SPECIALTY COFFEE | ITALIAN WINE BAR | SHOP IN THE HEART OF ST ALBANS

We serve amazing specialty coffee and delicious food by day, including freshly made gourmet focaccia sandwiches and turn into a cozy and lovely wine bar from noon onwards from Thursday to Sunday.

Run by people willing to share with you little or big celebratory moments of your life. We are a bit quirky no doubt, but rest assured we have a meticulous approach to everything we do.

Whatever the occasion, let's build some great memories together!

SINGLE ORIGIN SPECIALTY COFFEE

We are small and independent. Since we started the business in September 2025, we have built a very close relationship with our coffee roaster Mauro. All coffee beans used at Baruccio are sourced from single estate producers who practice sustainable farming methods. We favour small-batch roasting, to insure the unique terroir and delicate flavours of the origin shine. Lovingly roasted in North London, our coffee is delivered weekly and brewed with passion and attention to details by our talented baristas.

ITALIAN WINE BAR

We have extensive experience sourcing the finest wines directly from Italy, working exclusively with producers who are committed to organic, sustainable, and regenerative agricultural practices. Our carefully curated selection reflects the diversity and quality of Italian winemaking, and we continuously update our list to bring you the most exceptional bottles available in the market. Each month, we host intimate wine tastings where we showcase some of the most outstanding Italian wines available in the UK, offering our guests the opportunity to discover new favourites and deepen their appreciation for Italian viticulture.

Cannoli Siciliani

Cannoli siciliani are one of the most beloved traditional desserts from Sicily, Italy. These sweet pastries consist of crispy, tube-shaped shells made from fried dough, filled with a rich and creamy mixture of sweetened ricotta cheese, often blended with candied fruit, chocolate chips, or pistachios.

With their perfect balance of crunch and creaminess, cannoli siciliani capture the essence of Italian sweetness and craftsmanship.

Have you tried them at Baruccio?
