I love la cucina! It's so worth the journey from the city centre because the food is fantastic and the sandwiches taste so good!!

Get takeaway pizzas on a regular basis from here. Always very tasty just like a real Italian pizza should be. Can be crazy at peak times on Saturdays so could improve take there take away system as can be waiting for a while. Think about opening on Sundays?

Went here for lunch lately with a friend and it's no wonder that people wait for ages on end. The food is simply delicious! It had been ages since I'd called to La Cucina and I was pleasantly surprised with the new larger menu they offer. My friend tried a bruschetta dish which was just gorgeous. Their little fruit tartlets... More

The food here is just excellent, it's like you get in all those wonderful places in Italy. The pasta the pizza's the coffee and the deserts are just made to perfection, how so many other places get it wrong is hard to believe. Carry out food is also excellent cant wait to return.

If you want very good quality Italian food, very well cooked, and a lovely glass of wine - all at a very reasonable price - then this is the place. Of course it's tiny but I'll happily be squashed in to eat here. Have been loads and never got a dud. Friendly service too.

I ordered a pizza from La Cucina on way home from work a while back and when I got home and opened it the pizza was crisp and burnt !! Wasn't what I was expecting as I had heard good things. They did offer me a fresh one when I called them, but I wasn't driving 25 mins back in... More
