Alma's Restaurant is an Italian restaurant and pizzeria at 30 Borough High Street, a short walk from London Bridge and Borough Market. It offers a welcoming dining room for lunch and dinner, with an extensive menu grounded in familiar Italian flavours.
Pizza ranges from a simple vegan Marinara and classic Margherita to four cheese and vegetable calzone. Traditional tomato, mozzarella and fresh herb combinations sit beside richer toppings, giving diners a broad choice of both familiar and more substantial pies.
Homemade pasta includes a house spaghettini with king prawns, baby calamari, cherry tomatoes, rocket and fresh chilli. Other pasta, meat, fish and vegetarian dishes allow groups to build a varied meal, with balanced ingredients and straightforward presentation central to the restaurant's approach.
Italian white, red and sparkling wines are selected to accompany the food, while desserts and coffee complete a leisurely meal. Its central Southwark position and table booking make Alma's suitable for a pre-theatre dinner, an informal business lunch or a relaxed evening close to the river.
