Spianata

Great sandwiches (both meat and vegetarian ones), amazing salads (love the turkey one) and the staff are all so lovely to have a chat with! If you’re there on a day when Bombolonis are served, do yourself a favour and buy two. There is some inconsistency between the baristas but overall it’s my favourite place to go in the area. Local tip: when the offices are full this is a favourite place to eat, so certain popular sandwiches and salads do sell out - so try to get there before 1pm to have your choice of the whole delicious range.

I’m an Indian and I went here with my Italian colleague! The food is really good and the service is quick. As per my colleague this is nearest to the original Italian food. He is very satisfied and we visited the place twice in a week. It is located in a very beautiful place overseeing the tower bridge. Get a good warm spianata and eat it while walking along the river watching the beauty of the tower bridge! :)

Absolutely love the coffee here, especially the mocha and in the summer the affrogato is like a mini dessert. It's a strong coffee but the balance of the mocha is close to perfection for my taste. It's best to go in the late afternoon/evening if you can as it's less busy and you truly get the best customer service too. The food is good, desserts are wonderful, coffee is the best!

Lovely place. I normally go for the toasted focaccia. The bread is great, however for the very high price the fillings are not fulfilling this price! So it's only fair that if you pay £6 for a sandwich you should get a reasonable amount of filling. PLEASE DO IMPROVE THE FILLINGS QUANTITY as it should match the price.
