It may seem that Terence Conran has dominated this part of London with the Butlers Wharf Chop House and the Blueprint Café but with spectacular views of the London skyline why not?

The Cantina del Ponte Restaurant offers gutsy Italian dishes where you can enjoy al fresco dining (weather permitting).

As with a typical Italian restaurant that you’d find anywhere in Italy, the interior of Cantina del Ponte Restaurant is earthy and friendly with a busy mural of an Italian market scene and the standard terracotta tiling throughout.

The food at Cantina del Ponte is certainly of a very high standard. Apart from a huge range of traditional Italian dishes and breads,  I would recommend you try one of their famous pizzas cooked in a traditional wood-fired oven.

The wine list features mostly Italian wines, as you would expect .The atmosphere at the Cantina del Ponte is very friendly and welcoming. A must for all visitors to London.
