Fritto Italian Street Food & Bakery in Liverpool

Lovely shop spotless, very helpful staff, gorgeous fresh food. Got bolognaise arancini was absolutely lovely and two huge slices of foccacia pizza, a pumkin and sausage one which was nice but very rich the other pizza was a meat salami type and was gorgeous. We also got a plain donut will try filled pistachio one next time, as will definitely be returning as the food and service was fantastic.

Simply fantastic. Siciliano panzerotti was to die for, and the biscotti bomboloni was excellent once home with a mug of coffee. I just need to work out some more reasons to be at the other side of the city! Great value too.

I drive 35 miles to come here at least once a week. One of the best most authentic Italian street food places in England. The food and desserts are incredible. Brilliant place

I cannot put into words how much I love the food from Fritto Only been twice and it's been exceptional both times, lovely staff and the quality of the Arancini and pizza is unreal Nothing I could moan about even if I tried. keep up the great work Fritto!!!!

One of the best street food you can get. I travel all the way from Stoke to get the sandwiches and pizza, the best of the best. The staff is friendly and always welcoming, the shop is nice and clean and the price is very good for what you get. I fell in love with this place and I can’t wait to go back. Definitely recommend it, you will not regret it.

If you haven't tried it.....you need to! Food is freshly made to order. Lots of choice. Highly recommended.

Absolutely exceptional in every possible facet. Friendly staff, fresh, delicious food; and the owner is an absolute gentleman. If you haven't tried it yet, do yourself a favour and check it out.

Fantastic little Italian place, the arancini is honestly to die for

Lovely, mainly takeaway but a few seats. Great food, friendly staff. Came about it by chance, will be revisiting. Italian takeaway at its best.

Fantastic food Excellent value Friendly professional staff Well worth a visit

Lovely Italian place. Really really good food and prices. Had a panzerotti and a bomboloni, both to die for. Will definitely repeat.

Amazing authentic Italian street food! Strongly approved by my Italian mum today ♥️

Honestly just so so delicious. The focaccia is the best I’ve tried & the truffle fries are amazing! The prices are very fair too compared to other similar venues in the city & the portion sizes are perfect 👍

Delicious Italian food canolli my favourite

This place is fabulous. If you can go on a day when a queue around the corner isn't present, you will have the best Italian food of your life. When I first ate here, I went with an Italian who said it is far superior quality than Italy. I'll be able to confirm that soon. Highly recommend getting the panzoroti, bombolino, and the arincini. The staff are welcoming and lovely. The customers tend to be very friendly, a conversation between strangers is always occurring. Definitely worth a visit.

I eat a LOT of sandwiches, and Fritto sells the best of them. The bread is the best, the fillings are the best, the proportions are perfect and the portions are also, the best. The Panzerotti is not greasy, it’s light and airy and full and delicious. The surprise treat for me were the pesto fries, absolutely delicious and fresh tasting. We also took a big bag of amoretti style biscuits away with us and a luxurious (but booze free) portion of tiramisu. Parking is a bit awkward, but do persevere and pop in.

I have been to this fabulous place a few times now, Fritto Italian Street Food, it was an amazing experience from start to finish! The staff is very friendly and patient. They sale these “Panzerottis” which are INCREDIBLY GOOD! 😍 they are my favourites, Im getting closer to get a free one with their points card 🤞🏻 I have also tried their pizzas and desserts and everything is just perfect, everything they do have amazing flavours! I really recommend this place!

Real italian food. Best arancini

Since I began my final year of uni in September I have spent more money than I care to admit in this establishment, and with good reason! Their arancini is to die for (fritto definitely lives up to its namesake) and the tiramisu is divine. Not to mention the wonderful owner and staff- thank you for letting me butcher my A1 Italian and being a ray of sunshine that punctuated my last 9 months here. Grazie mille e tornerò quando sarà possibile 🌞

Outstanding! The best sandwich I have ever eaten.

Just awesome place. Great food and always positive staff.

This is one of our fave restaurants for lunch. The food is freshly made and delicious. We probably treat ourselves once a month, the queues are always out the door but it’s worth the wait. Staff are lovely.

Boss panzo, boss drinks, boss service. Real authentic Italian street food in the heart of Smithdown.

Wow! We were told it was good, and it was even better than we were expecting. Italian street food at its very best. Super delicious, fresh & vibrant. The only thing missing was Italy!

Little Italy in Liverpool! Wow. I missed such flavors. I'm a big fan of Italian food and this place meets all expectations. All food is made on site, you can admire the entire process on Instagram. I already know that this will be my weekly stop. P.S.: we also ate pistachio donuts there, which I didn't have time to take a photo of because I simply devoured them. They were filled to the brim with creamy pistachio filling! Perfect for coffee!🤩😍

Absolutely in love with Fritto, everything that I’ve tried is 10/10! Fritto is a must!

Amazing little place. The food was freshly made with quality ingredients. Very tasty indeed!!

Cozy place... very friendly owner... amazing food... high quality food, fresh and tasty... thanks Luca.

Authentic Italian deli! Service is very friendly & welcoming, great food and fresh everyday. Quite a big menu to select from & drinks too. Coffee was fantastic!

Reminds me of Italy, 100% reccomend.

Absolutely sensational place…I’m just glad I don’t live close or I’d be the size of a house! I’ve visited 6 times now & I’ve loved everything I’ve eaten.

The food is delicious! Authentic Italian, transported us back to our favourite holiday destination straight away! Would 100% recommend

Amazing food and I had my first cannoli today, its was tremendous. I will 100% be returning to this place.

Super suggested. I went there for the first time just for the pictures of good looking and autentic Puglia food. Focaccia e pizza are ready like in Bari!.. I will come back to try panzerotti and arancini!

An absolute gem! Authentic, delicious Italian food - salame panzerotti a genuine 10/10.

Good Italian street food... well done!

The definition of hidden gem. The food is made fresh in store, is varied and delicious. What makes Fritto even better is that the staff are knowledgeable and friendly. A great addition to the city.

This is my absolute favourite place in Liverpool to visit for a lunch time treat. It's well worth joining the queue for delicious fresh food every time. The panzerotti are amazing! We went on Friday for sandwiches. We had the Calebrese and Milanese focaccia...and rosemary fries. Wow! Unreal! The pistachio filled bombelini are fantastic. I couldn't recommend this place highly enough for delicious food at really reasonable prices

Food is amazing...staff are lovely ☺️

Best Food in Liverpool, with the kindest staff 👍🏻

Great place for breakfast or brunch. Staff was super lovely and food absolutely perfect. Will definitely come here if we happen to be in Liverpool again!

If you haven’t tried this place yet..you’re missing out! Lovely food and friendly staff 💐

Though small, this place is a compact diamond with an endless array of Italian treats, cooked fresh and with expertise. The focaccia sandwiches are a must for anyone who enjoys having their dopamine spike.

I come here weekly! Such a lovely owner who really has a passion for food. The arancini is a must! Always changing the flavours and they are made fresh everyday- haven’t had one better since trying them here.

I am a regular and this is hands down the most authentic and tasty Italian street food eatery. More of a takeaway with some space to eat in house. Their sandwiches look like a piece of art in a gallery. Eating them is like consuming a piece of art. So beautiful and yummy. Friendly service and reasonable price.

Amazing and authentic Italian food

Been here a few times, always enjoying the quality food and the friendly owner. Will definitely go back, one of the best street food in Liverpool! Thank you! See you soon!

Mr Fritto is the man!!! Best food in LPool

Original handmade south italian Foods

We visited Fritto today for the first time as it was requested by a family member for his birthday get together. We were meant to confirm our order yesterday but as per the norm we were not organised enough!!! Luckily Luca of Fritto was very understanding despite the order being a large order. Luca and his team went above and beyond to accommodate us to which we all say THANK YOU! The food here is absolutely AMAZING! I HAVE NEVER TASTED PIZZA LIKE IT!! We had a fairly large selection from the menu and the quality of the food is first class. It's fresh ingredients, made with love and attention and cooked freshly are simply devine and make you feel that you are getting a real taste of Italy. We can honestly say we are hooked new customers and we can't wait to try the rest of the menu. Luca and his team really are brilliant!! They truly are fantastic for accommodating us especially as we didn't give the gentleman enough notice of our order but they did everything the possibly could to make our family birthday bash a good one! Our food was superb with just enough left overs for lunch tomorrow. Not one complaint from anyone, a rarity in our family, I can assure you! THIS IS THE BEST ITALIAN STREET FOOD IN LIVERPOOL. THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH FOR EVERYTHING!!

Went today, got the Prosciutto and the margherita slice. Haven't been in 2 years and it's somehow better than it was before. The food is very reminiscent of Naples. Questo e la Cappella Sistina di panzerotti!

Amazing food. Real quality at a reasonable price. Arancini was one of the best I have had. We will be back

Without no doubt 5 star place...everything taste amazing,...proper food made with love...super delicious plus very nice staff...

Amazing food! I had their panzerottis since outside UoL, and had a visit today to have a try of different foods (panzerotti included of course). Delicious and the quality is always top notch.

Excellent Italian food in English land

Very beautiful place nice food and lovely staff

Proper Italian food. Highly recommended!

Lovely fresh authentic Italian food.

Wonderful food!! Every type of food is delicious .It will definitely remind you of coming back again.

I have tried almost all items on the menu and every single one is exceptional quality - really fresh, delicious food, incredible flavours prepared with such skill and care. Someone asked for a recommendation of what to buy when I went in today and the genuine answer is EVERYTHING you can possibly fit in. Definitely the best panzerotti, sandwiches, arancini, pizza slices, amaretti, bomboloni, bread... Like I say, the food is top notch and it's a lovely shop, ran by the best people. Our favourite spot in Liverpool.

Personal amable, comida rica y a buen precio, lo recomiendo!

Oh my GOODNESS. Just incredible. Went in for a slice of focaccia and was tempted by the sights and smells - left with enough for the family and zero regrets, everything was delicious! And staff were super lovely and took time to explain all the treats on offer. Go there immediately.

Without a doubt, the best Italian street food in Liverpool: panzerotti, arancini, focaccia... The taste is 100% Italian. The only issue is that you want to eat everything they have! Great job guys!

Quite possibly the best donut (bomboloni here) I have ever put in my face hole! Fluffy and light with a delicious pistachio cream filling which was just as light and delicately flavoured to perfection. Also the leek and pancetta foccaccia; lovely crisp crust to the bread then wonderfully light throughout with lashings of leeks and pancetta, was just the thing on a cold Sunday afternoon. Will most definitely be returning, the tiramisu is next on my hitlist!

Absolutely beautiful food, wonderful service. Fresh and authentic, thank you. Can't reccomended highly enough, go there 🥰

Great little Italian street food place. Food is authentic and gorgeous, prices are great, and the staff are just lovely. Couldn't recommend enough! 🇮🇹🤌🏻

Super leckeres Essen und sehr,sehr nette Bedienung. Ich hatte zum ersten Mal Arancini probiert, und sie waren einfach unglaublich. Entweder mit Fleisch oder auch ohne, beides sehr zu empfehlen. Alles wurde frisch zubereitet. Vielen Dank für diese großartige Erfahrung. Bitte macht weiter so.

THIS PLACE IS AMAZING. Phone your order up in advance or you will be waiting a while at peak times. The foccacia sandwiches are amazing and massive, one will easily serve 2 people. The pistachio doughnut is easily one of the best things i've ever eaten. Will be back.

Gorgeous food!! Definitely a favourite in Liverpool

Nice guys and delicious food. Best food to take out in Liverpool. Great vegan and vegetarian options too!

Great food and always busy. True Italian food.

Busy spot but sexy sexy food. We had the polenta fries which were a lot chunkier than I thought they would be. We also got the panzerotti prosciutto as well as bolognese and ended with a bolognese arancini (delicious). Spot on, will definitely be coming again. Hopefully when there’s pistachio Sfogliatelle!

Authentic Italian food and staff

Had Fritto recommended to me after a discussion about alla antico vinaio and their schiacciata. I had JUST missed the last of the focaccia/schiacciata for the panini so had a panzerotto instead. I think the best way to assess any Italian food vendor is to ask yourself: could I see this place in Italy? And the answer is 100%. Great food with passionate staff and an appreciative customer base. (Next time I go on a Saturday I will ensure I go closer to 12pm to guarantee my panino)

We were at your place today, fantastic flavors, amazing food variations. first visit but not the last, thank you. Grazie mille👌✨️🇮🇹 Köszönjük szépen 🇭🇺

Love this place. It's proper Italian food (coming from an Italian, this says a lot) for a great price. They always have an outstanding selection and the customer service is just amazing!!

LOVE Fritto! Real authentic, great, Italian food. The ingredients are always fresh and great portions. The Panzerotti is my absolute favourite and always cooked to perfection. Couldn't recommend more.

Food is delicious. Cooked to perfection. Friendly service

Brilliant Italian bakery and street food. Such a shame it’s only open Thursday to Friday. Definitely worth going through.

WOW. Wish I lived close to Fritto, there are so many things I want to try. The panzerotti was incredible - crispy edge, soft dough, so much filling! The donutella as well!!! If my stomach could take more I would have ordered so much more food. The chef who was making our food was so friendly! We sat in to eat and the store was busy during lunchtime, lots of people coming in for take-away so it felt very bustling! Fantastic place, couldn't recommend more. Vegan options clearly labelled.

I went this morning as i have been wanting to try for ages . . . . It did not disappoint. We got 2 bomboloni (1chocolate & 1 pistachio) delicious the fluffiest doughnut with lots of filling inside 😍 delicious. We also got a sandwich that was made fresh with barrata, mortadella and pesto delicious. I will becoming back. 👍🏼

I went today in search of a pistachio filled croissant but they were all sold out ☹️ That was my fault as I should have gone in earlier. However, I was not disappointed with what I picked. I got a mortadella, burrata and pistachio sandwich, for dessert, a pistachio bomboloni 😍 Wow! The flavours were something else. Such good quality ingredients! The bomboloni aren’t like regular donuts, they are so much fluffier. The filling was to die for. Sorry for the lack of pictures but I only realised I hadn’t taken any, when I had finished. Can’t wait to go back and try some more things! ❤️

We drive 40 mins to get here. Never disappointed. Even when very busy staff never rush you and are friendly and helpful. Best calzones we have ever had. Everything we have tried has been amazing, still working our way through the menu! Always look forward to our visits here !

Wow we have just found this shop passed this road for only 30 years. What a little Gem. See you when your back from holiday. Caio for now😊

Went to Fritto a couple of weeks ago, and left pleasantly surprised. Panzerotto, arancino, focaccia, bombolone... Everything was so good! Do yourself a favour and run to Fritto for lunch

I can’t stop eating here. The food is absolutely sublime. There’s nothing on the menu I wouldn’t order. If you’re going for the first time you have to try a panzerotti—any type, they’re all amazing. For desert the bombolinis are sensational (especially ones with filling) and so too the mini cannolis. One of the best places to eat in Liverpool. Few things to bear in mind—it gets very busy so place orders in advance. Cash is preferred as you can’t give tips on card; trust me, you’ll be tipping tenners with how good this food is.

So different to any other Italian place I've been, a lovely variety of picky bits from Italy and 90% you won't have had before which adds to the fun

Excellent food and service was great. Because food is made to order, you just need to be patient. However, it is worth the wait

absolute recommendation, would be six stars if possible

Authentic Italian street food, no place like it! 😍

Amazing homemade italian food. Spectacular bomboloni and even better service. Well done

Amazing food, amazing staff & great prices.

Fabulous variety of authentic Italian freshly cooked in site for a quick meal or snacks, the variety are delicious. The price is very affordable, although small it will get you as a regular customer. Absolutely recommend. The owner is friendly and accommodating

I have just been there, food is very very good, there is great atmosphere and great vegetarian options. I had a slice of focaccia pizza (margherita) and I asked for courgette and mushrooms on top, a classic suppli, a vegetarian arancino. I ordered a tiramisu to go and I loved it. My fave Italian place in Liverpool. It’s a real Italian place, highly recommend it!! Grazie, tornerò prestissimo

Amazing, sooooo delicious, authentic and fresh food! First time and Liverpool and discovered this local Italian bakery. The food is exquisite and the service is fantastic so friendly and welcoming. Highly recommend!

I'm writing this review while I'm still in my post-takeaway high (lol). I'll go out on a limb here, and say Fritto is in my top three Liverpool best eats, maybe even top two. What a hidden gem! The vegano panzerotti were unbelievably good, and generously filled. Maybe next time, we'd get it without the vegan cheese, as it was a bit rich, but with mozzarella it was very nice. The fritella was big, airy and delicious. The cannoli was beautifully constructed, and we're yet to have the biscoff cheesecake, but I've no doubt it'll be great. It's clear that the staff really take pride in their cooking and service - to the point where they waited until we arrived, before they cooked our no-zarella sticks, so that we could enjoy them super fresh. Everything else was ready within 10 (or so) minutes. Considering our experience, our order was very reasonably priced.

Wow!!! What amazing food, the quality of ingredients is fab and the flavours are amazing.

Delish If you've ever walked by you will have seen how busy it gets and there's a reason why. I had the arancini from the specials which was fast and very tasty. Can't wait to get into the artisan loaf I bought, smells and feels like real bread for once. Definitely worth checking out

Sensational stuff 🙏🙏🙏 great food to grab n go
