Il Fornaio


This rustic little bakery and cafe is open late for dinner so you can feast on their pizzas, quiches and dinner dishes. And, bless them, they also get up early to feed you breakfast. The constant aroma of freshly baked bread is a guaranteed appetite aphrodisiac.

In more recent times, Il Fornaio has created quite a stir within the industry by acquiring the services of pastry practitioner Philippa Sibley - formerly of her own ventures Est Est Est, Ondine, and high flying restaurants Circa and Bistro Guillaume. With Philippa now at the helm, Il Fornaio has transformed into a sweetened sanctuary by night, with an upscale snack menu playing a supporting role to her divine desserts.

Lovely breakfast!
They serve breakfast that is easy to love and I remember a mouth-watering creme brulee. Yum!
