The silk handkerchiefs ‘carbonara’ could mend a broken heart - rich, comforting, and irresistibly moreish. Service was attentive and the atmosphere warm and intimate, making it an ideal date spot. That said, the cocktails were underwhelming in quantity - full price for what felt like half a pour. Next time, I’ll likely opt for a glass of wine instead.

Restaurant recommended by the Michelin Guide. We initially found the service lacking in attention. Although the cauliflower salad was very (too) salty, the other dishes selected were delicious (asparagus romesco, gnocchi, and carbonara). Respectable value for money. Significant hygiene issue: a waiter behind the bar prepared two cocktails, he used a straw to validate the taste (common practice)… the problem is that he used the same straw (which he had just put in his mouth) to validate the taste of the second cocktail 🤢

I used to be such a lover of Bancone and have been soooo many times but was really quite disappointed this time. Our starter came after our mains, which seemed to really confused staff, then one of our mains was served cold and you could tell the pasta has been sat there a while and the sauce had soaked into the pasta (the Nduja ragu). Its a dish I've had a number of times before so I knew it should have been better. I did flag this to the waitress but she said oh ok I'll tell the kitchen, but she never actually told the kitchen, nor did she apologise or offer a replacement or anything. The silk handkerchiefs were as always, excellent. Desert was really disappointing- we shared the canoli (which was meant to be pistachio but jsut taked like fake almond and too sweet) And the coffee pannacotta was flavourless and not creamy at all - tasted more like water. Its a shame because at the end the waitress didn't acknowledge what I'd flagged at all - we weren't offered replacement food or any sort of compensation. Overall really sad about what *was* one of my favourite reaurants and both the food and the service let this experience down.

No cell signal in the restaurant. Guest wifi is not working (“authentication failed”). Uncomfortable, cramped bar seats with no hooks to put your bag and coat. Pork chop, the only non-pasta main on the menu, was unavailable. Appetizer came at the same time as our pasta mains. One server who is also the bartender for the entire upper floor of 20 seats. We were in and out in under 20 minutes. Good pasta but I definitely won’t come back.

I tried the Roman artichoke as a starter and it was absolutely addictive, the spicy pappardelle in the picture were a generous portion and incredibly flavoured. I have tried both this location and the Covent Garden one and I preferred this one as it felt less chaotic and it was easier to talk. Great service from our waitress (I can’t remember her name, she had dark hair and was Italian, maybe from Sicily?). Being Italian as well, she made me feel at home and she was really funny too! Highly recommend, would definitely come back.

A much bigger Bancone than the other two venues. We got a table booked a week before for Sunday lunch (so easier to score a reservation). Everything was amazing! The egg yolk pasta hankerchiefs were the best pasta I've ever had (ive had it before-buts it's just so good!) the burrata with green beans was also lovely.

The food and decor is lovely but I’m afraid I wouldn’t return. The whole experience felt rushed - the sitting is only 90mins, our table was not ready until literally bang on the hour so no chance of a drink beforehand, and after 75 minutes we were already being reminded that our sitting was coming to an end and ended up finishing our wine standing up. Others may have no problem with this, but not for me.

Wonderful place to have fresh pasta at very reasonable pricing in London! This one is located by the entrance of busy Borough market. Ambience was very nice, staff were so efficient and friendly. Mostly, the quality of pasta was a top notch. They make fresh pasta on site and they know how to cook perfect pastas. Handkerchief silk pasta had smooth and creamy texture and had egg on top. Never had anything like that. I loved my spaghetti w chili and garlic. It had spicy kick to it. Bucatini Cacio e Pepe was cooked perfect. Cauliflower salad was very interesting. It was sliced thinly and very tasty. Highly recommend this restaurant when you are in London.

The food was excellent, as always, but unfortunately, we were treated quite rudely during our visit. About 40 minutes after we sat down, the bill was brought to our table without us asking for it, which felt very abrupt. On top of that, we were interrupted two or three times by staff asking if we needed anything else, which gave us the impression that we were being rushed to leave. I’ve visited other Bancone locations in London and have never experienced anything like this before. I hope the team at the Borough Yards branch reconsiders how they treat their guests, as this was disappointing.

We tried the signature dish — Silk Handkerchiefs with Walnut Butter and Confit Egg Yolk — along with the Scallop with miso-pickled fennel and a hint of charcoal and chilli. The handmade pasta was delicately smooth and cooked perfectly al dente. The textures and flavors were beautifully balanced. The atmosphere and service added to an already excellent experience. To top it off, the pricing was surprisingly reasonable for the quality. Would definitely come again!

A machine that wishes it were an elite restaurant. They want to get as many people as possible to feel the experience, but in the shuffle, they forget to check on empty glasses, uncleared plates, or bills not yet paid. The service is enthusiastic, but management seems to expect something impossible of its frontline staff. Cheerfulness cannot make up for lack of capacity

Fab place to catch up with some old friends! I often avoid Italian restaurants because the menu always seems to be the same and I could make much of it myself at home. HOWEVER, it was lovely and refreshing to go somewhere that is utilising unique combinations with different ingredients, pasta shapes, and accompaniments than I am not used to seeing. The pasta was also so fresh and well cooked, plus we were seated right next to the chefs which is always lovely to watch. Plus the staff were so friendly and helpful and the atmosphere was great - really busy on a Thursday evening though I would definitely recommend booking ahead of time. I would 100% go back - in fact I need to because there are a couple of dishes I that we didn't order that I've decided I now need to try!

Went here for my birthday dinner and had an incredible experience with the meal and most of the staffs. However when we paid, there was already an extra £1 billed for a donation. It wasn’t much and i didn’t really mind as it was my birthday anyways. But I’m new in London so out of curiosity i asked if this can be taken out, and the waitress replied “you can if you REALLY want to. It’s only £1 anyways”. We found that quite rude. Nevertheless, food and atmosphere was amazing.

Bancone is one of my favourite pasta restaurants in London, and this outpost near Borough Market is no different (having previously only visited the Covent Garden location). It is in a large space so has a lot of tables, and it wasn't hard to get a table on a Sunday afternoon. I had the lardo on toast, the pasta with Thai basil and chilli and the fior de latte, all of which were excellent. The food came fairly quickly and the service was friendly.

Busy restaurant with a nice atmosphere on two floors. The service was quick and friendly and they were happy to explain the menu, which wasn't always clear. The food itself was fantastic though we only had bread & olives for starter and two pasta dishes for main - spicy pork ndjua ragu and the Herdwick hogget (lamb) pappardelle. Along with a couple of beers, a Moretti and a Lucky Saint alcohol free. Overall a lovely meal in a nice atmosphere and resonably priced.

We had a fantastic dining experience at Bancone London Bridge. Kicking things off with a crisp, refreshing glass of Prosecco and a bowl of plump, flavorful olives set the perfect tone for the evening. The fried artichoke was delightfully crispy, adding a lovely contrast to the rest of the meal. For mains, the spicy pork ragu pasta was rich, hearty, and packed with depth, while the Herdwick hogget pasta was beautifully tender, showcasing the quality of the ingredients. Both dishes highlighted Bancone’s expertise in fresh, handmade pasta. Definitely a must visit.

As we were a large group, we had the private dining area upstairs, and we had a lot of dishes that we shared. We had the burrata, confit tomato and basil, grilled artichoke, romesco, and chervil. Focaccia, silk handkerchiefs, walnut butter, confit egg yolk, roasted pumpkin ravioli, squid with charcoal tagliolini, and the spicy pork ragu. Every single dish was well cooked and served at a good temperature. The service was attentive and helpful. January 2025 Back to Bancone to enjoy once again their best handmade pasta and it definitely hasn't disappointing us. The service was outstanding, friendly and nothing was too much. We have enjoyed our pasta dishes, so much that we have ordered a third one and shared.

The atmosphere and service were good. The service was very attentive. Great place to eat delicious food and isolate yourself from people for a while. We do not need to make a reservation and they accept Walk-Ins Donkey style pasta with garlic is a great option for those who like something simple but with a lot of flavor. The price is fair, just the portions were small I recommend the burrata and the cacio e pepe pasta. If you are looking to eat late, they have lunch after 3pm, so it is a good option compared to other options nearby that close the kitchen until dinner. They have cocktails and wines from Italy, however I consider that they are a little overpriced compared to what can be found for better value in the area. Highly recommended and ideal for a family environment or with a partner. You can eat at the bar which makes it entertaining if you are looking for a fun experience.

The truffle and butter dish was something outstanding. I had to order another one because it was super tasty. The real Italian vibes, few good ingredients and a lot of taste. I advise this restaurant to everyone. Well done bancone !

Modern Italian restaurant in Borough Market. Buzzy atmosphere. Open plan kitchen, so you can watch your food being prepared. Starters and pasta were delicious. Portions are small. Highly recommend the burrata to start, gnocchi and alla chittara pasta with truffle.

We stumbled upon this cute little restaurant on a busy Saturday night. It was packed but the hostess got us seated upstairs within 5m. Me and my finance had the cauliflower salad, artichoke, scallops with charcoal spaghetti, spicy sausage ragu. The ingredients were super high end, we got served by Benjamin. We really loved talking to Benjamin. His service was incredible. Quick, friendly, efficient and fun. Thank you Ben! We will definitely be coming back!! We inhaled the food so fast, didn’t have a chance to take photos lol - the bill was quite reasonable considering the quality.

Exceptional service, outstanding food, and a vibrant atmosphere. Every dish impressed, the service was flawless. Getting a reservation in the restaurant area can prove tricky, but the bar seating, which is often available, felt like the place to be seated. Full of patrons and energy. Even the bread was elevated to something memorable — well worth returning for.

Amazing food and service. Highly recommend the octopus. Great price, we shared 6 dishes plus bread between 2, a bottle of house red, and got a dessert each and spent about ~£110. Will definitely be going back.

You’ll eat what you’re given! I went as part of a group of 8 ( I didn’t book) For this many people you have to have a set menu- no veering from the path. Too much tomato bread padding out the meal. The cod was very nice. The chips were from a frozen bag. The pudding was a large crème caramel to share for the table. Not everyone’s favourite but the server was adamant and not particularly pleasant about it. We ended up ordering extra puddings at extra cost. I won’t be rushing back

It was my second time there and I can say it was a mistake to go there. These are the worst tapas I’ve ever had. Most of the food looks and rates as if it’s straight from a can. Do not go there!

This was without a doubt the worst Spanish food I have ever had the displeasure of eating. To add injury to insult it wasn’t even cheap. Avoid this hell hole at all costs! Arroz brut served with basmati rice. Prawns where served at a temperature hotter than the temperature of a nuclear reactor. The croquetas were circular which I have never seen before in my life. The only saving grace with the wine was drinkable!
