Sicool Food Sicilian Café & Bar

Proper Sicilian café tucked into The Shambles serving excellent espresso and arancini that actually taste like they're from Palermo.

You'll find Sicool wedged into one of Guildford's most characterful corners—The Shambles, that wonderfully wonky medieval street where half-timbered buildings lean in like gossiping locals. It's the kind of place that makes you forget you're steps from the High Street's chains. The counter's always busy with people grabbing thick espresso and pastries, and the smell of proper Italian coffee hits you before you've even opened the door. Their arancini are genuinely brilliant—crispy golden shells giving way to creamy risotto—the sort of thing that makes you wonder why more places don't do street food this well.
