Authentic Italian with great range of Cocktails and Wine! Great vibe for dates, drinks with friends or any special evening.
Our fresh Pasta is handmade by Italians every morning. The word Scarpetta represents a moment of joy – it’s how we Italians define the gesture of taking a piece of bread to mop up the last delicious morsel of sauce on your plate – it signifies how we enjoy every moment in life.

We have a great selection of nibbles for a perfect Italian aperitivo, fresh pastas, cicchetti and homemade desserts. Your true Authentic Italian Restaurant experience.

Dining at Scarpetta was nothing short of extraordinary truly one of the best restaurant experiences of my life. The warm, inviting ambiance set the perfect tone, and the service was flawless attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely welcoming. The short rib ragù pasta was pure perfection, with rich, deep flavors that melted in my mouth. The aubergine with wild mushrooms was cooked to absolute perfection, bursting with smoky, earthy goodness. And then came the tiramisu light, airy, and decadent, the perfect sweet ending to an unforgettable meal. Every bite was a masterpiece, every moment exceptional. Scarpetta exceeded all expectations—I’ll be dreaming about this meal until I return. 11/10!

Was a really lovely restaurant with a very friendly lady who greeted us on entry and served us the time we were there. The food was incredible could have eaten it all again, and the Nutella gnocchi was super delicious. A lovely little restaurant would definitely recommend

Lovely experience! Our cacio e pepe was very bland, almost flavourless, which was strange as the rest of the food was amazing. Lovely waiter quickly exchanged the meal for something else, so no complaints!
