An award-winning Italian cafe forced to move out of Salford is keeping its former customers happy by making weekend deliveries.

Lupo Caffé Italiano had to relocate to Prestwich after five years in Chapel Street, Salford.

Owner Nico Pasquali was given notice by his landlord so the 33-year old from Rome has moved his café to Unit 65 Mountheath Trading Estate, Prestwich.

The café makes authentic Italian pizzas, pastries, cakes and provisions.

It supports local businesses by directly sourcing produce from Manchester veg markets and Lancashire farmers.

Cakes and pastries are handmade daily.

The café now delivers back into Salford on Friday and Saturday evenings. It advises customers to pre-order before Thursday at 5pm to avoid disappointment.

Mr Pasquali explained: “All menu items are popular, but especially the Zeppole di San Guieppe as you can’t find them anywhere else.”

Zeppole di San Guieppe is a filled choux pastry. The café fillings include custard and pistachio cream.

The Rome native has gathered a large following on Instagram, with almost 10,000 followers. Customers often share their love for the food by posting their experiences.

The café shares images of its cakes and pastries on Instagram before it opens so customers know what to expect as they often make different bakes on different days.

 

The business is also recruiting. Anyone who is interested can send their CV and a cover letter to lupocaffe@gmail.com
