Legare is an intimate Italian restaurant in the Cardamom Building at 31G Shad Thames, a short walk from Tower Bridge. The room has the focused feel of a neighbourhood dining spot, with an open kitchen and a concise menu that rewards sharing.
Seasonal antipasti lead into handmade pasta, combining an Italian culinary direction with carefully chosen British produce. The menu changes regularly, allowing vegetables, seafood and meat to appear when they are at their best rather than forcing a fixed list throughout the year.
A typical meal might begin with vegetable or meat based small plates before moving through several pasta shapes and sauces. A limited number of fish and meat secondi provide a further course, while the compact selection encourages diners to rely on the kitchen's judgement.
Organic and low intervention wines are chosen to sit naturally beside the food. Lunch and dinner service during the week, Sunday lunch and private dining options make Legare suited to a considered meal, a date or a small celebration near the river.
Address: Cardamom Building, 31G Shad Thames, London SE1 2YR, England
