An Authentic Taste

Rich in Italian dining history

Welcome to Nonno Trattoria, a true gem in the heart of Hayes, Bromley, where we proudly serve authentic Italian cuisine in a traditional and inviting environment. Our passion for Italian culinary excellence is deeply rooted in the rich history and expertise of our founding family.

Owned by Egidio Marino, a seasoned veteran with over 40 years of experience in the industry, Nonno Trattoria is a testament to his unwavering dedication and commitment to bringing the finest Italian flavours to the local community. 

Egidio’s journey began in 1980 when he opened his first restaurant, ‘Don Giovanni,’ on Addington Road. It was here that he rapidly established a loyal clientele who continue to follow his culinary journey to this day. Egidio has also owned and operated several well-known local Italian restaurants, such as Zi Teresa in Beckenham and Gi in West Wickham.
