About Pochettino

At Pochettino, we believe that food and wine are not just about satisfying hunger and thirst; From breakfast to dinner is about creating memorable experiences and connecting people. Our philosophy is rooted in three core principles: quality, authenticity, and community.

Quality: 

We are committed to providing our customers with the highest quality ingredients and products. From our carefully selected Italian deli meats and cheeses to our handcrafted pastas and sauces, every item on our menu is made with the utmost care and attention to detail. We believe that by using the best ingredients, we can create dishes that are not only delicious but also nourishing for the body and soul.

Authenticity:

At Pochettino, we celebrate the rich culinary traditions of Italy. Our recipes have been passed down through generations, preserving the authentic flavors and techniques that make Italian cuisine so special. From the classic Roman Pinsa baked in a wood-fired oven to the  hearty lasagnas, each dish reflects the true essence of Italian cooking. We believe that authenticity is the key to creating a truly memorable dining experience.

Community:

We believe that food has the power to bring people together and create lasting connections. Pochettino is more than just a deli cafe and wine bar; it is a gathering place for friends, families, and food lovers alike. We strive to create a warm and welcoming atmosphere where everyone feels like part of the Pochettino family. Whether you're joining us for a quick espresso and pastry in the morning or enjoying a leisurely aperitivo  with friends, we want you to feel at home.

In addition to our commitment to quality, authenticity, and community, we are also dedicated to sustainability and supporting local producers. We source our ingredients from local farmers and artisans whenever possible, reducing our carbon footprint and ensuring that our dishes are as fresh and flavorful as can be.

At Pochettino Italian Deli Cafe and Wines, we invite you to embark on a culinary journey that celebrates the best of Italian cuisine. Join us in experiencing the flavors, traditions, and warm hospitality that make Pochettino a truly special place.

In 2024, Andrea and Isabella, two culinary enthusiasts and wine lovers, decided to turn their shared passion for food into a reality. They envisioned a place where people could gather, indulge in delicious dishes, and create lasting memories. With a clear vision in mind, they set out to bring their dream to life.

We are a small community of people passionate about fine Italian produce and top quality wines. We run an independent Deli /Cafe & Wine bar in Woking. 

We work closely with our suppliers to make sure we always offer our customers the best produce Italy has to offer. We organise regular tastings and staff training sessions with our producers at our deli and take time to visit them in Italy to really learn about them, their ethos and their produce.

 We love Italy, its culture, its gastronomy and respect Italy’s rich biodiversity. We love what we do and it is our daily mission to build a friendly community based around good food and wine.
