Little Italy has quickly become a favourite spot in Leadgate.
Run by Nico and Dica, with the friendly support of Tendai, the restaurant has been part of Leadgate for the past two years.
With their roots in Northern Italy and experience running restaurants in Gateshead and Newcastle, they’ve brought authentic Italian cooking to our doorstep. Families, friends, and neighbours regularly gather there to celebrate special occasions or simply enjoy good food together.
It’s more than a restaurant—it’s a place where the community comes together.

From Northern Italy to our tables; Nico and Dica of Little Italy have really built something special.
