Very friendly people, nothing too much trouble. Take our son's dog and they make a fuss of him. Delicious vegan cake available if you ask. Also do dairy free milk alternatives for coffee.

Although not labelled opening hours for dinner, Anthony opened up the restaurant just for us,seeing us outside at the window (never happened to me in my whole life)and we had some really delicious authentic Italian food.Main and desert only as we we’re slightly rushed for old town theatre just round the corner.Coffee was fantastic too and we are so pleased to find this quality restaurant just round the corner.Will be going back-thank you

Friendliest cafe in town. Staff are all lovely. Has a beautiful, quiet and peaceful room upstairs if you are looking for a little escape. Beats the ‘trendy’ independent cafes in the old town and all the greasy spoons and chains in Marlowes, you’ll find a far better ambience in here. Highly recommend you pop in if in the old town or going to the park. Although I’ve not eaten here yet, I just call in for coffee the food does look delicious and it’s all very reasonably priced as are the drinks.

I'd only heard really positive stuff about the cafe and decided to take my 7 year old for lunch. The place was empty with just one other person in the cafe. I ordered a cheese and ham sandwich for my daughter and Arancini and a Regular Mocha for myself. After about 10 minutes the Ham and Cheese sandwich arrived and the waitress asked if she could get us anything else. I reminded her about the Mocha and the Arancini. 5 minutes plater the staff called across to me to ask what size Mocha I had ordered, I was surprised as I had already paid so surely they should have this information. The Mocha then arrived. We waited another 20 minutes before the Arancini arrived. It was not Arancini balls as listed on the menu but a weird cone shaped Arancini. I cut into the Arancini but the knife only got a 3rd of the way down before hitting a rock hard section. When I moved the rice out of the way I found a completely frozen block of sausage meat. I couldnt believe how long it had taken to be served this. I took the plate back up to the counter where I was offered a replacement. I refused a replacement stating I cannot wait another 20 minutes (My car parking was due to expire). I was advised that it could be cooked in a "special" way so that it would not take as long, I rejected this and asked if I could just have a Cheese and Ham sandwich as a replacement. I eventually got my sandwich and rushed this down so we could get back to our car in time. Whilst the staff were extremely polite I was not offered anything such as a complimentary coffee to go with my food (as I had drunk my coffee circa 30 minutes before I eventually ate). What we did end up eating was very enjoyable and the Mocha was extremely good however left very disappointed with the whole experience and feel like I just caught the place on an off day.

We ordered an arancini with spinach and cheese, focacia with prosciutto and a focaccia with mortadella. We also tried the Italian cake, lemon pastry and a mint ice cream. All delicious. I would definitely be returning.

Love this place! This is just what Hemel needed - somewhere new and interesting. The upstairs is perfect for functions or meetings - so tranquil and quiet. This is the new local hang out for my colleagues and I! Really recommend it.

Good coffee, great ambience. I enjoyed the ice cream too! It looks small from the outside, but there is plenty more seating upstairs. Well worth a return visit.

Lacking in Xmas atmosphere, no decorations upstairs and a few lights across the ceiling downstairs. Food was average although not as good as the other Italian in Tring. Attentive service.

Nothing bad to say about this place…we went for lunch on a Sunday and my only downside was that it wasn’t busier which I found shocking given what a fab experience we had. More people should definitely go here! We entered the restaurant and they immediately asked us if we’d like to sit inside or outside and as it was a sunny day we chose to go outside in their patio area which was beautiful, and better still well shaded where we sat so not too hot or bright where we sat. I’m sure it’s lovely sitting outside on a summer evening too. The ambience all round is nice, with pretty furnishings and touches and I’m sure this is a nice place to enjoy a drink or cocktail too. The service was exceptional here. My wife was in early stages of her pregnancy here and understandably nervous about what she could or couldn’t eat. The super helpful waitress went through the whole menu with my wife to explain what she couldn’t have or what dishes could be adapted by the chef. As this was my birthday meal, this extra effort to put my wife at ease was superb. More importantly the food we had was delicious…my wife enjoyed a pizza that was adapted to be pregnancy safe and I had the very generous portion of salmon caponata which was delicious. The glass of primitivo red was fruity and pleasant and matched well with the caponata sauce (which was also lovely as it wasn’t overly olive driven in flavour). We shared a cute and yummy lemon posset for dessert. Overall £70-ish including a tip was well worth the money and I’d highly recommend this restaurant which is also housed in a pretty building in the centre of string. We will be back!

We had a lovely meal here. I had the bruschetta (gluten free) and the penne. The bruschetta was so fresh and delicious!!
