetting the canolis. Sat outside with a cappuccino and fresh torta della. Superb friendly establishment.

The Arancine used to be top, however, they're not anymore. I did not buy any Arancine in Buongiorno Italia for a while, and today I have got 6 but unfortunately, they were a huge disappointment. Basically, they were balls of rice with 5% ragù (meat). I understand that the cost of production is rising due to inflation, but scamming clients with such a poor product is basically an insult to Italian culture. You just lost a client.

Went in for the first time after hearing good reviews. Great selection of food in there - I got a range of foods from the deli counter and the shelves which were all high quality and tasty. However, the experience wasn’t enjoyable. The man (presumably owner) wasn’t particularly welcoming and he started shouting at his young worker right in front of everyone. It just made me feel sorry for the poor kid and I wanted to be out the shop as soon as possible. There’s no excuse for acting like that in front of customers. Friendly, welcoming service goes a long way with me, and unfortunately my only experience with this place has put me off. Lovely prosciutto, but bad customer service doesn’t make up for that.

Popped in this morning to buy some Crodini and Pear juices. Decided to try a couple of cannoli and sfogliette ( sweet pastries). The filling inside both was hard - I can only deduce that these were a few days old. Very disappointing as the shop is a little treasure trove of Italian bounty.

Wow, what a find!!! Being using another deli for a number of years now but just that little bit further away, so finding Buongiorno Italia in St. Albans is a real result! A real authentic deli situated just a stones throw from the city centre, Italy has the perfect location in Lattimore Road. On entering, the authentic Italian Coffee aroma hits you and then you are looking at everything that Italy has to offer all under one roof! Whilst shopping for Italian Sausages, Mortadella, Pasta and Italian Tomatoes of course we came out with much more including freshly made ciabatta's (omg) unbelievable! So, all I can say it we have found you and we will be back GRAZIE

I should not be telling you about this place so that it does not become more popular than it is. Whether you want authentic Italian produce or just a dam fine cup of coffee ( or other refreshments) and a bite to eat this place is brilliant The paninis are especially something to savour and at a very reasonable price. Having said this it would be worth frequenting a local, unique store to support the business. It will become ever so more popular when the new development of flats and apartments is completed on the London Road. Up and coming area.

I've been a regular customer for a number of years, and I love the wide range of products and the sensible prices. It was originally founded to serve our local Italian community and was a no nonsense local shop that invariably had a queue out of the door. It has diversified and smartened up under the management of the founders son, but hasn't lost sight of all the things that made it great. It still serves the Italian community and it's a great place to buy staples such as pasta as well as the more exotic deli items.The coffees and lunches follow the same high standards, I only wish it was possible for there to be more sitting space.

Despite having lived in St Albans for over 30 years, I went to this deli for the first time this week. I wish I'd visited it before. I love the way the staff leave you to look round without being pestered at all but are happy to answer any questions or help you choose if you need help. The range of food is amazing and I shall definitely be visiting again soon. There are some little tables where you can have a bite to eat and drink some lovely wine too! Their deli boards look delicious and if I hadn't just eaten I would have had one. I can highly recommend the Terranto Amaretto they sell in there - a superb liqueur, and the Provolone Piccante cheese. We haven't tried the rest of the items we bought yet but I'm sure they'll be just as good!
