Our thirteenth year in business, still independently owned and managed...
...unlucky for some, however not for us, a great start to the year another highest achievement award from The AA guide in recognition of our quality wine menu.
Probably the toughest year in business we have seen. Prices from the strong euro has sent our costs soaring, yet with the credit crunch, we have been diligent in keeping prices low.
 We have reflected this in our new wine menu with these tougher times, we have held prices where possible and brought in more wines for under £20 with great value for money!
This year brought a dream to reality with the publication of our own book. Not only a recipe book, Strada della Nonna, is a travel guide and lifestyle book showing the history of Nonna’s and some of our favourite recipes and wineries in Italy. Receiving rave reviews with photography from Jodi Hinds, there are books available for you to have a look through whilst enjoying your dinner or dessert. Take one home today only £14.95.
The most important part of Nonna’s is the team...
We are huge believers in training and great wine and this year has seen our greatest investment in both.
Gian Bohan (Director) started his diploma level in wines and spirits through the Wines, Spirits and Education Trust (WSET). The 2- year course is a specialist qualification where detailed knowledge is combined with commercial factors and a thorough system for the professional evaluation of wines and spirits.
Maurizio Mori (Director), Daniel Jackson (General Manager) and Stefano Buralli (Restaurant Manager) have all been put through the WSET course at advanced level.
We are also proud that our duty manager, Pasquale Pollio has completed the Italian Association of Sommeliers course a professional qualification to become a sommelier.
The majority of our front of house team have also been on the WSET intermediate course, which is a look into the world of wines and spirits. It gives you the knowledge to see how to taste wines. We have fantastic links with WSET and with one of the top teachers in the country. If you want to progress into the world of wines, we can organise an intermediate course in Sheffield or an informal wine tasting at your work. For more information please contact Daniel@nonnas.co.uk.
