The Foletta Story
A Taste of Tradition
A family-run café & bar nestled in a shop front dated back to 1480 in the heart of the Cotswolds! Here, you’ll find a cozy atmosphere filled with charming antiques and a menu brimming with cherished family recipes and nods to England, Australia, and Italy. Two sisters and our mother, the space and menu is filled with lots of stories of heritage and meaning. Join us for a delightful experience where every bite tells a story and every visit feels like coming home.
Rooted in our heritage
"Foletta" is primarily a surname of Italian origin, believed to be derived from the Latin word "folium" meaning "leaf." The early bearers of the name may have been involved in farming or land management. Our lineage with the name abides by this theory, its earliest origin within our family in farming in Italy many, many years ago. Farming has been woven into our family’s story ever since and it’s remained close to our hearts through the generations.

We are a small plates restaurant that offers coffees, drinks and pastries during the day and small plates and drinks in the evening! As well as yummy deserts and a range of house wines and guest wines.
We also very much recommend our non-alcoholic selection of beers and prosecco! We have endeavoured to locally source as much as possible and hope in time we will be able to continue this even further #backbritishfarming
Access
There are three steps up to the main bar area, and three steps up to the studio and restroom. We are working on modifying our restroom to an ambulant restroom, unfortunately due to the nature of the building we are unable to offer a fully accessible toilet. Please contact us to discuss any access requirements and we will do our best to accomodate.
