Following on from the success of its sister establishment - Mediterraneo at the Boat House - this delightful restaurant has opened in the heart of Whitchurch. Expertly combing Welsh produce with Italian expertise, this restaurant has successfully established itself as a charming eatery with real warmth and character.

Why not begin your dining experience by sharing home-baked focaccia bread with olive oil and balsamic vinegar, or succulent black and green olives in a homemade marinade. Accompany with a fine wine or choose a cocktail from the bar and sip your beverage of choice while your chosen dish is prepared.

The tempting antipasti menu comes highly recommended, and should not be missed - choose from tender cured meats, pickles and mouth-watering cheeses, served with a truly gorgeous tomato chilli jam. For mains, you'll be spoilt for choice by a menu of signature dishes. The options are endless, ranging from fresh fish and lamb, to risottos and a comprehensive selection of pasta. Pizzas here are authentic and exceptionally tasty; those who wish to create their own can do so, with numerous toppings to choose from. In true Italian style, unwind and take your time to savour the delicious flavours. If you want something sweet to finish, opt for the creamy tiramisu or indulge in a scoop or two of sorbet or ice cream - the Cointreau and orange flavour, in particular, is heavenly.

An equally wonderful venue for lunchtime dining, Mediterraneo presents a wide selection of starters, mains and salads to pick from. Take advantage of the excellent offers available and order any main course for just £7.95, two courses for £9.95 or three for £12.95. Offering a thoroughly enjoyable experience from start to finish, this place makes you feel instantly at ease due to the calm, relaxed atmosphere. The food is carefully prepared and presented with authenticity and passion. For an authentic taste of Italy, look no further than this fantastic restaurant - whatever the occasion, you're guaranteed a memorable meal.
