Silvios

Since 1954, Silvios has served central London as an independent, family run coffee bar, now firmly rooted in the busy streets of Marylebone. Built on traditional Italian coffee culture, the business blends long experience with a relaxed, city friendly pace. Guests step into a compact but welcoming space where the focus is on flavour, speed and warm human contact. Freshly ground Italian coffee, generous sandwiches, salads, panini and simple hot dishes give local workers, shoppers and residents plenty of choice for breakfast, lunch or an afternoon break. Many customers call in daily for their regular order, knowing it will be remembered and made consistently. With efficient counter service and clear pricing, the shop suits short breaks from nearby offices as well as slower visits after time spent around Oxford Street. The atmosphere reflects the character of Marylebone itself, combining international energy with a friendly, village like feeling that keeps people coming back.

Family business with loyal local following

Behind the counter, the team at Silvios draws on decades of hospitality experience, with staff trained to move quickly while keeping service friendly and personal. The business trades as Silvio’s Quality Sandwich Bars Limited, a registered UK company, which supports a clear and accountable approach to food safety, hygiene standards and day to day operations. The menu highlights freshly prepared sandwiches, pastries, salads and hot dishes, with ingredients chosen for reliable quality and generous portions that represent good value in central London. Regulars trust the team to handle busy periods smoothly, from the morning coffee rush to lunchtime queues, while still greeting customers by name whenever possible. Online reviews consistently mention the quality of the coffee, the range of takeaway lunch options and the warm, bustling atmosphere. Over time, Silvios has become a recognised Marylebone coffee spot for nearby offices, local residents and visitors looking for an independent alternative to the usual chains.
