The birthday of my sohnes is not for a few weeks, but with my daughter in worcestershire, planned celebration, etc. the logistics, organizing a family to celebrate jonathan's birthday, meant an early start. but then who is not happy to start celebrating early!. I have suggested that we all go to corto italian deli and remember the wonderful birthday meal they offered for me last year. corto is a family lover, we go there a lot: for morning coffee, lunch and buy Italian dishes like their wonderful cold meat, cheese, pasta and homemade cakes, and the favorites of the family - taralli.

Excellent cakes mainly chocolate and hazelnut cake....staff is cheerful and very nice....and the coffee is the best in twickenham area.....esich and my wife favorite deli in twickenham....has not yet tried any other food there.

Lovely deli with nice coffee and snacks, you do have to sit outside which could be a problem in poor weather, also in the shade.

Called in for a cold drink, afternoon coffee and some pastries. The ladies behind the counter were very welcoming and recommended cold drinks and delicious pastries for us. We sat outside on comfortable chairs with good cushions and drinks and food were promptly bought to us. This is the quieter end of Church St., in the afternoon at least. The pastries were delicious and the coffee was very good too. They offer lots of different paninis and salads for light lunches. This is deli as well as a café with lots of traditional Italian produce on sale. We will definitely pop in for a longer look round the shelves next time we are in Twickenham
