EXCELLENT Based on 35 reviews Tara McGovern2025-02-02Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Wow 🤩 what a hidden gem right in the centre of Hinckley !! Who knew … True authentic hand stretched dough ( I know because I asked a lot of questions ) encouraged by the beautiful Aperol spritz we enjoyed 🍊 photos do not do the experience justice . No arguments about who’s picking up the takeaway . How a salad can become a taste sensation ☺️ … the way a Camembert is encased in bread and drizzled with the BEST sticky balsamic glaze 🥯 and their signature made to order and tailored to you individual pizzas wow wow wow . Far and away the BEST food I have ever tasted 🥗 🍕 🫕 🥯 beautiful relaxed cafe bar mixture of clientele , anything seemed to go from a coffee at 10pm to some very interesting looking shots enjoyed by those dancing to the live music 💃 and seemingly having a great night (Saturday) The passion that went into making our evening a great experience was evident . Thank you for the BEST taste experience 🇮🇹 !!!! Mantas Plėšikas2025-02-01Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Lots of Space, the Food is delicious!

Cosy little corner of the Clarence serving freshly cooked, authentic Italian food! The pizza was great, the Caprese salad delicious (served in a bread basket 😍) we also had a pesto pasta too, again, in a bread basket- we ate the lot - we will be back again £32 for two people.. great service, great food x Anthony Brook2025-01-01Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We went yesterday as a family 2 adults 2 children to the pizza making, it was really fun and the food tasted brilliant. I don’t think I have ever been to a more friendly place Timothy Jeanes2024-11-16Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This is another review that I really can’t believe has taken me this long. Soon after discovering The Clarence we had our first experience of the food from Pane & Gusto, we were immediate fans of the food itself, and the wonderful people who make it. This is Italian cuisine of the highest order, none of this chain Italian restaurant nonsense, this is the real deal. You can literally taste that all of the food is made with passion and love and a desire to make everything a real culinary experience. My partner absolutely loves their charcuterie and cheese board, she gets it most times we visit and I often have plate envy. I’ve tried their pizzas, panini’s and their burgers, all are top notch, I think I might be a little addicted to their various varieties of burger, I’ve started dreaming about them! The quality of the Italian bread that is freshly made for each dish is what really sets Pane & Gusto apart from the rest, it’s absolutely glorious, tasty, light and always consistently brilliant. It makes their burger better than any I have tried because it transforms it from just meat delivery method into a real eating experience. We were also recommended the supplí as an alternative to fries and we have ordered them every time since, they are like little rice and veg balls of joy and we are glad to have them in our lives. Basically, everything they make is ridiculously good, I just want to work my way through their whole menu! This level of culinary brilliance would be impossible without the glorious Viv and Flavio there to put their mark on every single item made. Not only are they both geniuses, they are also two of the most wonderful people you are ever likely to meet. It’s always such a pleasure to spend time with them when we visit, and they are always happy to give advice and run through the menu options with you. So next time you go to the Clarence, get one or three of their brilliant cocktails and then order some of the best Italian food you are ever likely to eat from Pane & Gusto, you won’t regret it, and you will be back for more.

Friendly service too Carly Charles2024-10-23Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My fave place to eat! I come regularly to eat at the wonderful Pane & Gusto, either on my own or with friends/family and every single time the food is outstanding. My favourites have been those pictured! The pear burger is honestly the best burger I have ever tried in my life 😍 so juicy, the flavours all work together beautifully, like a party in your mouth. This burger is new and part of the Christmas menu. The regular burger is juicy and flavoursome also. The pumpkin pizza is divine. On top of all of these incredible flavours, the service is second to none and I can take my laptop and get some work done too. The atmosphere is so friendly I’m totally comfortable doing this.
