Tropea is our family surname and a seaside town in Calabria, Southern Italy, where our parents were born.

The historic Santuario di Santa Maria dell’Isola has watched over the town for centuries. We like to think it still watches over us too.

Our family still returns to Calabria, where our parents pick olives from the family land to make their own olive oil.

Back in London, Caffè Tropea opened in Bloomsbury in 1981, and the baby on the Russell Square lawn grew up to work alongside Mamma and Papà.

Over the coming weeks, we’ll share more of the food, coffee, people and places that shaped us Caffè Tropea®.

From Calabria to Bloomsbury. Since 1981.

Caffè Tropea celebrating 40years. Famiglia-Run Since 1981.

Born in Calabria, Southern Italy the Tropea Family left Italy for the UK in the early 1960’s. Papà opened the doors to our London Caffè in Russell Square Gardens in the first week of March 1981 with Nonno and Nonna. When mamma came to London and married papà in the eighties, she introduced a new wave of Italian cuisine.

Today the founders of our business are still proudly involved and the new generation feel blessed to be able to continue embracing old traditions while staying future-forward at the same time, to make sure we always bring authentic and exciting flavours to our table especially in these challenging times.

Wherever you are please continue to support your local, independent businesses and stay safe. From all the family, Grazie mille 🙏 Cent’anni 🥂
