Italian Restaurant

Located in Guildford High Street, in front of the Guildhall, Olivetto’s building dates back to Elizabethan times when it is believed to have been the house of the Town Mayor. The classical interior still evokes its traditional atmosphere, featuring details such as open beams, wooden floors and a very attractive bar where you can enjoy a drink before your meal. This convivial ambience also extends to the front dining area, where your meal can be enjoyed overlooking the High Street and famous Guildford clock. In this setting full of history, a truly interesting evening can be enjoyed together with a fantastic meal prepared by Olivetto’s chefs. In summer, you can also enhance your experience with the outdoor seating area, where you can enjoy the beauty of Guildford whilst sipping a glass of Italian wine accompanied by a selection of the restaurant’s traditional Italian meals.
