    Absolutely amazing Deli! Excellent quality and authentic produce, delicious Panini's and coffee and the desserts are to die for! Katya is always so friendly as are the rest of the team! I love the selection of fresh meats and cheese as well as the variety of pasta.

    This little shop was recommended to me by a friend and its the best! It has everything you're looking for, if you love Italian stuff! I found here the perfect birthday gift! While I was enjoying a nice coffee, it was ready!(about 20 minutes) . I recommend it to everyone, at least you have to try it! 5+ stars!

    Delicious food and truly lovely coffee, staff are full of advice if needed. The best enjoyable place to go visit and lots of lovely items that can be purchased. Huge selection of (proper) pasta to select from. Fab and the best Italian shop, for Northampton.

    This little shop is one of Northampton’s biggest assets! Great array of products both on the shelves and counter. We especially like the pistachio sweet treats and artichoke and mozzarella panini. Recommend going early in the day before the fresh bread and pastries sell out.

    We had the pleasure of being invited to the supper club at The Italian Shop and it far surpassed my expectations. I fully under appreciated the social interaction with like minded food, wine and Italian lovers; facilitate this with a fabulously hosted & deliciously inclusive 5 course supper, you have a perfectly balanced experience that will linger on the palate for weeks.. The only thing on the eating agenda is when the next supper club booking is! 😍

    This is not only the shop, this is a little Italia there. You coming into and you immediately slow down, you feel like visiting a good friend to have some coffee with. They are very much like a family and always smiling, always extremally helpful and friendly. And their Italian food is just divine! Also served with care, every slice od ham is packed properly, every cooking ingredients are genuine and the highest quality for very fair prices. Hot coffee and paninis, homemade cakes etc always available. 5 of 5 is not enough to rate them

👍 Had been on my list to visit for quite a while. Good meats and cheeses, and beer options. I'd love to come back for wine. Unfortunately the bread was a bit sad. Need a bit more effort to add accompaniments to the boards as other than the high quality meat and cheese they are a bit basic. Unfortunate...
