Farretti

We prepare authentic Italian dishes that you can cook at home.

One of the loveliest things I hear about our lasagna is that it’s enjoyed by both children and older customers.

I always think that says a lot.

Children have such honest taste - they don’t pretend to like something just to be polite.

And older people, after a lifetime of cooking, eating, and knowing what real food should taste like, are wonderful judges too.

So when both generations enjoy the same lasagna, it feels like a very special compliment.

Thank you, as always, for the lovely feedback. It means so much.

At Farretti, we don't really sell lasagna and tiramisù.

What we sell is peace of mind.

Cooking for yourself on a Tuesday evening is one thing. If it goes wrong, there is always tomorrow.

Cooking for family, friends or a crowd is different. When guests are coming, there is a responsibility. Most people know the golden rule: don't try something for the first time when it really matters.

That's where we can help.

Week after week, month after month, year after year, we make the same dishes with the same care and attention to detail. We don't chase trends. We focus on doing a few things exceptionally well.

Every week starts with the same goal: finding the freshest ingredients we can, preparing them carefully, and making every tray as if it were for our own table.

Our two pillars are classic lasagna and classic tiramisù.

Alongside them, we also make vegetable lasagna, gluten-free options, aubergine parmigiana, chicken Milanese, and seasonal tiramisù variations such as strawberry and limoncello.

But our identity has never really been about the recipes.

It's about helping people save time.

It's about taking one worry off your list.

It's about knowing that when family arrive, friends gather, or an event needs feeding, the food is already taken care of.

Simple food. Made properly.

So you can focus on the people around the table.

Time flies, doesn’t it?

Sometimes I realise that while I’ve been busy cooking, filling the vending machines and keeping Farretti going week after week… I haven’t said much here.

But Farretti is still here 🤍

For a family meal, a last-minute dinner, a birthday, a gathering, a little celebration - or simply one lasagna for yourself when you want something good, honest and comforting on the table.

Lasagna feeds the body.
Tiramisù feeds the spirit.

And I still believe there is something very special about that moment when the tiramisù comes out… and the smile appears.

The vending machines are here 24/7, full of Farretti favourites, ready whenever you need them.

Thank you, as always, for remembering us, recommending us, and bringing Farretti to your tables.

Lasagna and tiramisù did not become classics by accident.
They became classics because people kept loving them, kept making them, and kept coming back to them.
Some things simply never lose their place 🤍

Lasagna was never meant to be fancy.

It’s meant to be deep, rich and satisfying.

At Farretti every tray begins with a generous layer of slow-cooked ragù - thick, savoury and unapologetically meaty. Around 300g of meat in every tray for two portions, because when you love meat you want to taste it.

But every good ragù begins quietly.

Onions, celery and carrots soften gently together - the classic Italian soffritto - releasing their sweetness and building the base of the sauce.

Then the lasagna takes shape.

A thick layer of ragù.
Pasta.
Silky béchamel.

We like to keep the flavours distinct - the deep savouriness of the ragù and the creamy softness of the béchamel.

And finally, one more generous layer of ragù on top, finished with slices of fresh mozzarella that melt beautifully in the oven.

We prepare the lasagna ready for you to bake at home.
30 minutes at 180°C if fresh, about an hour if frozen.

We don’t get to smell the final result…

…but we trust you do. And we’re very happy for you.

Chicken Milanese (spaghetti approved 🤍)

Some of you told us you serve our chicken milanese with tomato spaghetti.
We approve 😀

You can enjoy it just as it is - crispy, sliced over spaghetti with a little tomato sauce.
Or, if you feel like it, it’s very easy to turn it into a quick parmigiana (like in the photo):
while the spaghetti cooks, spread a little tomato sauce and mozzarella over the cutlet, then pop it in the oven.

Crispy, saucy, comforting - proper Italian-at-home food.

This weekend you’ll find plenty of chicken milanese in the fresh vending machine, or from our kitchen today (11–5pm) and tomorrow (11–2pm).
We’re also adding small tubs of our tomato 🍅sauce to make it even easier 🤍

Your kitchen, your rules.

A Poem From Our Kitchen ☺

Good food has a way
of softening the day,
turning grey weather
into something okay.

A pause.
A deep breath.
A moment to stay,
where worries grow quieter
and drift away.

From our kitchen
to your table -
slow-cooked, honest, and true.

This is simply our way
of thinking of you.

With love,
Farretti 💙

A small, honest note from me

Some of you have asked - and some of you may already know - that I’ve stopped making bread and pizzas.

This wasn’t an easy decision, and it wasn’t taken lightly.

Bread has been part of my life for over 20 years here at Langham - and for many years before that in Italy, where I ran a restaurant and pizzeria. Ciabatta was where Farretti began, and for a long time it meant night shifts, two-day fermentations, watching dough like a living thing, and doing a job that was skilled but also very demanding - and impossible for me to delegate.

Over time, I realised that although bread and pizzas were loved, they were no longer sustainable for me to make in small quantities - physically, financially, or emotionally.

Lasagna, tiramisù and the other dishes you now see sell far more, and focusing on them is what allows Farretti to continue rather than close altogether.

I know some of you will be disappointed, and for that I’m truly sorry - especially those who made bread or pizza part of a weekly ritual.

Please know this choice comes from wanting to keep Farretti alive, honest, and well-cared-for, not from taking anything away lightly.

Thank you for the years of support, kindness, and loyalty. I don’t take any of it for granted 🤍

JANUARY IS A VEGAN MONTH 🌱

Vegan people often choose this path from a place of deep care - for animals, for the planet, and for others.
That takes heart, awareness, and consistency, and it deserves respect.

You don’t have to be vegan to appreciate that mindset.
Sometimes a small gesture - like choosing a vegan dish - is a simple way to say “I see you, and I care too.”

So for January, we’ve made something special:
🥬 Vegan veggie lasagna - da leccarsi i baffi (Italian for “absolutely delicious”)
Comforting, generous, and full of flavour… proof that plant-based food can be pure joy.

You’ll find it:
• in our vending machine
• on our online shop
• or by popping into the kitchen in Lodsworth

Whether you’re vegan, curious, or just open-hearted - this one’s for you 💚
