After nearly 10 wonderful years, it’s time for us to say goodbye.

With grateful hearts, we want to let you know that our last day is tomorrow Sunday 26th July 9am -3pm .

When dad and I first opened Biscotteria in Carlton North, we dreamed of creating a place where people could enjoy a taste of Italy offering delicious sweets, great coffee, and feel like part of the family. Thanks to all of you, that dream became so much more than we ever imagined.

To our incredible customers, neighbours, local businesses, and the Carlton North community—thank you. Your loyalty, kindness, and support over the past decade have meant the world to us. We’ve celebrated milestones with you, shared countless conversations, watched families grow, and made friendships that we’ll treasure forever.

Running Biscotteria has been an absolute privilege, and while it’s bittersweet to close this chapter, we do so with immense gratitude for every person who walked through our doors and made our little café feel like home.

As we handover to its new owners, we wish them every success on this exciting new journey. We know they’ll welcome you with the same passion as we’ve always had.

This is not the end, but a new beginning- watch this space for what comes next!

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for being part of our journey. We will always look back on these years with fondness and appreciation.

Grazie mille for being such a special part of our journey.

Claudine, Joe and team 🇮🇹
