AUTUMN HAS ARRIVED AT ROSSO 🍂☕️

There’s something rather lovely about the café at this time of year.

The autumn bits are out, the coffee machine is on, autumn flavours are in the homemade cakes and there’s a warm table waiting for you.

No fuss. No rushing about.

Just good coffee, homemade food and a little corner of Wigan to sit down and enjoy for a while. ❤️

We’re open today from 11am.

MONDAYS DON’T HAVE TO BE EXCITING. ☕️

Sometimes you just need somewhere nice to sit.

A pot of tea.
Something homemade.
A friendly face.
And an hour where nobody expects very much from you.

That’s rather what cafés are for, isn’t it?

We’ll have a table waiting. ❤️

MONDAYS ARE A FUNNY OLD THING... ☕️

We've noticed something over the years.

Quite a lot of cafés close on a Monday.

We don't really know why. 😂

Maybe there's a secret café owners' meeting we've never been invited to.

Because tomorrow morning, we'll do exactly what we've done for the last ten years...

Turn the lights on.
Put the coffee machine on.
Get the cakes out.
Make the soup.
Open the doors.

And welcome you in. ❤️

In fact, we do that SEVEN DAYS A WEEK.

Monday.
Tuesday.
Wednesday.
Thursday.
Friday.
Saturday.
Sunday.

Then, for reasons we've never entirely understood, we start all over again. 😂

No grand marketing strategy.

We just rather like being a café!

And if you've got a Monday off, you're meeting a friend, escaping the house, fancy a decent coffee or simply need somewhere warm to sit for an hour...

We'll be here.

11am tomorrow.

Lights on.
Coffee on.
Cakes out.
Door open.

Because apparently Monday is the café world's day off...

Nobody told us. 😂❤️

GOOD MORNING, WIGAN ☕

The lights are on.
The coffee machine’s boiling.
Breakfast starts at 9:30am.
Golden toast.
Fresh coffee done properly.
Something sweet if you feel like it.

And today’s homemade Sweet Potato and Butternut Squash soup is gently simmering on the hob, ready for lunch service.

Fresh scones. Only just baked this morning by Stephen!

If you've had one of our scones before, "you'll know"😉

Served warm and accompanied with Rodda's clotted cream and Tiptree jam.
..we've had customers tell us they're better than scones they've had at some very famous hotels, which is a compliment we'll certainly never take for granted.

Light, homemade and baked right here on Wigan Lane! ❤️

We're open from 9am today.
(Walk-ins always welcome)

What’s in a name?!

We’re sometimes asked why we called it Caffè Rosso.

Well… “rosso” is Italian for red 🇮🇹❤️

We’ve always loved Italy, but red also seems to have followed us both around for most of our lives!

Our front doors when we were little boys? Red.
Our first cars? Red.
Our family football teams? Red.

And then there’s the slightly less sophisticated (🤣) story of how Caffè Rosso actually began…

About 12 years ago, we were on holiday, Pretty drunk on a balcony, and somehow got onto the subject of opening our own café.

It was probably one of those conversations that should have been completely forgotten by the following morning.

Except we didn’t forget it!!

A couple of years later, in 2016, we actually did it. We opened the doors to Caffè Rosso.

That was TEN YEARS AND FOUR MONTHS AGO!! Blimey!!

A lot has changed since then, but the important bits really haven’t.

Every cake in our cabinet is still homemade. Our soups are made here from raw ingredients. Our sandwiches are freshly prepared using artisan bread. And we’re still ridiculously fussy about ingredients, the little details, the welcome and the standards.

Could we buy more things in? Yep.
Could we cut a few corners? Yep.
Could we probably do things more cheaply? Absolutely.

But then it just wouldn’t be Caffè Rosso.

So there you go… a love of Italy, a strange amount of red throughout our lives and one very drunken conversation on a balcony.

Not a bad way to start a café really!! ❤️
