Bancone Covent Garden is the original restaurant from a London pasta group that began on William IV Street in 2018. The dining room is buzzy and informal, while the kitchen takes inspiration from Italy, London and wider Europe to create fresh pasta by hand every day.

Antipasti introduce the menu through olives, freshly baked bread, fried snacks, seasonal vegetables, cured meats and cheese. The signature silk handkerchief pasta with walnut butter and confit egg yolk reflects Bancone’s approach, pairing precise pasta making with rich but carefully balanced sauces.

Other pasta dishes move between classic Italian ideas and more contemporary combinations. Spaghetti, tagliatelle, gnocchi, filled pasta and regional shapes may be paired with tomato, cheese, seafood, slow cooked meat, herbs or vegetables as the menu changes through the seasons.

Desserts continue the Italian influence through choices such as cannoli, while a focused wine list is joined by cocktails and signature Negronis. A private dining room gives the Covent Garden location space for group occasions as well as everyday lunch and dinner.

Address: 39 William IV Street, Covent Garden, London WC2N 4DD, United Kingdom
