Caffè Tropea: Tripadvisor Travellers Choice Awards Winner 2024

Described most recently by the Friends of Russell Square Association as ‘an Anglo-Italian idyll in a garden’, our authentic Italian Caffe was opened in 1981- and it’s been family-run ever since. Nowadays, restaurants rooted at the heart of Italian culture are hard to come by- that’s why people continue to love our home-grown recipes and bespoke, signature coffee blend. 

 

We have been serving Bloomsbury’s community for over 4 decades and with the loyal support of our wonderful customers, we’re proud to have been awarded the Tripadvisor Travellers Choice Award for 2024.

 

At Caffè Tropea, locals feel loved and newcomers feel like old friends. This warm and welcoming atmosphere brings in all kinds of customers from Bloomsbury and around central London’s oasis. A stone’s throw away from the British Museum, stunning architecture and a few of the capital’s top universities, we are a favourite among professors, students and residents alike. Our stunning surroundings only add to the vibrancy of our local community. 

 

When it comes to your morning fix, Italians have been serving English breakfasts in the UK for nearly a century. Our breakfast at Caffè Tropea honours this classic tradition but with Italian flair. Our English breakfasts as well as our Italian lunches and aperitivos bring a taste of authentic Italian culture to the heart of London, creating a delightful fusion of flavours that celebrates both culinary traditions. 

 

Russell Square gardens is central London’s oasis making it a perfect backdrop for a relaxing meal or a quick catch-up with friends. For those who wish to bring a taste of Caffè Tropea into their own homes, our signature Italian coffee blend created from long standing family traditions is available to purchase on Amazon or through our online coffee shop in bags, tins and pods.
