Caffe Amici - Kingston upon Thames

This is a really nice cafe. IMO the best coffee in Surbiton and with a nice seating area which I guess not many people know about. The pastries are easily the best in Surbiton. Bit of a gem.

Every time he comes to Surbiton my grandson heads straight to Sopratutto for an amazing ice cream. All the flavours are delicious and this is real ice cream, Italian style, I would thoroughly recommend. I would say this is more a take away cake coffee and ice cream bar rather than a sit down restaurant, it is tiny, but there are a couple of tables outside.

If you tire of big noisy cafes in Surbiton, Soprattutto fits the bill as a good place for individuals. It's a thin sliver of a coffee shop, serving ice creams as well as the usual array of biscuits and cakes. The cafe has had lots of different incarnations (K's, Delicafe, Amici etc), and no one has been able to make it pay as it has so few covers in such a tiny corridor. But full marks to everyone for persistence. You can almost always get a small table to yourself. Seats 20, strong coffee with a toasted flavour.

I have visited a few times with family and on my own and have enjoyed every visit. The shop is very petite and cosy. Coffee is fantastic and the food is great too and all reasonably priced. They offer pastries and sweet treats including ice creams. And also panini, soups and pasta dishes. The atmosphere is relaxed and the staff are friendly. There are toilet facilities available I would say that this coffee shop might not be suitable for wheelchair or pram access as it's quite narrow.

Always meant to try the ice cream in here and the recent heatwave was a perfect opportunity. Really cosy atmosphere inside and a lovely mellow flavoured mocha ice cone which was filled all the way to the hilt. Perfect.
