I think this place could be my new favourite shop. Not only did they have guanciali, but also aged pecorino romano, loads of genuine authentic experience and the ability to share it with grace. The lady who served me was very nice and my carbonara this evening has just been taken up a notch. 5 stars, brilliant.

Avoid. Meat sold after its use by date. Owner then argued that it was fine as he had frozen it! But sold as fresh. Bought Parmesan cut and wrapped that was supposed to be off a block that wasnt on the cheese counter and had no flavour. There seems to be no understanding of food safety or any concern that food past its use by date could make vulnerable people very ill. Its a shame as this was my favourite deli but I will not be going back!

Lovely, lovely!!! I could write an essay on the diffetypes of pasta they have which I reckon I've only seen 50% of anywhere else. Lovely vegetables pastries and hot snacks at lunchtime. What more do you need. OK, they don't do coffee.

This is an excellent shop Real authentic Italian. The owner Egidio is a gentleman he is also very passionate of what he sells therefore alway goes the extra mile to supply only the very best of Italian food here in Kent. This shop has recently changed hands. To be honest it might be for the better. In-between my first review and this edit Egidio had moved on and the shop was then managed by a Fabrizio and his Wife Lola and it was at this point I stopped using the shop as the prices were not consistent it would appear that the Fabrizio would think of a number and then double it. The new people seem OK and friendly. I must say on the two occasions I have been in the shop I have found that the prices were expensive if comparing to M&S simply food but then it is a lot closer then Sevenoaks I can only wish the new owners good luck
