Il Bordello is a longstanding Italian restaurant on Wapping High Street that has served the neighbourhood since 1996. Its lively dining room, generous portions and familiar hospitality have made it a popular choice for local residents, families, couples and groups looking for a relaxed meal near the Thames.

Pizza is one of the restaurant’s central attractions, with a broad selection of toppings served on freshly prepared bases. Classic combinations sit alongside richer choices featuring cured meat, vegetables, cheese and seafood, giving diners options that range from simple favourites to more substantial creations.

Pasta, fish, seafood, meat dishes and salads extend the menu well beyond pizza. Fresh ingredients and traditional Italian flavours guide the cooking, while the wide choice makes it easy for a table to share starters before choosing individual main courses suited to different appetites.

Italian wine, beer, spirits, coffee and desserts complete the meal, whether guests are visiting for a quick supper or a longer celebration. The warm neighbourhood atmosphere and extensive menu give Il Bordello the easygoing character of an established local restaurant that welcomes both regulars and first time visitors.

Address: 81 Wapping High Street, Wapping, London E1W 2YN, United Kingdom
