Council attributes initial high figures to low testing volumes, not a borough-wide surge.
The launch menu will feature three tiramisu varieties. The original version uses Estate Dairy cream and dark roasted espresso. The pistachio DOP version incorporates Sicilian Bronte pistachios from Mount Etna, topped with pistachio drizzle and a pistachio crumb. The dark chocolate option combines Valrhona chocolate with Maldon sea salt. All flavours will be available in both alcoholic and non‑alcoholic forms, as reported by Time Out London.
Location and Setting
The café occupies the premises that previously housed Old Spike Roastery, which is moving to a site near London Bridge. Marrone’s new home is less than a five‑minute walk from Piccadilly Circus and within easy reach of Mayfair, Oxford Street and Chinatown, according to Time Out London.

Vehicle and Future Plans
Ahead of the opening, a Marrone‑branded 1972 Piaggio Ape will be parked outside the shop. Founder Giancarlo Fanigliulo originally intended to use the vehicle for mobile service but, after encountering difficulties, it will remain stationary for now, with plans to return it to the road later, as noted by Time Out London.
Seasonal tiramisu flavours are slated to appear on the menu after launch, though specific dates have not been disclosed. The café’s opening on 8 August 2026 marks the next step for the brand in London’s dessert scene.
