The meaning of Calabrisella is the original folklore woman's costume from the Calabria region. we are in Canton where was our first home when we all first arrived in Cardiff 10 years ago, and we found it very friendly, close to town, with a diversity of shops and restaurants and therefore we found it ideal to set up Calabrisella. We are 3 partners, Salvo, Angelo and Domenico. Our story began back in Italy where we met at high school and become good friends ever since. We came to Cardiff to learn English and 10 years later... Calabrisella came to life! All our staff is from Italy, with great experience within the catering Industry.. Our aim is to when you walk through our doors that our friendly staff makes you feel like you are in Italy. Our head chef is Domenico, he is a fully qualified and very knowledgeable and diverse chef from years of his experience from working all over Italy, his passion is food and one of things that makes him proud is to be able to offer customer the opportunity to taste his specialities and diversity from all over Italy. Our clientele is very diverse as we are open from 8am till 10pm, and come from all over the place , and from young children with their families to the older generation. our menu ranges from a creamy Italian espresso with one of all our lovely filled croissant, to our English Italian style breakfast to a quick take away panini or you could sit and experience our diverse menu, where you can choose a real Italian pizza to one of Domenico speciality..like arrancini and canoli from Sicily that is loved by our customers. we are authentic, passionate and pour our hearts into making Calabrisella a success that customer will love to come to experience a bit of Calabria in Cardiff.. We are proud to be the first bar/ Pizzeria in Cardiff and our concept is to offer traditional home cooked Italian food ' Just like mama used to make'! Our decor is simple and rustic with authentic artefacts adding the authenticity from the Calabria region.

❤️🇮🇹 Together, we bring a little piece of Italy to Cardiff.

At Calabrisella, we believe collaboration is the key to success. We are proud to be part of AIIG – Associazione Imprenditori in Galles, bringing Italian businesses and our community together.

Welcoming over 1,000 people to the first Cardiff Italian Festival filled our hearts with pride. Every shared meal, every dance and every smile reminded us how beautiful it is to share our roots and feel at home, even far from Italy. ❤️

Thank you to everyone who joined, supported and helped make this possible. This is just the beginning.

Grazie di cuore, Cardiff! 🇮🇹🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Leaving Italy means learning to live with a little distance in your heart. But people like Salvatore Varà make that distance feel smaller. 🇮🇹❤️

Through Calabrisella, he has brought his passion, his roots and his belief in italianità to Cardiff—creating opportunities for Italians building a life abroad, and a place where our culture is shared with everyone. A familiar voice, a flavour from childhood, a welcome that makes you feel you belong: sometimes, these are the things we miss most.

Behind his projects are courage, sacrifice and the determination to keep believing, even when the road is difficult. With more ventures on the horizon, that dream continues to grow, carrying others forward with it.

Thank you, Salvatore, for putting so much of your heart into this city. For giving people a chance to build their future here while keeping their homeland close.

Some people carry Italy in their hearts. You keep finding ways to share yours with us.
