Best Restaurants in London Bridge

Anywhere with Borough Market at its centre is going to have a stellar food scene. From tucked away Bermondsey Street eateries to fine dining at The Shard, here are the best places to eat in and near London Bridge.

Padella

Padella London Bridge

No Italian restaurant list would be complete without the legendary Padella, known for its standout homemade pasta dishes, tiny prices and gigantic queues. The menu features a handful of simple antipasti and ten pasta dishes, with everything from the simple-but-perfect tagliarini with slow-cooked tomato sauce to a more experimental chicken liver, sage and marsala pappardelle dish. The ingredients, flavours and flair are undoubtedly Italian, but with a smattering of the best of British (it is around the corner from Borough Market, after all) – Cobble Lane Cured ‘nduja and salami are made in London, and ravioli are stuffed with Neal’s Yard ricotta. But the big question is this: is it really worth the three-hour wait? The answer is a resounding yes. Since opening, Padella has never been queue-less, and the wait only adds to the excitement and anticipation of it all. It’s become a ritual, even. Arrive early, leave your phone number and go exploring for a couple of hours – it’s the perfect excuse for a leisurely stroll around the area (local pub crawl, anyone?) before sitting down to a well-deserved plate or three of steaming hot, delicious pasta. Perfetto! padella.co

Native

Native

Horst Friedrichs

Taking farm-to-table dining to new heights is celebrated wild food restaurant Native. The charming eatery used to sit within Neal’s Yard, but a sudden notice from the council meant they had to make a quick move to Southwark Street. This turned out to be no bad thing though – the new site is larger, with tables deliberately spaced out to allow a more private and comfortable experience. Native was initially concocted as a street food stall by Ivan Tisdall-Downes and Imogen Davis – long before sustainability became cool. Both have always been passionate about the natural world: Ivan worked at River Cottage HQ as well as the renowned Blue Hill Farm in New York, while Imogen nurtured a palate for wild food from a young age (her family own a falconry business). Through all its iterations the focus has remained the same: foraged food. The menu is strictly seasonal, dictated each day according to the day’s deliveries. Expect innovative, modern dishes from the land, sky and sea, presented beautifully. nativerestaurant.co.uk

Restaurant Story

Tom Sellers tells his life story through a unique selection of tasting menus at this renowned Tooley Street spot. He opened Restaurant Story aged just 26 back in 2013 following stints at Noma and Thomas Keller’s Per Se in New York. In 2018 the restaurant started a new chapter after a refurbishment, taking on a more grown-up feel while upholding the playful element Sellers is known for. There’s no menu as such: diners are asked for likes and dislikes before a tailored selection of dishes arrive theatrically at the table. Some classics feature time and time again though: the ‘Storeos’, for instance, a savoury spin on an Oreo cookie filled with cheese instead of cream; and the beef dripping candle, a candle made from beef fat melting into a dipping sauce for sourdough – Instagram gold. restaurantstory.co.uk

Hutong at The Shard

Hutong Shard By Night

Undoubtedly one of the most special spots to dine in the city is Hutong on the 33rd floor of the Shard. With dark red, moody interiors, sparkling lanterns and a traditional Chinese wishing tree where guests hang their wishes on branches, Hutong oozes the romance of fairy tales and is an absolute delight. This is our top pick for a splash-out supper, with its vast selection of fine Northern Chinese cuisine and creative cocktails set against the backdrop of the sprawling London skyline which twinkles at night. Allow longstanding waiters to guide you through the menu, but don’t miss the pink champagne prawn dumplings and Peking duck which is carefully sliced instead of shredded. Book far in advance to secure the best tables in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows and soak it all in – you’ll struggle to go back down to earth. hutong.co.uk

Roast

This restaurant overlooking Borough Market is named after what it does best: a good old-fashioned roast with top-notch ingredients. This is the place to go if you don’t want to wait until Sunday – they have different roast meat and fish specials every day to keep things interesting. But the Sunday menu still reigns, with three courses for £39.50 per person including some of the best beef and Yorkshire puddings we’ve had. roast-restaurant.com

Best Roasts in London

‘O Ver

‘O Ver

One of London’s most authentically Neapolitan restaurants, ‘O Ver has converted many a discerning diner to its unique pizza making method – using pure sea water from the Med to make the base lighter and more easily digestible. Go for the classic Regina (Neapolitan buffalo mozzarella and cherry toms) to appreciate the method in all its glory, or load it up with fragrant Tuscan sausage, Roman artichokes and wild broccoli from Vesuvius. All ingredients are impeccably sourced from small Italian producers, and you can really taste the difference. Plus, no more post-pizza puffiness means extra room for all the glorious trimmings: a burrata stuffed with truffle that verges on life-changing, handmade pappardelle with a family recipe of porcini, sausage and shallots, and an exceptional cassata dessert that’s not to be missed. overuk.com

Café Murano

Café Murano is the fun younger sibling of Angela Harnett’s Michelin-starred Italian restaurant Murano: more relaxed, less pricey, and equally delicious. Adam Jay (who previously headed up the St James’ site) oversees the kitchen, which serves some of Angela’s signature dishes (Chicken Milanese, Osso Bucco Risotto) alongside a selection of newbies. The menu follows the classic Italian format of sampling starters, pasta, mains and dessert, so you can – and should – go all out. cafemurano.co.uk
