Tiamo

Italian$

Doing its thing since 1978, we have fallen in love with Tiamo a thousand times over. It’s been go-to spot for uni students to enjoy tumblers of red wine and cheap lasagne. More recently, it’s a reliable place to choose between pasta, pizza and the daily rabbit special, with multi-generational groups who don’t mind waiting on the footpath as the world wanders by.
