Introducing: Antipasti Wednesdays & Thursdays an Paninnis! 🍷🥖 We’re bringing a brand new ritual to your mid-week. From this week, our deli fridge is fully stocked with premium Italian cold meats, ready to be sliced fresh to order the second you walk through the door.
The best part? You can totally custom-build your own plate. If you’re coming in with a crew of three or four, grab a few different sliced meats, add a hot garlic & cheese pizza or some fresh focaccia, and you’ve got the ultimate grazing setup.
It’s the perfect way to kick off dinner. Available every Wednesday and Thursday. Here’s a sneaky look at what we’re slicing up this week:
🍖 Prosciutto di San Daniele: This isn’t your average prosciutto—it’s sweeter, more delicate, and the ultimate way to elevate your antipasti plate.
🔥 Salame Piccante: For those who like a bit of a kick. Cured with hot chilli peppers for a bold flavour that screams for a cold beer or wine.
💎 Salame al Tartufo: Pure luxury. Infused with real black truffle, this is a rich, earthy showstopper that absolutely melts in your mouth.
✨ Mortadella: Delightfully mild and smooth. Sliced razor-thin into light, velvety ribbons, this Bologna classic has a delicate flavour and is the perfect mild balancer to pair alongside our bolder, spicier salamis.
🍷 Coppa (Pork Collar Butt): The real deal. Unlike standard salami, this is a whole cured muscle with beautiful, deep marbling, giving it a sweet, rich flavour and tender texture.
Which one are you keen to try first? ⬇️ Tag your favourite dining partners and lock in your table for this week!

What I bring to the table: Bombolini and a round of Grappa for the group. 💁♂️✨ If you haven’t finished your meal at Paninnis with a fluffy Italian doughnut and a traditional digestif, you’re missing out.

Current status: Embracing the autumn chill, even though I’d happily drink red wine in a heatwave. 🍷🍂 Who’s with me?

Soft hues and delicate florals. 🌹✨ Catch these beauties before they leave. We’ve got two new signature sips on the bar this week:
🍸 Lady Rose: A sophisticated blend of Pink Gin and Creme de Cacao, balanced with our house-made rose, vanilla, and apple nectar. Floral, creamy, and carries just the right amount of botanical kick.
🌸 Pink Petal: All the elegance, none of the alcohol. A crisp, sparkling drink that proves mocktails can be just as high-fashion.
Think velvet-soft foam and a hint of vanilla bean. Whether you’re here for a midweek wood-fired feast or a weekend catch-up, they’re the perfect companions.
Which one are you reaching for first? Tell us in the comments!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “The crème brûlée was phenomenal!”
It really is. But honestly? With so many handcrafted desserts to choose from, your only real struggle is going to be deciding which one to try first. 😅
We’ve perfected the art of the “sweet finish.” Whether you’re a fan of the classics or looking for something different, here is the lineup that has our guests obsessed:
✨ Signature Tiramisu Crafted with velvety mascarpone, espresso-soaked delicate Savoiardi, and a whisper of liqueur. A luxuriously light Italian classic.
✨ Vanilla Crème Brûlée (GF) A silky vanilla custard crowned with a golden, caramelized sugar crust. The perfect harmony of creamy and crisp textures.
✨ Nutella Bombolini Soft, golden Italian-style doughnuts bursting with Nutella, paired with velvety vanilla ice cream and ripe, local strawberries.
✨ Pineapple Tarte Tatin An upside-down tart of caramelized pineapple on buttery puff-pastry, served with toasted coconut and a rich caramel drizzle.
✨ The Classic Affogato Smooth vanilla ice cream served with a warm shot of espresso and a hint of hazelnut liqueur for that perfect bitter-sweet balance.
✨ Vanilla Bean Panna Cotta Silky and delicately set, served with a vibrant raspberry coulis and crowned with airy vanilla fairy floss.
