Sips & Bites in Richmond upon Thames

El café es el mejor que he probado, la comida es deliciosa y una gran variedad de productos para comprar. Nuestras oficinas se trasladaron al final de la calle de Sips and Bites. Es algo bueno para mi cuenta bancaria. Solo estoy en la oficina una vez a la semana en este momento, ¡ya que podría gastar todo mi dinero aquí!

El servicio fue flojo, lento y desinteresado. El personal parecía inexperto e incapaz de manejar órdenes simples. Cuando finalmente llegó la comida, la habían preparado rápidamente, hacía frío y el tamaño de las porciones era pequeño. Vi como agarraban desinteresadamente los comestibles comprados a Tesco y los abofetearon. La ensalada (comprada en Tesco) ni siquiera fue sazonada. 1 tostada de aguacate para 6? ! ¡También se olvidaron de mi pedido de café y me dejaron esperando un Americano durante 30 minutos! Ninguna disculpa dada tampoco. Podría haber hecho todo esto en casa sin la etiqueta de precio 18 para tostadas, aguacate y huevos. Tan vago y tan innecesario. Es una pena desde la primera vez que visité este café, era encantador y el servicio fue excepcional. Conclusión: simplemente no les importa lo suficiente.

Estuve allí ayer alrededor de las 12, el tipo barbudo era muy amable y dulce, y la comida era realmente deliciosa. Definitivamente regresaré la próxima vez que esté en Londres.

Très bon sandwich à l'avocat, un cadre tranquille pour se poser pour le déjeuner, un café italien, accueil très sympathique, je recommande!

Encantador, gran parada para café y croissants! El personal siempre amable y una gran selección de cosas para el almuerzo y el desayuno!

....offering excellent coffee and wines, pastries and other light eats for brekkie and lunch, and even better personal service. A great asset for the neighborhood.

Nice to have an independent cafe selling good coffee and tasty cakes. Also went for lunch which was pleasant.

Tuvimos una velada encantadora y encantadora la noche pasada en este gran Indipendiente local donde comimos algunas carnes curadas italianas muy sabrosas, recién cortadas, junto con la mozzarella de búfala más fresca para comenzar, seguida de una encantadora selección de parmigianas de berenjena y generosos escalopes de pollo Grandes vinos y zumos también, excelentes postres, todos servidos con una gran sonrisa y pasión por el personal profesional. La música también fue genial!

Hemos visitado varias veces para tomar una copa y hemos querido llevar a nuestra familia a cenar. Reservé la mesa unas semanas antes para el 22 y me di cuenta a principios de esta semana que iba a haber música en vivo. Envié un correo electrónico para cancelar debido a que mis padres mayores estaban presentes, pero me aseguraron que no sería intrusivo, así que mantuve la reserva.A pesar de mis reservas sobre el ruido, llegamos para descubrir que nos habían colocado directamente frente a la música en vivo. Aunque los caballeros eran muy buenos, usaban un amplificador y un micrófono, por lo que eran bastante fuertes.Además, la comida estaba por debajo de la media. Tres escalopes de pollo estaban fríos. Mi madre no estaba completamente segura de lo que había pedido ya que no había menús y la camarera leyó rápidamente las opciones (mientras la banda tocaba).Nos fuimos mientras la banda estaba en su descanso. Muy decepcionado y ligeramente sorprendido por la factura de 140 (incluido 5 cada uno para la música).Nos gustaría (y hemos sido) clientes habituales ya que vivimos cerca, pero lamentablemente nuestra experiencia de esta noche ha significado que los restaurantes y pubs de mejor valor ahora reciban nuestra costumbre.

Dad and I went there today and had some amazing date and walnut cake. It was delicious and the hot chocolate and coffee were great too! This is a lovely cosy Italian deli who focus on great food ..

Giorgio and Salvatore have created a great ‘local’, serving consistently excellent coffee, pastries, antipasti, etc., with great charm and a warm welcome to regulars and drop-ins alike. A great gift to the neighborhood. Well done.

I have passed by many a time but never had the time to pop in! What can I say but wow! From the service, staff, food and general ambience! Don’t wait any longer go try!

My wife and wife have been daily customers of Sips and Bites since this cosy, friendly and warm cafe was opened ca six years ago by the two young Italians Giorgio and Salvatore. Since walking through theirs doors all those years ago we have not had a single poor or mediocre coffee and the service has always been friendly, as if this was our second home. The food is simple but delicious and freshly made. I buy all my wine from their place and I have never been disappionted with the various bottles I have bought. To sum up: best local cafe and best coffee too which comes with my warmest and most heartfelt recommendations. Try it as soon as you have an opportunity and enjoy the Sips and Bites experience.

Very nice like a trip to Italy. The food was very nice but on the pricey side for quick snack Food is all freshly prepared. They also sell a lot of Italian produce. The tables are packed very close together

A very welcome place to warm up after watching the rowing from Hammersmith Bridge. Delighted that our two collie dogs were made equally welcome. Just had a warming coffee and hot chocolate - we were sorry that we’d had lunch already since the food looked great.

Fabulous Italian deli and cafe! Great service from friendly staff and really good food, I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a bite to eat or to buy some great Italian produce!

I absolutely love this place - I visit every time I’m in London. Very friendly, great coffee, tasty food and reasonable prices. And I love the music! They do live music every couple of weeks - blues and jazz - always good.

Delicious food, great coffee and an eclectic playlist. The service is really friendly and at the same time professional... You have to try.. Gustavo

Proper plave whare to test the good itlian food. The coffee was really really well made. The owners and the staff always try to approach you in a friendly way. As a regular costumer, I recomend pop into the shop to have a good start of the day.

He estado allí muchas veces y la expectativa siempre ha sido alcanzado.

Acabo trasladó a la zona estaba realmente emocionado de ver este café cerca, pero después de hoy experiencia no volveré ni recomendar a nadie. Pedí café a donde ir, y la señora con muy mal inglés y actitud malinterpretado la orden y terminamos saliendo y no conseguir nuestro dinero de vuelta. Si ella no hubiera sido tan polémica que hubiera sido un poco más valientes para causar un alboroto. Qué pena. Se van a la cafetería de enfrente, Cucharada en el futuro, que era mucho más acogedor y el café era genial.

Very friendly atmosphere, great food , nice staff. Cannot say anything negative. Plenty of choice on the menus all freshly prepared

Small, but friendly and welcoming little cafe in Barnes. Nice place to meet friends. The couple of tables outside are a nice touch, however, they're right next to a bus stop and a busy road with a relatively narrow pavement! Sit inside!! ; )

Nos pedidos un sandwich mixto y tartas fuente para un almuerzo de negocios. La comida era estupenda, muy sabrosa y que todos disfrutamos.

Visitamos el lugar para el desayuno ligero. No probar la comida buena y la porción fue suficiente. Creo que los ingredientes frescos y de buena calidad. Sin embargo, personalmente me pareció demasiado caro. La amabilidad del personal fue aceptable, pero nada especial.

Si estás en Hammersmith debe detenerse allí.

This is a good place to come and have a great Italian toasted sandwich with good coffee. They also do takeaway Italian good such as lasagne and chicken. Staff are very friendly and helpful.

The owners and staff at this cafe are the main reason I never choose to have coffee anywhere else in the area! They are as friendly as ones own family and appreciate every customer with such warmth. The atmosphere is cosy, the food hearty and authentic, and the service second to none! So long as I live in London, this will be my first choice for coffee, brunch or lunch!

Best italian food in London. Had an amazing burrata along with a jolly glass of wine. Atmosphere is cozy and intimate, but they even find space to have some live gigs as well. It works as a shop also and you can get some really lovely italian products - cheese, wine, pasta, oil etc. Service was super friendly and professional, overall experience - just great. Strongly recommended!

This small local restaurant was a round the corner from where we were staying. Loved their cappuccino and had a lovely breakfast.

Friendly service, delicious food, great coffee and an eclectic playlist. Just what you need on a Sunday morning

Good guys, great spot! This little place has big heart. I use it for all different purposes - to quickly grab a bottle of wine after work, a few fresh food and produce necessities, imported Italian goods, relaxing with a glass of wine and some music, or a quick bite to eat. Always a relaxing and friendly atmosphere. They now run some great local music nights and I have also been to an Italian language class there. All around one of my favourite local spots.

This is one of my locals. Good coffee, friendly owners & tasty food. On Friday & Saturday evenings it's a popular place for an after work glass of wine & a meal. Just a short hop across Hammersmith bridge, it's well worth a visit.

Love this local place. Friendly service, great wine selection and super snacks and treats as the name suggests "Sips & Bites".Great coffee too.

These guys are awesome. Fantastic coffee. Lovely food and wine. Can't be beaten. Definitely worth a little detour to check out

Sips & Bites is an evolving and developing hot spot. Everyday this Barnes local gets better and better redefining the meaning of cafe. Ground Hog Day - definitely not - it will always surprise you with something new and deliciously tempting. Simple but varied menu, fresh and organic food, wonderful coffee, smoothies, juices, excellent snacks, fine wines and even live music. Head to North Barnes for a real Italian treat and remember to take some goodies home as well. This great Barnes local eatery offers it all in a compact and welcoming atmosphere. Enjoy

Great little spot. Recently refurbished. Cool atmosphere with the friendliest of people. Can't fault the coffee and there's always something nice to choose to accompany it!

Very hospital owner, wonderful sandwiches. Definitely recommended, even if you have to move away from your path. It's a place to stop in Barnes!

I often travel to Barnes and I am always on the lookout for great coffee and snacks. Sips & Bites meets my criteria. Friendly Italian staff. Tastiest coffee in Castelnau. Fresh veg, tasty snacks and great service. Pop in during the summer months and enjoy the smoothies. My wife prefers kale. But I enjoy the fruit/ice cream! Well worth a visit if you are in the area! They are expanding and offing more eat in facilities.

The warm welcome, the infectious enthusiasm of Turi and Giorgio coupled with quality food, coffee and service makes you want to go back again and again. You want these two boys to do well. They are charming, know their food and go to great lengths to ensure you feel at home at Sips & Bites.There are always little gems to eat, drinks to try and an ever changing range of artisanal foods and wines from Italy adoring their shelves.If you ever find yourself walking along The Thames tow path in Barnes by Hammersmith Bridge then this is worth the to minute schlep to visit. You will feel fully restored after visiting this place.

The food is very appetising but what I really like is the tiny intimate cafe at the back of the store (3 tables I think) where you can sample the food and wine to the sound of cool jazz and chat with whoever is there. Quite special.

I absolutely love Sips & Bites! They stock a great selection of high end food and also everyday fruit/veg etc. The service is always very friendly and efficient. They also open as a wine bar in the evenings of thurs/fri/sat which is absolutely fantastic!!

What a lovely evening we had in this little piece of Italy in Barnes we stumbled upon. The wine was delicious and matched their amazingly tasty cheese and charcuterie boards perfectly. Such a wonderful place to relax and enjoy an evening. Felt like we'd been swept away on holiday.
