"You can now order wine from 40 Maltby Street’s wine shop and veg, eggs and dairy, and other pantry essentials from their food shop." - heidi lauth beasley, jake missing, rianne shlebak
"40 Maltby Street is a cute wine bar near London Bridge serving low-intervention wines from select makers around Europe, and you can get those wines delivered to your door from Gergovie Wines. For £9 (for up to 12 bottles), they’re aiming for overnight delivery to most addresses in the UK. Just make sure you get an order to them before dispatch days (Tuesday and Thursday). N.b. if you order 36 bottles or more - and we don’t think you should rule that out - delivery is free, so get ordering." - heidi lauth beasley, jake missing
"Open Wednesday to Saturday with a changing menu that jumps from terrine to fritters to rhubarb jelly with Jersey cream, 40 Maltby is an any-day, any-night, any-situation establishment. The Bermondsey wine bar and European-leaning small plates restaurant is a hidden-away, strictly no-reservations hot spot. Given their excellent wine list, spending any amount of time waiting at the bar is a blessing rather than a curse." - jake missing, heidi lauth beasley, rianne shlebak, sinead cranna, daisy meager
"With its no-bookings policy and location under a railway arch in Bermondsey, there’s no doubt that 40 Maltby could have aspirations to be the most annoying restaurant in London. Instead, it’s one of the most gentle and lovely. Catch-ups over terrine, fritters, and at least two custard or swiss roll-type desserts are regular." - jake missing, heidi lauth beasley, sinead cranna
"An old, dimly lit Bermondsey railway arch is the indie rom-com setting of dreams. And your meet cute moment at 40 Maltby Street looks something like you lazily eating plums and terrine alongside a low-intervention bottle, as the person opposite you falls hopelessly in love. It’s one of London’s most consistently lovely wine bars and European small plates restaurants, and securing one of their snug and intimate counter seats is exactly the kind of behaviour Richard Curtis would approve of.
