Bancone Borough Yards

​Bancone in Borough Yards is such a gem. Don’t let the simple menu fool you - it’s some of the best pasta I’ve had in a long time. You can really taste the quality of the fresh ingredients. The artichoke starter was fantastic with it's sauce, and the pasta dishes were spot on. Service was super attentive, and the whole place has a really nice vibe. Definitely worth a visit if you’re looking for a great meal.

Without a doubt, one of the most memorable dining experiences in London.

Great food fun vibe. When I booked for two they put us at the bar. We decided to leave instead, so they put us at a table. Glad we did. The food was fantastic and reasonably priced especially vs NYC. Highly recommend. I had the Herdwick Hoggett pasta. It was great. It’s a kind of lamb.

Highly recommended! We came in for lunch and were seated at the bar, right in front of the kitchen, which was a very unique experience, seeing how smoothly it runs with such amazing synergy. The food was 10/10 and our waitress Daniela was very pleasant, which added to our overall experience. We will definitely come back on our next visit to London.
