This place definitely worth a visit! It's so lovely with excellent quality italian food and best high products in their store.
Made to feel so welcome and remembered by the owner. We've only been in here a couple of times so far, but we will keep going back. Fresh tasty food, all freshly made to order... no blaring music or crowded noise, just very authentic atmosphere... and great coffee. Tempting Italian food cupboard goodies also on the shelves to purchase. Yummy...
I have known Vincenzo since he ran a tiny shop in Leytonstone High Road. He's always been very friendly, knowledgeable and helpful - and patient with me when I insist on practising my Italian on him. The pastries are to die for, the coffees excellent and the hampers (which you can select yourself) are great presents for foodie friends and family. I look forward to More Italy expanding their range of deli meats and cheeses - my own weakness!
Been a few times to this homely cafe.The coffee is par excellence.The pastries and paninis are fresh and delicious.The owner is very welcoming and happy to share his expertise on Calabrian cuisine and ingredients.If you are interested in Italian cuisine,this is the place to visit and stock up on quality ingredients and treat yourself to the delicious coffee ,pastries,arancinis etc whilst popping in to shop!
The owner Vincenzo and all his staff are excellent. It's worth a visit to taste the authentic Italian food .
Had a lovely coffee in this Italian cafe lovely atmosphere and relaxing .. friendly staff too.. highly recommend
Lovely home made cake, good quality pasta to buy, and a very friendly owner! He also makes his own olive oil from Calabria, which is definitely on my list to try :)
Great deli serving lunches in Wanstead. Very friendly and helpful service. Lovely products- I can definitely recommend the olive oil and passata. They have a great lunch menu, with pasta, soup, salads and sandwiches, and including plenty of vegan options.
A gem on the high street. The owners serve up authentic Italian dishes that are fresh and full of flavour. You can taste the quality of the ingredients, many of which are sourced from the family farm in Italy. Highly recommended.
Great coffee and pastries/sandwiches. Excellent service and good atmosphere.
Popped in for a quick cuppa and sandwich, such a loverly place, food great ,just watching the world go by.
Such a lovely place to relax and enjoy excellent coffee and food - and always made welcome by Vincenzo!

Saying a classic Italian cafe in the heart of Wanstead could be an understatement. If you go to a town outside any of the main and well known Italian cities, and look for an authentic cafe where all the locals go for their daily dose of goodness, that’s *More Italy*.
Coffee, panini, lasagna, pastry, desserts, cured meats, cheeses, pastas, olives oil, Italian goodies… almost everything you can imagine is there. Some of their products are actually made by the owners family in Italy! Just ask if they have it as they have small batches and go fast. I’ve tried their family’s passata and olive oil and they were delicious. Think about that passata made with Italian tomatoes, hand picked and very little preservatives!.
If you come in the morning all croissants and cakes are freshly baked. So for a typical Italian breakfast you’re sorted.
In addition, there is a beautiful mixture of English accents and always a bit of the Italian sound and chattery in the background from the staff or Italian people who come and go, which in my opinion, is the cherry on the top for a full “Britalian” experience in the heart of Wanstead.
Highly recommended! Go and pay them a visit. Ciao ciao! 🙂
I love More Italy! The food is freshly prepared, homely and delicious - very generous portions. The staff are an absolute delight and really brighten your day. It's one of the few places you can find cinotto san pelligrinos and the coffee is excellent. During summer, they have been doing aperitifs with snacks which has been a joy 😊
Lovely coffee, cakes, salads and food. Truly authentic and great range of of Italian products and amazing home-made olive oil. Friendly atmosphere and always full of local Italians which is a good sign! Highly recommended.
Great fresh food and amazing service
Our favorite local authentic Italian shop. Great atmosphere, good value for money.
The tuna sandwich was lovely and it was very tasty, was worth the money. I have never eaten a better tuna than this Italian tuna, the mayo was tasty and wasn’t too much. The girl serving was very beautiful and very lovely. Was very happy with the experience couldn’t have been any better.
Okay there was no to "die for" Scilian Cannoli - ricotta filling with pistachio - that I'll have to wait until tomorrow for those. But I had 2 excellent Capuccinos, with just the right amount of milk and a superb Ponza sandwich, on fresh bread mmmmmm!.All served with genuine smiles and friendliness☺️
Authentic Italian. Great staff (especially the owner, Vincenzo, who is very helpful, patient, & friendly). Proper coffee, much better priced than others on the high street. Delicious food. Excellent choice of Italian deli goods. Comfortable. Lovely atmosphere. Can get busy. Highly recommend. 👌🏼
Authentic Italian shop in the heart of Wanstead. My go-to place for groceries and real Italian espresso shots served by friendly and cheerful staff.
