Nonna’s is a family run business which prides itself on sourcing the highest quality ingredients to ensure the best flavours for our customers. As you may know Nonna’s Kitchen translated means Grandmother’s Kitchen.

The perfect place for a 90th Birthday celebration. Highly recommended. Nice setting with space between tables and excellent service. The staff were helpful and considerate. An excellent menu and vegetables mostly as side dishes was appreciated. We could help ourselves to as much or as little as we wished. [The elderly cannot cope with a mountain of vegetables arriving on their plates.}
