Experience the Strafford Self Drive difference!
At Bellini, we are dedicated to serving authentic Italian cuisine in a chic and modern setting. Our founders were driven by the belief that flavour comes from the origin of ingredients, and so we import the finest 'materia prima' produced in Italy. We work closely with local producers to source the best ingredients, which allows us to create dishes that are truly exceptional.
