Since the '50s coffee and scooters have been synonymous with italian culture. Our in-shop bar has been set up to enjoy a friendly and relaxing atmosphere.
Italian coffee being the best in the world needs the best equipment. We have an original 3 group Faema coffee machine built in Milan in 1957. This Faema Urania has been completely restored near Bologna (Italy) by our classic coffee machine expert.
"The spirit of Bar Italia is alive and well in Lower Marsh, thanks to tihs fab vintage scooter shop. ... This is Vespa and Lambretta heaven. Pull up a stool at the bar and enjoy a latte. ..." (Time Out).
You can have a simple espresso, the quick italian choice (sip and go) for just £0.80; an americano (long black coffee) £1.00; a caffelatte ( latte / flat white as you prefer), or a cappuccino (with the smooth foam on top) - £1.20. The alternative for non-coffee-drinkers is our exquisite thick italian DARK and WHITE hot chocolate - £1.20.
Tiny and cosy this is the perfect place in London where you can pass your time having a chat, practicing your italian or just relaxing and reading a book.
