Pentole & Padelle is a traditional Italian spaghetteria on Store Street in Bloomsbury, close to the British Museum. Its name means pots and pans, reflecting a style of service that brings freshly cooked pasta directly from the kitchen in practical sharing portions. The cosy dining room favours established regional recipes, allowing diners to travel through Italian flavours without unnecessary reinvention.

Meals can begin with focaccia dressed with olive oil and oregano, marinated olives, fried courgette or rice balls filled with mushroom, truffle and cheese. Tomato bruschetta brings garlic, basil and olive oil to grilled bread, while aubergine parmigiana layers tomato sauce with mozzarella and Parmesan. Caprese salad pairs buffalo mozzarella with tomatoes and basil for a fresh, direct alternative.

Fresh pasta provides the centre of the menu. Spaghetti carbonara combines egg yolk, pecorino, black pepper and crisp guanciale, while bucatini all’amatriciana uses tomato and cured pork. Fettuccine with mushrooms, penne alla Norma with aubergine and ricotta, linguine with prawns, and spaghetti with meatballs cover vegetable, seafood and meat preparations in a range of familiar sauces.

Pizza choices include Margherita, spicy salami, ham with artichoke and olives, roasted vegetables, and a folded calzone with ricotta. Tiramisu, panna cotta or small fried dough balls with chocolate provide a classic sweet ending. Italian wine by the glass, carafe or bottle completes a restaurant designed for simple lunches, relaxed dinners and larger tables sharing several pots of pasta.
