A view of a city from a high point of view

Ciao! It's nice to meet you.

We're the fresh and new daytime food & coffee place in St Annes on the Sea, Lancashire where we serve Italian food favourites and proper Italian coffee. 

Start your day off with a cappuccino or espresso and a freshly filled, crispy cannoli or enjoy our selection of impressive sandwiches bursting with Italian favourites such as Proscuitto, Mortadella and Mozzerella. 

We have hot lunchtime pasta speciale Monday-Friday  11.30am-2pm (not bank holidays) for you to eat in or take away, giving you a taste of the Italian sunshine to improve your lunch experience.

We must also mention our light and tasty Pizzetta - a smaller sized lunchtime pizza made from scratch by us in the traditional Neapolitan way and cooked in a wood-fired pizza oven for that authentic crisp crust - delicious! 

Fresh and tasty, seven days a week.

Fabulous food easily the tastiest by far using authentic Italian products. Their sandwiches are superb as is the lemon cake. I missed out on the cannoli as they had sold out. Customer service excellent too. 100% recommend.

Just been for lunch at Eat The Italian Way. Highly recommend it.  Sandwiches are so fresh and the Nutella cannoli was to die for.

It sells delicious ciabatta and foccacia sandwiches (the foccacia is made fresh every morning). I had a salami, smoked cheese and pesto foccacia sandwich which was lovely followed by a Nutella cannoli.
