About this menu

Just Italy Café is an Italian restaurant in North Shields, and its food is arranged in the traditional Italian courses. Stuzzichini (appetizers) and antipasti come first, followed by primi, the pasta dishes, and secondi for mains. Pizza includes diavola, while contorni gather the sides. Desserts, soft drinks and coffee and hot drinks close the menu.

For a smaller order, a starter such as bruschetta al pomodoro with insalata mista from the sides keeps things simple. Anyone after a fuller meal can head to the pasta, where ravioli ricotta e spinaci sits, or to the mains, with a side added. Pizza gives a straightforward order to make on its own. If you are only popping in for a drink, cappuccino and the rest of the coffee and hot drinks are there, along with soft drinks, and desserts such as homemade tiramisu are available for the end of a meal.
