About us

Caffè Nero was founded in 1997 by Gerry Ford who had a vision to bring a continental style coffee house experience to the UK and beyond. Our philosophy is really very simple: Premium Italian coffee. A warm and welcoming atmosphere. Good food and great personal service. Caffè Nero has continued to increase its store numbers, sales and profitability year on year and become a familiar neighbourhood meeting place in towns and cities across the UK, Europe and US. As store numbers have increased, Caffè Nero has built a strong brand identity built on premium espresso-based gourmet coffee, authentic Italian food products and a relaxing atmosphere in every store.

    The first full week back in 2025, done! 👏🏼🙌🏼 Getting back into routine can be hard, which is why at Caffè Nero we’ve launched some great winter warmers to make it just that little bit easier! 💙 Our savoury food range just keeps getting better (a little biased maybe 😏), but I am super proud of the final projects Richard Burke and I have delivered! 👩🏼🤝👨🏻 Starting with the first high street coffee shop Gluten Free toastie…! 🥪 Brimming with oozing melted emmental and cheddar, zingy sundried tomatoes and a fresh vibrant basil pesto. It is toasted to perfection and suitable for GF customers! Our last Italian adventure has yielded one of my favourite products to date… 🇮🇹 🌮 Our brand new Italian flatbread filled with succulent mortadella slices, creamy stracciatella cheese and a fresh rocket and lemon dressing! Our flatbread is made using Italian 00 flour and eats like a fluffy folded pizza - YUM! 🥣 And not to forget building on our outstanding porridge relaunch from last winter with the perfect new recipe to add to the range - Honey, pecan & dates. Pairs perfectly for breakfast with our customer favourite, Honey Oat Latte 🍯🍯🍯

    Regional Manager Caffè Nero

    ☕️ INCOMING!!! Proudly presenting your newest Caffè Nero store, open today in Manchester’s iconic St Ann’s Square! With 60 covers, it might not be the biggest of stores but as we’ve always said here at Nero, we never aim to be biggest…just the best 💪🏼 The design and fitout is truly beautiful and big credit goes to the design and building team that created this gem from an empty shell a couple of weeks ago to become store #104 in my Northern Region. It’s a great time to come and have a look with the relaunch of our Single Origin roast from #Brazil 🇧🇷 yesterday, not to mention our new Italian 🇮🇹 Blueberry Mousse cake and Maritozzi cream bun! The location really is fantastic and we’re very proud to be in the square where the city came together to support each other in 2017 ❤️. Come and have brew, everyone’s welcome! #nero #coffee #Manchester #DontLookBackInAnger
