We had Mothers day lunch here and it was excellent. The sandwiches were delicious (I had the Valentinos Favourite and my mum had chicken escalope both on focaccia) the portion sizes were good. The staff were so friendly and attentive. It also felt like they worked really well together- they were helping each other out and having fun and it really gave the place a relaxed and fun atmosphere. I would definitely recommend this place and cannot wait to go back.

"I've eaten here twice and the food has been 10/10. One of the best BLTs I've had" - to quote my beautiful wife. I agree. Caffe Valentios was excellent and felt like Italy. Its a little quirky inside and has lost of character. We stopped in for lunch at an awkward time when the kitchen was closed, but they could still offer sandwiches. Which was probably a good thing because we wouldn't have got to try them otherwise. They were great. The focaccia bread worked really well - though personally I'd have liked it to be more oily. Coffee was excellent and so was the cheese cake and pasta de nata. Would definitely recommend and can't wait to try dinner there.

Really nice gluten-free pizza. I often have food envy when everyone else gets a nice big normal pizza and the gluten free pizza is one of those small hard from frozen bases. Not sure if they make their own bases here but my gluten free one was a good as the standard one my husband had. Thank you. Quick service, nice atmosphere.

We searched in google maps for a bakery (to buy pastries) and this place came up. It certainly didn’t disappoint. The cakes and pastries taste as good as they look. The staff were super helpful in advising our selection and packaged them up carefully for our walk home. No need to head further up the street to Waitrose again now we’ve discovered this place!
