Sicool Food Café & Bar in Guildford

Popped in for a strong Italian coffee, sat outside to enjoy fresh air. Service with a smile and fair price.

If the sun is shining, grab a seat outside. It's a lovely coffee shop with very nice coffee and nice aracini

Could be better upstairs.....seating not all that good .

Tasty food, friendly staff and tucked down a nice side street away from the noises of town. One of the best cafés in town and independent. The Italian hot chocolate is amazing

Wonderful arancini!! We always enjoy stopping in to visit this cafe!

A great place tucked away up a side street. Food and drinks are all very good, with great Italian pastry. Nice to see an independent coffee shop doing well and they deserve it, so much better than all the chains that are taking over.

A delightful find off the busy Guildford High Street. Belgian chocolate donut is to die for, but don't tell anyone 😉

Good coffee, great service, and nice setting.

Really nice food, friendly staff and a nice seating area outside

A cute tucked away coffee shop. Love their coffee and Italian pastries.

Food is alright but the place is extremely dirty. The service is bad and it takes them 10 minutes to heat up a panini on a slow day. Sorry but if you came to the UK to pull tricks on people and try to only make profit and not even trying to provide a mediocre experience, then nothing good awaits your business.

Enjoyed a hot sandwich and cannoli. The sandwich had lovely ingredients, but think it was microwaved. So bread was chewy and filling was nuclear hot, not so nice. Cannoli's I always love. It was authentic, but the shell was clearly old - it crumbled and was soft, inside was dryer that should be. Nice flavour though. Maybe I caught on a bad day, but was disappointed with food that looked amazing, but didn't taste so great.

Nice little coffee house, friendly staff. It is a nice treat to visit an independent cafe. Grate outdoor seating. A true gem

Their Italian hot chocolate is heaven sent

Lovely cafe tucked away down an alleyway. Easily missed. Coffee was exceptional and the food all looked delicious. Will return when in the area.

Absolute gem of a place. Amazing coffee, superb desserts and the lasagne in particular is delicious. Really lovely staff and outdoor seating area.

The food was fine. A bit overhyped from the reviews. I had the pistachio cannoli, Belgian chocolate donut and the pistachio cornetto. I could barely taste the pistachio in the cannoli. The pistachio in the cornetto was too sweet , and jam like. I didn't quite understand what it was trying to be. The Belgian chocolate in the donut was delicious but the donut itself tasted like it was 3 days old. The service and atmosphere was great though. But yeah, the food is overhyped

Excellent Aperol Spritz, variety of snacks . Love this place

Very good sandwiches and outstanding coffee in a little covered outdoor space. Charming and friendly place just off the high street. Deserts very tempting too... Dog friendly.

A very unassuming exterior but great coffee, tea and cakes.

Hard to find, but lovely cafe. Specialising in Sicilian food. Well worth a visit .

Great hot chocolate and nice outdoor seating area.

Delicious arancini. Lovely little place. A great find.

Lovely little covered out door area luckily it wasn’t to cold lovely sandwiches and coffee and mini pastries. Went back in and purchased some fresh cannoli for later. All the staff really lovely and genuine Italian

What a hidden gem, the coffee is truly one of the best in Guildford and the pastries all looked absolutely divine!

Wow what a find in Guildford. We only dropped in today as we saw a sign on the high street, had no idea it was there. The coffee and cannolo was fantastic. I am looking forward to going back.

Lovely place, everything is great, food, staff, atmosphere, service. Love it.

Fabulous Italian inspired Street Cafe up a tiny side street in Guildford. Food and setting is fantastic- try the brownie which is outrageous 😋

Amazing hidden gem in Guildford. Great selection of desserts and sandwiches, my favourite place to get a little rest after shopping, as they can make a proper cappuccino! Also my nearly 4 years old loves that place. Friendly staff, quick service!

Absolutely fantastic Italian food! Would definitely recommend coming here if you are in Guildford!

Lovely italien coffee Shop serving Illy frozen coffee as well. They have also a good selection of paninis, Italien doughnuts, arancinis and more. When the weather is good you can enjoy your coffee and snack outdoors as they have plenty of seats.

Great off the road location, lovely people. We went twice in one day.

Damask and off the high street. Popular with a decent selection on menu.

Had an arancini, coffee, and cake. All delicious, will definitely be coming back.

Authentic Sicilian food, sandwiches, cakes, cannoli, lasagne - all homemade each day. And lots of dairy free/vegan options too which is great!

Lovely coffee, outside area, middle of town

The best hot chocolate you’ll ever have!! The italian version makes it thicker and it is just WOW. I drive over an hour just to visit this shop and buy their hot chocolate

Friendly staff, lovely atmosphere! Authentic Italian food, from panini to arancine, lasagna and a vast variety of sweets! Illy coffee gives a nice and distintive touch to all their coffees. The covered outside area made by pallets and plants gives to the place a vibrant vibe! Enjoy!

The food here is astonishingly good. The chicken pesto is amazing. Also they have now started doing a lasagna which is epic

Finally I found my favourite coffee in the town.😍 The staff is always excellent and they make attention for everyone. Amazing Italian cookies you have to try.🍪

Amazing service, Amazing People, Amazing Food.

Lovely place for a coffee and to sit outdoors. The Mocha is delicious. Staff are friendly and the service is great.

Great friendly service and good coffee. Lovely place to sit outside for a coffee.

Pretty location. Friendly staff. Food looked fresh and tasty.

Lovely café in Guildford, just one suggestion as a Sicilian , i would put the ricotta in the cannolo when the customer orders it as the cannolo remains crunchy. Otherwise all good the coffee was excellent 👌👍

Love this place. Been coming for a while now. Best coffee in Guildford. Love the pistachio doughnut... 😋😋

Our favourite cafe in Guildford!

Best coffee I have had in Guildford hands down.

Cute little, hidden away cafe with a really nice and spacious outside sitting area. I can imagine it being such a good vibe during spring / summer ☀️ ! Only had a cappuccino but it was v nice. Will come back soon to try out the pastries next time!

Absolutely adorable place, food is delicious and you'll feel cozy and relaxed 👍😁

Best hot chocolate in Guildford

Delicious sandwich and very good coffee, perfect lunch fuel. Outside covered seating perfect to watch a rainy day from, and a delightful lack of pushchairs for a Guildford cafe! Can't wait to go back and try the cake :)

Real Italian bar... With UK prices

This place is so welcoming and lovely! Tucked away up a little alley off the high street it’s nowhere near as well known as it should be! The staff always have a smile on their face and nothing is ever too much. They have an amazing selection of traditional food and a lot of options with regards to drinks, hot AND cold! The coffee they use is much much nicer than any of the other mainstream companies in Guildford. I look forward to my iced coffees in the mornings during the week and will continue to keep supporting small independent businesses.

Great coffee, gorgeous Arancini and sandwiches. Our go to place for lunch.

This is our regular Saturday treat. We love it so much, the drinks are excellent. My husband tells me the food is fantastic, but there's only choc brownie that is gluten free so I can't eat there. I don't care, I am happy with coffee! Xx

Even on a rainy day, a latte and pistachio doughnut brings a little sunshine 🌞

Italian style hot chocolate is deliciously decadent

Good cafe, but few seats inside. Seating outside in the rains and British weather. It's just too cold to enjoy the lovely hot chocolate. Decent sandwiches and sicilian treats. Fast food on the go only.

Best real Italian coffee in town. Grandi!

Super miejsce z dała od zgiełku głównej ulicy Pyszne sycylijskie arancino kawa super słodycze nie do przejedzenia Atmosfera i obsługa na 6 a nie 5 gwiazdek Moje ulubione w Guildford The best italian place in Guildford Exellent food amazing service I love it ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

3 mesi per trovare un caffè fatto a modo. Italiani <3

A lovely Sicilian cafe with a cracking selection of sandwiches and great coffee! The staff are friendly and they have a cute little seating area out front that is covered... Pop in if you are in town!

Great location, friendly staff and nice Sicilian food such as Cannoli. The coffee is however fairly average/weak and is the only thing in the way of a 5* review.

Closed for holidays! Reopens 28/Aug/2022

This is a hidden gem. Down a side alley with outdoor, under cover seating. Food was delicious- recommend the ham and mozzarella panini. Coffee was lovely and hot. Service was great too. Highly recommend.

Last Saturday I was in Giuldford with my son, who lives in London, and we tried the products of this café ... Perfect cannoli and arancini, with the right ingredients! Excellent coffee cream too! Thank you so much!

Hidden gem. A lovely outside space for coffee. central, but far enough off the High St to be peaceful. We were visited by a ronin several times, looking for crumbs.

A hidden gem in Guildford! Only recently discovered it and they do delicious coffees, sweet treats and much more! Lovely and friendly staff, well worth a visit! Great hidden spot away from the high street.

First time visit I bought 2 cannoli they were absolutely delicious 😋 very nice place the food looks fantastic will certainly go again

Love it!!! The best place in Guildford! Coffee tastes amazing and the pastries are delicious!

Great espresso and arancini. Pretty good no frills service.

Super cute little coffee shop. I got a mocha with cream and loved it. I also got a chocolate donut and really enjoyed it. We sat outside and enjoyed the sun.

Great little Italian café tucked away from Guildford High Street! Friendly staff, excellent coffee and delicious sweet treats - would highly recommend the pistachio doughnut. Decent outdoor seating and sandwiches too. Will return often

This café is situated in a quiet side street to the High Street. It has plenty of outdoor seating, interestingly all made of discarded pallets. Service was friendly and although there was not a huge choice of cakes, what we got was very good.

Perfection. A fantastic little independent coffee shop tucked away up a small alley off Guildford hight street. Really good coffee, excellent food (pistachio cannoli a particular highlight!), a lovely outdoor seating area, and really friendly management/staff. One of the best coffee shops I've found anywhere. Will definitely be back next time I'm in Guildford.

the absolute best coffee in guildford!! and now the deli !!Wow you have to try the pasta sauce absolutely amazing and given the advice of the guy in shop we tried the fish one, try it and you’ll be back for more😊😊

Good food, nice set up, friendly people, coffee delicious.

In Guildford for the day and was looking for a quick bite to eat. Usually go the the restaurant at the top of the House of Fraser (which is now a tacky pink princess boudoir) so looking for somewhere new. The staff here are really friendly and relaxed. Coffee excellent and the rice balls delicious. Portions generous and clean and fast service with a definite smile. Will return.

Lovely little Italian bar/cafe - it almost feel like you are in continental Europe! Lovely staff and drinks/food!

Surprise find. Tucked away delicious food and coffee.

Stepping off the bustle of the high street into the quite of The Shambles and being transported to little Italy 🇮🇹 with lovely coffee and authentic sweet treats it was a welcome break from my day.

Thoroughly enjoyed our coffee and cannolo today! Thank you!! This was our first visit but we'll be back!

Delicious arrachini, donuts, coffee. Would recommend for light lunch over any coffee shop/cafe in town.

Dropped in here for coffee - its a great place and a good atmosphere - mostly outside with the majority of the seats undercover - we liked the use of pallets as seats and tables - good to see recycling in action - it works a lot better than it sounds - there are cushions on top. We had very tasty coffee and hot choc and the cakes were great as well - but a little on the pricy side. Quick and friendly service - seems like lots of regulars there as well which is good to see. Definately be back

I'm my humble opinion, probably the best independent cafe in Guildford. The coffee is very good and the staff are friendly. Plenty of covered outside seating available. Toasted sandwiches to die for!

Best coffee, excellent food and lovely outdoor seating area.. owner is very friendly as well

Great coffe, nice service and fantastic pistachio cake!

Delicious food. Great for a quick lunch. Lovely to have a choice of authentic Italian food. Friendly staff too. Recommended

Lovely and friendly place to enjoy a good coffee and over all a fantastic cannoli and arancini. While we were enjoying a good coffee with a fantastic cannoli, we decided to take away two different type of focaccia for lunch which were also very good. Dog friendly place too. Surely a place were to go back when in town !

We had lunch at this delightful Sicilian cafe. The owners/staff were extremely friendly: the food was great; the covered outside seating area a lovely place in which to partake of one's lunch. If we lived in Guildford instead of hundreds of kilometers away, Sicool Food Cafe would most certainly be on our list of regular eateries.

I took my daughter out for the afternoon and she pointed me to Sicool, first impressions were very good but the food was not great, I had mozzarella and tomato calzone, or should I say a mozzarella calzone no tomato! I complained and they replaced it but the second one was just as bad. No taste at all. No tomatoes. !

I've been to Sicool quite a few times, and it's one of my favourite places to get a relatively quick lunch in Guildford. Authentic Sicilian street food, with a great collection of San Pellegrino cans. The arancini is always a treat, as is the breaded...

This is a hidden gem in Guildford. They serve the best coffee and their desserts are off the charts!

Lovely little Cafe in a quiet side street off Guildford High Street. Plenty of comfortable outside seating, very good coffee and a delicious assortment of snacks/meals. Very attentive staff. Absolutely delightful 😊

lovely little café, a great find for Guildford we had cannoli and coffee. A very peaceful spot and service was excellent

Nice little place but the toastie was a bit meh (bread didn't feel very fresh) and arancini was luke warm rather than hot or cold which was strange. I'd give them another go but I'd hope for better...

Nice ambience, good vibe, the canolo is amazing, and the coffee is good. , you can also try the ice coffee
