Parrillan Borough Yards in Southwark

We found Bancone and we were very lucky. The place is pretty cool. Everyone was very friendly. We ordered food based on the waiter's instructions and everything was very tasty. Congratulations. I highly recommend it.

Got the Aglio e Olio (they all it Spaghetti alla chitarra) and the Herdwick Hogget and both were delicious. Highly recommend. Portion size could be bigger but it is a reasonably priced place for the quality of food you’re getting. Would recommend for a casual lunch or dinner. Not necessarily for a date night to impress.

Food, vibe and service is great. It's also an affordable option vs other restaurants in London Bridge.

I really enjoyed the food, was a bit skeptical as I had never been but everything was great. Went around Friday lunch time

To be honest, I was a little disappointed. I felt that every dish was very salty, and there was no other taste except saltiness.

Delicious pastas and wonderful service - we thoroughly enjoyed our lunch and were well taken care by Nicole who gave us great suggestions - we got the handkerchief pasta, the scallop and miso pasta and the Herdwick hogget pappardelle and they were all so unique and tasty. Dont forget the dessert - the Fior di latte - my only regret is having to share it with my family!

Delicious! Pasta focused restaurant with a menu offering many hand made pasta options, sides and drinks. Booking highly recommended.

The food, service, and atmosphere was amazing! Definitely would recommend the walnut pasta!

Excellent food and really great service. Lovely choice of dishes and brilliant team. Funny and they know what to suggest. Drinks were good. Delicious food and great experience dining here. I also need to say a huge THANK YOU to the manager who found my lost bag, held onto it and managed to contact me… I cannot thank her enough for this kindness. Seriously grateful. It shows how lovely and professional the team at this great restaurant are. Thank you Bancone

Like many restaurants around Borough Market, it's in a large railway arch, which has been beautifully fitted-out, with the bar and kitchen down one side. The food is as good as I remember the food in the "original" Bancone (by the Chandos in Covent Garden) being. For the quality of food, service and atmosphere, it's reasonably priced and there are some good wines for around £35 a bottle.

Absolutely amazing dinner, had a choice of 3 pastas and was more than enough. The taste of the food and drinks were really good and our server Benjamin was very pleasant and nice. Us as a couple, we are not so difficult with food as both of us work in hospitality but we really appreciate your service and care of guests.

Tried Bancone and had the silk handkerchiefs and pickled chilli pasta. The food was alright, I’d say around 3.5 to 4 stars. But we were not thrilled to see a £1 charity donation added to our bill without a heads-up. That the donation would be added was not highlighted on the menu. We were asked if we wanted to split the bill but not if we wanted to give a donation and it was automatically added. We got it removed in the end, but it felt a bit sneaky. Gift aid should be claimed by the individual giving the donation, not the organisation collecting it

Nicole our waitress was amazing, as was the food she advised :)

Benjamin was an absolute star, we felt very attended and the food was fantastic.

It’s so noisy. You just don’t need the boom boom boom throughout lunch. Sat with 2 other people and had to shout. Is it technique that if you do this people eat faster and go?

A must-visit Italian restaurant in Southwark. The cuisine is original and excellent! The welcome was excellent, I highly recommend.

This is a good pasta restaurant with flavourful dishes at a reasonable price- I would return. We had a slight issue with the crab pasta and the staff were fantastic and quickly resolved the matter. Unfortunately there seemed to be a lot of tension between staff with verbal arguments taking place infront of customers which is a shame. Overall good restaurant near main tourist areas.

I had a very good time there and the food was so good .service was excellent from Zuber ❤️

I had a good time there,the food was awesome and the service from zuber was too good

I had a very good time there...the food was so good and the service was too good from zuber.

Had one of the worst pasta dishes in my entire life, the Cornish crab cappellacci. Didn’t taste of crab at all and just super fishy. Brought it to the servers attentions and she didn’t care. Won’t be going back.

Really friendly staff and the pasta was great! Our server Mya gave some great recommendations I’ll definitely be coming back

First time in Bancone, absolutely loved the exprerience. We were sat on the counter, which allowed you to see how the food is being made. Food was delicious but service in particular was amazing. Staff were nice and welcoming. Our waiter Benjamin was super friendly and gave us great recommendations for food (Gorgonzola pasta dish, so rich and flavourful). Great quality food for very reasonable price and a beautiful venue. 10/10.

An outstanding dining experience. From the second we stepped through the door til we left the team at Bacone fulfilled every expectation. We were thrilled with Mya who was assigned to look after us. She literally made our night, recommending the most wonderful dishes and being a superb host. Prior to leaving we were already planning our next visit.

A great restaurant in borough market!! The Gorgonzola pasta is phenomenal, great ambiance for good value! Special thanks to Benjamin for his great service

I had a party with my friends at Bancone. The food was out of this world and so was the server. We had a nice chat with him, he was super friendly! His wine knowledge was very impressive. I wanted to make sure to mention his name. Thank you Zuber you made our night!

Great food, and great drinks. Especially enjoyed my time with the bartender that served me a Negroni (Tegan)

Had the most amazing time at Bancone London Bridge. The food was unbelievable best pasta I’ve ever had. Elisa was amazing such good service made my birthday ! Would deffo return. And recommend to everyone. Thank you so much Elisa !

WE HAD LUNCH THIS SUNDAY FOR 7 PEOPLE , ALL WAS BRILLIANT.FOOD AMAZING!!!! OUR WAITRESS MYA WAS REALLY KNOWLEDGEABLE & CHARMINGLY HELPFUL!!!!10 OUT OF 10. HIGHLY RECOMENDED. WELDONE ALL.

Food is amazing! Loved the vibe while dining at the bar and we absolutely enjoyed Elisa’s friendly attitude and service. We will definitely visit again!

Genuinely one of the best experiences I've had with service in London! My friends and I were served by Benjamin who was super friendly and approachable. Great food aside (tried a couple of pasta places around London and Bancone remains one of my favourites!), Benjamin really made it a memorable birthday occasion for us :) thank you so much!

Very good Italian restaurant. The pasta is homemade and the choice is varied. The dishes are excellent.

We arrived without a reservation and they let us eat at the bar. It was even better because we saw how the dishes were prepared! Incredible experience. The treatment that the different people gave us was excellent, especially Elisa who attended to us and recommended dishes. The food of 10. Quality price was perfect.

We go here regularly. Mostly have Nicole serve us. She knows my name, the wine I prefer and the service we get from her is fantastic. Love the food and the atmosphere. All the staff are helpful and welcoming. Definitely worth a visit.

Really loved this place. Although the portions are appropriate sized (not large) the taste was delicious, and also inventive menu's. Husband had charcoal pasta with scallop and I had a crab ravioli style dish. Price excellent. Service excellent. Staff also kindly recharged my phone in their office. Great atmosphere.

Nice Italian food in a reason price at London Zone 1. Advice to make a reservation to make sure you will get a table. Friendly staff and nice environment.

In all the years we've been going to Bancone, it was sad and surprising to have to send back my favourite pasta dish (Walnut Silk Handkerchiefs). It was unforgivably salty! That was a first. Thankfully, it was replaced without an issue and came back quickly and absolutely perfect, even warmer than the first. Just wonderful service. Later, ordered the fried artichoke, but the romesco was saltier! Inedible. Didn't have the time to have it sent back as had an event to attend. Not a great note to leave on. Either the head chef and his team are smokers to allow such salty food to go out, or the numbers are not what you'd like so need to make your patrons thirsty so they drink more. Whatever it is, it's a mistake. A year or so ago you were looking for investors to expand. If this is how you're expanding, allowing this inconsistency and low quality to be served, it will implode. Maybe that's what is going on. Can't say when I'll consider booking a table at Borough Yards again. And since Golden Square isn't a match to either Borough Yards or Covent Garden, we stopped going there ages ago, too. We've never had any issue with anything from the original venue in Covent Garden, just couldn't get in this time. Will definitely stick to tables there. Let's all hope and pray the quality stays there; I need my Walnut pasta ;-) The real positive is that the service team is most always fabulous and a pleasure. They cannot be faulted. Thank you. Clearly they're needed now more than ever.

Nice pasta restaurant close to Borough market. Interesting selection, friendly service, good food.

Pretty decent home made fresh pasta.

Gorgeous food and friendly, helpful service.

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.

Absolutely amazing food and drinks, my favourite being the pecan old fashion. Thank you so much to Marian for a lovely service, one of the best experiences I’ve received in a restaurant.

Delicious food, great service and very attentive staff. Nicole was out waitress and she really looked after us and explained the menu and was very attentive and friendly ( thanks Nicole!). We had a great time and really enjoyed the whole experience.

Sat at the counter and watched the talented chefs work. Big up the starter chef for great food, and Nicole for recommending great suggestions. Would bring my partner to the resto for Xmas!

Dined again with my family as Bacone is the go-to pasta place for us. Our servers Nicole & Benji were very nice and welcoming :)

We had dinner on a Saturday and were served by Benjamin. First we hesitated since the restaurant was fully booked and we had the only online option to be seated at the counter, although we did not regret our decision to go nonetheless. The counter seats were the perfect seating for a dinner for two since you have a perfect view on the open kitchen and the amazing dishes the kitchen crew composes live in front of you. From the sicilian speck to the delicious walnut and butter pasta, the food is simply outstanding. The drinks complement the food in great harmony and Benjamin was a fantastic host with great humour. We will definitely be back on our next visit to London!

HAD THE PORK CHOP AND THE BURRATA. SHOULD HAVE ORDERED THE LARDO AS WELL, SHOULD HAVE LISTENED TO OUR GREAT SERVER NICOLE!!

Really amazing handkerchief pasta, great service from Benjamin, was a lovely evening, well priced as well

Delicious Italian food, excellent service by Dana and a vibey setting - we loved the lard on toast, the fried artichoke, the pasta with ragù, the fish pasta (though portion is quite small), the pasta with garlic and chillies, and the silk handkerchiefs signature dish (which was outstanding). Excellent and attentive service, lovely cocktails and franciacorta, and a nice and vibrant setting made for an excellent meal. Will be back!

Good restaurant. Nice decoration.

My partner who’s never excited about food said he had an orgasm in his mouth. It’s our third time at Bancone, we’ve been to all 3 locations and they are all consistently spectacular. Favorite Italian restaurant in London. Please come to Paris!

Good food, well cooked and well looked after by service staff. Very polite and friendly. And atmosphere. You better book a table before you hop, especially weekends. Highly recommend this branch near borough market.

Mya was great, great food and service.

Maybe been eating at too many fine food restaurants....portions seem to have gotten smaller. Prices are still good.

Best pasta in London. And great prices

Fresh tasty well-prepared food in a great location

Absolutely incredible food and ambience! Benjamin was kind enough to give us some recommendations from the menu and he did not disappoint - will be back to try the other items as well :)

My friend and I shared the focaccia and fried artichoke. Absolutely delicious. I then ordered the bucatini cacio & pepe with truffle, and i loved it. Great experience, and our waiter, Benjamin, was fantastic. Thank you 😊

Fantastic service, managed to fit us in even though we hadn’t booked and sorted birthday limoncello without a problem, the lady with the red lipstick serving us was super friendly and food was brilliant will be returning

Super tasty food with a great ambiance! The service was great! Everyone was very welcoming and friendly. Dana who was serving us was amazing. Made great suggestions and made us feel very looked after. Deffo get the artichoke with a side of bread (Dana's suggestion), burrata is so creamy, silk handkerchiefs with truffle is gorgeous, and the desserts are so yummy. I look forward to eating here again xx

Great food , knowledge of the staff and venue all cannot be faulted!. Nicole taught us all about the wine and food . Not all waiting staff have this skill.

Amazing pasta restaurant second time there i hope to be able to go a third time

Stylish place with great dishes and fantastic pork chops. The service is extremely friendly and attentive. Nicole, in particular, does an outstanding job. We’ll gladly come again!

Amazing food and lovely staff, what a gem!

Just lovely ! Amazing food - it was slammed on a Monday night which is a good sign Recommend the artichoke , burrata and the crab ravioli - so yum !

We had a lovely meal at Bancone Borough Yards. The starters and pasta dishes we had were all delicious, with an excellent drink selection too. Our server, Benjamin, was great - he was extremely attentive and provided some helpful advice on what to order.

Fantastic place, drinks and vibe! We had an amazing black pasta with scallops.

Turned up without a booking but they managed to find us a booth for an hour.. happy with that . Had the handkerchief parcels and the crab...both stunning. Could of eaten a bowlfull of both sauces. Gread atmosphere and great service from Dana, made us very welcome and explained each dish. But all the staff really friendly. Will certainly return.

Great dinner, and the desserts as well. One of the top places to eat pasta in London, and the service is extremely friendly and attentive.

My wife and I had a great meal at Bancone this Friday night, food was delicious and fresh and the service from Benjamin was fantastic. Looking forward to our next visit!

We had a wonderful dinner here last week. Our server Benjamin was lovely and made excellent recommendations. The fried artichoke is a must.

La comida era fantástica, y el personal era increíblemente acogedor. Originalmente me detuve solo para tomar una copa, pero los increíbles platos de aspecto eran imposibles de resistir, y terminé quedándome a cenar también.

Benji was great. He not only celebrated my Dad’s birthday excellently but continue to serve with exceptional service and a smile. He always looked after us along with all other of his tables. Overall the restaurant and our server were incredible. Would recommend.

Such good value for food with lovely staff and and atmosphere

Service isn't great, I was on my own and given a counter seat - I asked if I could have a table as I have a bad back but I was told no as the tables were all taken. However, when I left I counted 8 empty tables. The disabled toilet seat was completely broken, I don't think they cater well here for anyone who isn't a fit and healthy person. The food was good but not as good as Golden Square. The staff clearly were still preparing the restaurant until at least 1230, I would have expected them to be ready as soon as they opened. All in all I won't be back.

Delicious/authentic Italian food and very friendly staff that were very helpful. Cost friendly. Would definitely recommend. Shout out to Benjamin :)

Go here to eat pasta. Every pasta dish we had was exemplar! Coupled with decent wine at very reasonable prices it’s a damn good option. Nice setting but would benefit from linen table cloths as a quick fix for the rather loud atmosphere. The Gorgonzola, Swiss Chard, Pappardelle, Guanciale was bloody excellent 👌🏻 and the stand out dish along with the Praline Cannolo, Crystallised Hazelnuts for pudding. Yum

Lovely place! Definitely recommend. Benjamin was very friendly and made us feel at home.

The food was great, very generous portions. Our waiter Benjamin was very friendly and attentive!

We started with the sourdough which was lovely and soft with a crunchy salted crust. The olive oil was very fragrant and just perfect. I had a nice citrusy and bitter non-alcoholic drink I've forgotten the name of. Would highly recommend. The silk handkerchiefs with autumn truffle was my main and it was delicious. You could definitely taste the truffle but it wasn't overpowering. The texture of the pasta was lovely and it was great for mopping up the sauce made of a blend of egg yolk, walnut butter and so much parmesean cheese. I was able to try all 3 desserts and my favourite was the chocolate with lime. Rich, dense, delicious. Not something you can't get elsewhere but you won't be disappointed. The Creme caramello was a fun texture and I enjoyed the coffee flavour. I wasn't a big fan of the pistachio cannolo, there was a strong almond flavour that I don't personally enjoy. Overall, lovely food and service. The venue was slightly loud but that is to be expected for dining at peak hour on a week night. 6.30pm dinner, Thursday 24 October, table for 6.

If you want some good pasta this is a place to come to. The pasta and quantity was well worth it and the wine was very tasty. Also our waiter Benjamin was very friendly and made us feel comfortable in the restaurant. Definitely coming back!!

We had a great time! Right from the moment we sat down, Benjamin was very attentive, made fantastic recommendations and took the time to check in during the meal. Recommend dining here for pasta if you can!

Amazing food at reasonable price for London . Highly recommend “silk handkerchief” and “chargrilled pork chop” . Our server Benjamin is attentive and enthusiastic , enhance the over all dining experience .

I’ve already visited Bancone twice during my stay in London! The chefs are serious and professional about their cooking. The taste and price of the handkerchief pasta are both excellent.

Silk handkerchiefs is amazing. Pork chop is a bit dry.

Four of us went there for this evening. Love the atmosphere not too quiet or too nosy. Marian happily seated us and provided an excellent friendly service explaining the dishes when asked and even offered to take photos for us after seeing my daughter taking photos of food. Already I am arranging to bring my in-laws who will be coming to London next week. By far, the best Italian restaurant for me. Their dishes are a hugh different from the traditional Italian pastas that I had before. And the desserts especially the caramel are to die for. Highly recommend the Scallop, Miso, Pickled Fennel, Charcoal Tagliolini, Fried Artichoke, Crème Caramello, Coffee, Buckwheat and the Handkerchief. Bancone, I will be back to try the rest of the menu. Marian is a keeper, he deserves a pat on the shoulders and a pay rise or promotion for being a first class server.

Had such a good experience here. Pasta was delicious and unbelievably good value for somewhere so central. Had the chocolate desert which was also amazing. We sat at the counter and it was great to watch the chefs making the dishes. Service was top notch - especially from Benjamin! Can’t wait to return!

Wanted a bit of pasta on Friday, and this place hit the spot. Had the gorgonzola pasta was lovely. We sat at the counter, and the atmosphere was great. Would highly recommend.

Una experiencia horrible. Servicio terrible y desdeñoso. Varias partes del pedido no fueron entregadas. Intentaron imponer un cargo por el peor servicio imaginable. Muy caro por no mucho.

Had a really lovely time with amazing food as per usual. Our waiter Benjamin was attentive and gave excellent recommendations for our meal -Thank you!

Waiting a bit better coctail menu (real Negroni!) but the Food is amazing! BEST place in London!

Absolutamente horrible experiencia. Era nuestra primera vez y será la última. Pedimos entrantes... pero nunca llegamos. Finalmente, cuando decidieron traerlo fue con el principal. Obviamente lo devolvimos. Mi compañero en medio de su cena pidió una copa y de nuevo nunca llegó hasta después de que pedimos la cuenta. El encargado dejó la bebida en la mesa después de que le pidieramos la cuenta. Ella vino a buscar el pago y dijo que tomamos la bebida de la factura por ti. Mi pareja dijo por supuesto que ni siquiera lo he bebido y no lo quiero. Quería con mi comida. Su respuesta fue: bueno, hoy está muy ocupado. Si es nuestra culpa que el restaurante esté muy ocupado en el centro de Londres. Ella se despertó y volvió para que paguemos y en nuestra factura tenía cargo por servicio. Pedimos que lo quitaran. Pagamos y ni una sola palabra de disculpa. Este lugar es muy caro por un servicio terrible. Hemos estado en tantos lugares y pagado mucho más de lo que cobran, pero el servicio, la ubicación, el ambiente, la comida todo eso y más merecía.

Esperé 35 minutos para 2 cócteles muy promedio. Nos apresuraron a pagar y nos recibieron con una pobre excusa para la espera mientras veíamos a otros conseguir bebidas antes que nosotros.

One fine lunch accompanied by excellent service and great attention to detail. The best “cacio e pepe” we’ve ever had even though we recently ate at one of Rome’s best and most renowned restaurant. We were also lucky to catch the truffle season 👌🏻 Special thanks to Benjamin, who made our son’s day with his extra generous portion of parmigiano 🧀

We loved our dinner at Bancone! We had an early evening reservation before other evening activities but the atmosphere was still amazing. We were greeted by a very nice hostess who also served as our server for the first half of our time there. She was overly polite, gave us great recommendations (which we listened to & were glad we did), and consistently checked in on us - something I don’t feel you get much of in Europe. We wanted to Michelin experience while not having to spend a ton. This definitely met those expectations & did so at a very affordable price. For drinks, we had the classic negroni & dirty martini. Both were delicious & affordable for London pricing. As recommended by the server, we had the lardo on toast & cauliflower salad as appetizers (both very delicious) and silk handkerchiefs & scallop and charcoal tagliolini as our main courses. We are still dreaming of the pastas - they were incredible! Definitely recommend a visit. We didn’t necessarily need a reservation given the time of day we were there but would recommend one to ensure you get a spot as it was starting to fill in as we were leaving.

As lovely as other Bancone venue Handkerchief with egg yolk and truffle (autumn only) is amazing £7 negroni are simple but efficient!

Great gastronomic experience and cocktails! Special thanks to Christos for his service and recommendations! He was really helpful and explanatory!

Amazing experience. The server was so friendly when me, my bf and his friend came into the restaurant. The food selection here is amazing and I found out their menu differs in each Bancone restaurant around London which makes me want to go to their other restaurants. The pasta options were amazing. I got the chicken liver pasta and would definitely go for the miso scallop pasta when I come back here.

One of the best meals in years. If you like pasta this is the place

Good food and service but small portions for the prices. The meat dish I had felt a bit stingy.
