About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions

Welcome to Caffé Piccolo
Surrey has been the home to Caffé Piccolo since 1995. Offering its guests the very best taste of Italy.

We are proud to be an independent, family-run, Italian restaurant with a relaxing, family-friendly atmosphere.

The oak panelling, original fireplaces and dried hops scale the wooden beams of this historic building.

Whisking you away from the frenzy and traffic of life and placing you anywhere from the top of the boot in Milan to the tip of the toe in Sicily ready to explore epicurean delights, created by Chef Darius.

A casual-elegant dress code is recommended.
We suggest you make a reservation in order to secure your table.

    We visit Cafe Piccolo probably 3-4 times a year as it is a halfway point for meeting up with friends. We have never been disappointed with the food or service. The boys had pizzas which were great, my friend had lasagne also great and I had sea bass fillets in caper and lemon butter dressing, delicious. I love that the specials always have a couple of fish options as I love fish and last time had the tuna steak which was also delicious. The service is excellent, the owner/manager is a real joker which makes it more fun and the restaurant itself is cosy yet smart. Love the Italian murals which almost make you feel you could be in Italy. A shout out also to Chloe who looked after us very well. We will try to get back more often. Also the candle in my dessert (a super light sticky toffee pudding) and Happy Birthday rendition from the staff was a nice touch.

    This was our second visit to this wonderful gem of a restaurant in Farnham. The staff are so welcoming and helpful. The menu is varied with something for everyone - we both had the Penne Al Forno which was perfectly cooked and delicious. Highly recommended for a romantic evening or even a group of friends. We will definitely be back again soon.

    As always, a great dining experience. Serviced by wonderful staff who give you enough space to enjoy your meal and yet are always at the ready to attend your needs. I cannot recommend this restaurant highly enough.

    The food is always fantastic, but the drinks are so expensive now; £4 for a can of coke is extortionate.
