Di Sopra
Friendly, authentic Italian restaurant serving handmade pizza and pasta just a short walk from the castle. A firm favourite with locals and visitors alike.
About Di Sopra
Di Sopra has been a real favourite in Alnwick since Valentina took over the restaurant from her uncle Roberto in 2015. Situated on Bondgate Within, just a short distance from Alnwick Castle and Gardens, it serves authentic Italian pizza and pasta made with the best quality Italian ingredients alongside local Northumbrian produce. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and the menu covers all the classics done well, from wood-fired pizzas to fresh pasta dishes and Italian desserts. Booking is advisable, especially on weekends and during the summer tourist season.
