Caffè Nero was founded in 1997 by Gerry Ford who had a vision to bring a continental style coffee house experience to Europe and beyond.
Our philosophy is really very simple: Premium Italian coffee. A warm and welcoming atmosphere. Good food and great personal service.
Caffè Nero has continued to increase its store numbers, sales and profitability year on year and become a familiar neighbourhood meeting place in towns and cities across Europe and US. As store numbers have increased, Caffè Nero has built a strong brand identity built on premium espresso-based gourmet coffee, authentic Italian food products and a relaxing atmosphere in every store.
We're on a mission to get the UK drinking better coffee by making freshly roasted coffee accessible to everyone. Our world-class beans are bought directly from farmers to cut out middlemen and ensure a truly fair price is paid. We then hand-roast them in Surrey and ship them just days later to you.
