Looks from the outside like a lunchtime sandwich place - but it's actually a really great little Italian restaurant run with a lovely, fun, friendly Italian family. Great food at great prices. Don't expect silver service and if their local suppliers didn't stock it it'll be off the menu. Relax and e
So when having a conversation with my Italian hairdresser about the lack of Italian restaurants with proper homecooked Italian food with fresh ingredients and that Italian love poured into the cooking that is missing from our world of franchised 'Italian' restaurants, he told me about Bar Espresso..
Very welcoming and friendly service, food was delicious. The menu had a great selection of dishes that made it quite difficult to choose. Relaxed and friendly atmosphere.
