Mamas & Leonies
Mama & Leonies started out as a pizzeria in 1968. Since then, the restaurant has grown into one of the area's most popular Italian and European restaurants. The food is prepared on site and cooked fresh to order. As a family owned business, the atmosphere is personal and inviting. Guests can expect a large menu of Italian cuisines that includes ravioli, calzones, lasagna and spaghetti. However, the restaurant's specialty remains its wide selection of homemade and freshly baked pizzas. For the kids, the restaurants offers Bambini meals for £4.50, which comes with a bowl of Mama's homemade ice cream.
