The best restaurants in United Kingdom serving Italian food

Last month we spent 2 nights at the Fire Pit campsite celebrating a friend’s 40th birthday (12 families so we had the whole campsite) - It was AMAZING. Positives: • The layout of the site is perfect for a big group. • There is a massive tent at the back of the field (with front and back doors, oven, indoor firepit, solar power, and a mezzanine floor with a double bed). It was very impressive. • We stayed in one of several bell tents (great size, set up with 4 mattresses / including bedding). There was a trolley cart to help move stuff to and from cars. • There was loads of space for friends who brought their own tents / trailer tents /campervans. • A big Fire Pit is central to the camp, and we sat around it for hours. • Amenities: 3 toilets (I was pleasantly surprised), 1 shower, and a kitchen area (fridge, kettle, sink etc…). • We booked the warehouse for a party on Saturday night. There is a bar (bring your own booze), pool table, dance area / stages, disco ball, big speaker (connects to a phone), and loads of varied seating areas. It was a great space. • We had Wi-Fi in the warehouse (not the camping area). • For the kids: playing / climbing areas and the bus. Whoever came up with the idea of putting an old double decker bus in the middle of a campsite is a genius! They spent hours playing in it. They embraced being outside and exploring the grounds. • A pizza oven is available (we had food delivered but it was great to have a choice). • The camp is designed to be as ecofriendly / sustainable as possible (big positive) • B&P live in the grounds and looked after us well. They were amazing (extra special thanks from me). My only (slightly) negative comment was the wooden bases for our beds. We found them very uncomfortable the first night. So, we removed them and put our mattresses on the tent floor. The second night was much more comfortable. Basically, the camp had everything we need, and we can’t wait to go back. We loved every second of it. Dylan

Just had a lovely meal here. Food was fantastic, service was great. Am looking forward to coming back to try something else on the menu!

Excellent pizzas at Freshwater Bay, eaten by the Travelling Tavern on a sunny evening. Difficult to beat! Great price too. Highly recommended.

Locale grazioso, difficile el trovare perché all interno di un giardino. I piatti un po’ deludenti. Porzioni piccole e prezzi altissimi Bonito lugar, difícil de encontrar porque está dentro de un jardín. Los platos son un poco decepcionantes. Pequeñas porciones y precios muy altos

Website doesn't exist, and no comments since May 2019. Must be shortest lived restaurant ever ! Anyone been there ?

SHORT REVIEW: bland & greasy pizzas although cheap, imagine a homemade pizzas with no herbs then pour a pint of oil over it = Pizza Geeks. I wouldn’t recommend. Waiter should have some lessons in how to smile..very miserable lady.

Delicious fresh pizza, and offer home delivery, but quite expensive. The make your own is quite good value. Usually quick delivery. Quite traditional, thin crust, nice tomato sauce and not swimming in oily cheese. Just the right balance

I use a powerchair and double checked that they had a ramp before going - when it was patisserie valerie, they had a sturdy wooden ramp for people who needed it so i thought it would be this one. I was very disappointed as it was a thick rubber mat which i would definitely not call a ramp! The owner then came over and brought two square wooden boards which raised the height some more and i managed to enter the cafe. I found the staff were so lovely, did whatever they could to help me - had a table booked with plenty of space & moved chairs out of the way for me. I personally wouldn't rate the food but that could be because of what i chose (£5.50 for 1 large-ish arrancini...). Food was served quick and hot which was good - my friend had chips which i stole a few and i will admit, were pretty good. Sometimes i wonder about places that have huge menu's, how can they make sure quality is always amazing when you have a burger to pasta to a japanese breakfast to spanish food etc... I'd like to try something of the dessert counter next time and please, i really am suggesting on behalf of anybody with mobility issues/buggies, please invest in a proper metal ramp. It will be so appreciated i can promise you that.

Nunca antes había probado la pizza de masa fermentada, así que estaba un poco escéptico, pero estaba felizmente sorprendido, ¡fue increíble! Los sabores eran fenomenales incluso para una Margherita (aburrida lo sé.) El personal era igual de bueno y obtuvimos mucha comida por nuestro dinero del que nunca te quejas. Esperamos volver!

The food is authentic, I had pasta with prawns, asparagus & tomato. The sauce was tasty, with a slight touch of spice, the accompanying salad was large, fresh & splashed with high quality olive oil ... quite underpriced at £2.95. We ordered a bottle of wine and it was not in the fridge so the waiter brought another opened bottle 3/4 full and served t to us without charge. My son had chicken & mushroom tagliatelle, large servings great price (under £10) and excellent quality. Couldn't begin to fit in a dessert after such ample and full flavoured dishes. And if that wasn't good enough, we were given a small Lemoncello free of charge to top off a delightful meal. Highly recommended.

I was in the area and ate there with my family . The food is great, and hospitality is spot on. I would recommend the place to all.

We have been to 2 Beeches Avenue several times and have always had a great experience. Whether it has been for the wonderful choice of freshly made food or just a coffee (or glass of wine), we have never been disappointed. The staff are always friendly and in the sunshine, the tables outside are a wonderful place to sit.

We had a good bottle of Barolo red wine, interesting starters, large main courses, mine was chicken with mushroom sauce. The highlight was the delicious desserts, chcolate tiramisu and a cheesecake with a crunchy topping.

Gran variedad de comida, atendiendo a todas las necesidades, para un lugar pequeño. Muy razonable precio. Limpio. El personal es muy amable y acogedor. Equipo de marido y mujer. No te decepciones. Ve allí la próxima vez que estés sobre Smithfield. No puedo recomendar lo suficiente.
