The best restaurants serving Italian food in East of England

Me and my partner came here for a romantic dinner, I've ordered pizza quattro stagioni, Amazing, my boyfriend has ordered linguine alla sarda😋 I'm very happy that they are open again, definitely we will be back!!!

Nice Christmas lunch with singer. But plates and food cold; Turkey seemed pre-sliced (rather roasted whole on premises). Salmon portions varied enormously. Coffee brought in a mug (no sugar or milk jugs). Singer noisy during meal and then didn’t sing between courses or at the end of the meal - strange timing. Friendly staff but seemed inexperienced. Hard to park.

If you like your coffee don’t come here, you’ll be disappointed. This place presents itself as a proper coffee place, with 5 options of roast and origin and such. But what’s the point when all the espresso is under-extracted and the Americano tastes like dishwater? Cappuccino is the same: the coffee flavour is completely lost in the milk. And what kind of coffee specialist only serves in paper cups, even for sit-in?

I smelt this delicatessen before I walked through the door and was transported backed to my trip to Italy. Everything in the store looked so inviting and I ended up buying from the deli the olives artichokes and some of the pastries. I’m excited to take them home and try them the owner of the storehad the most wonderful Italian accent and really made us feel very welcome in his store. I would really recommend this experience and I look forward to sharing the food that I bought with my friends and family.

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

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

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.

We came here for the first time for my birthday, and had three courses. We loved all six dishes - bruschetta and napoletano for starters, lasagna and bucatini puttanesca for mains, and cannoli for afters. There were so many herbs. We also shared a bottle of nero davola. The venue is quite small and, although we had booked, we had to wait a while for the food to arrive. But that was fine. But I would definitely recommend booking.

Ordered delivery and showed up promptly. The best pizzas I've had in years. Chicken milanese was excellent. Highly recommended. Will definitely be ordering again 👌

Personal amable, muy acogedor. Cómodas mesas y sillas. Bonito lugar para desayunar o almorzar con tus amigos o familiares! Precios muy razonables! He pedido sopa de pollo que era absolutamente delicioso 🥹 Café es delicioso 🤤 Me encanta este lugar! Sin duda volveremos de nuevo!

I have been eating at fireaway pizza in the Marlowes Hemel Hempstead for a while now and I have to say they are the best pizza restaurant that I have tried in the town. The pizzas are amazing and aunthic always piping hot. The staff are very friendly and great to chat too. Other pizza restaurants that I have tried before change so much more and put on deals that make you want to go back yet are overpriced to start with so you are not actually making any saving. Fireaway charge you a good price for great service and great food. Thank you Fireaway.

Called here with a friend whilst having work done on car. Ordered full English with tea and coffee. Served without delay. Fantastic selection on the plate + 2 rounds of toast. Brilliant!

I popped into this dusty cafe to buy a sandwich, as I was at the railway arms opposite, the men who I assume work here as they were sat there all afternoon, did not even look up from what they were doing to ask if I needed help, on the counter were two poor looking croissants on a cake stand and absolutely nothing else! The fridge was full of cold drinks! Anyway I left as staff are rude or maybe it was because I was a woman and thought it was beneath them to ask if there was anything I wanted. The place is filthy how it scraped 3 stars on hygiene is beyond me, I wouldn't have given it -3 stars! Do not expect to get food here! Probably a front for something else!
