Welcome to La Follia Caffè, our small slice of Italy. Beautiful, seasonal ingredients and the best coffee - nestled at the foot of the rolling South Downs, amongst the mix-century world of antique and vintage shop, Lamb & Newt. Our Cicchetti (small plates) are as big in flavour as they are small. Our hand made focaccia is sublime and the base for all our Sarnis and Toasties. If you come in time for breakfast the La Follia Brillante Breakfast Roll and freshly baked Cornetti will win your hearts.All our food is made by us, with all the love you'd expect. Literally every piece in the cafe has had a previous life and if it's not tethered or human, is for sale. A take away might be a little more than you expected. We'd love you to join us.La Follia x

The Chichester restaurant is excellent from the moment you walk in. It is well laid out and you are made to feel welcome. The tables are not too close and you are shown to your reserved seats. The menu is well prepared and the food arrives after a modest interval. The staff are excellent. We will book again soon.
