Nestled near Borough Market, this lively bistro serves up exquisite housemade pasta and fine wines in a relaxed atmosphere, perfect for casual dining.
"You might associate Padella with a two hour wait and famously excellent handmade pasta, but it’s also one of the best places in London to get a big ball of the good stuff. Here they let the burrata do all the talking, because when it’s as creamy and delicious as this one is, it doesn’t need any other frills. Drizzled with a little bit of olive oil, this ridiculously light piece of cheese doesn’t need anything else. Apart from Padella's sourdough bread, of course." - rianne shlebak, heidi lauth beasley, jake missing
"A-list pasta bar Padella, usually has (virtual) queues round-the-block for a seat at its Borough and Shoreditch pasta bars. Now they’re trialling pasta kits that you simply finish up at home. So if you fancy beef shin ragu or tomato tagliarini and you live in Islington or Hackney then their delivery bicycle will come to deliver on Friday afternoons. Pre-orders open at 6pm on Wednesdays. Order fast here." - oliver feldman, heidi lauth beasley, jake missing, rianne shlebak
"We have a theory that heaven is just one big pasta bar. Sure, there’ll probably be some pretty clouds and that childhood dog that your parents told you ‘moved to a magical farmyard’, but mostly, we think there’ll be pasta. More specifically, pasta in the form of Padella’s handmade cacio e pepe. This legendary spot will not only be taking part in eat out to help out, but for the first time they have outdoor seating at both their Shoreditch restaurant and OG spot in Borough Market." - heidi lauth beasley
"Padella offers a carefully selected menu of seasonal pasta dishes, combining traditional Italian techniques with quality British produce without breaking the bank. The pasta is freshly made each day, passers-by can watch in the window as it is rolled out. (one tip: get there early because even in a food stuffed Borough, Padella is very popular!)" - NB Studio
"This perennially popular little sister to Trullo is set in bustling Borough Market; take your place in the virtual queue and wander round the stalls. Hand-rolled pasta is the star of the show and the accompanying sauces are full of flavour. Sit at the kitchen counter to watch the chefs at work." - Michelin Inspector
