Mele e Pere

Mele e Pere is a Soho restaurant serving Italian cooking with a modern twist. The kitchen works around seasonal ingredients, and the homemade pastas change with the seasons. The room is cosy and easygoing, which makes it a good fit for a pre-theatre dinner or a casual night out with friends.

The other draw is the vermouth bar. Guests can work through a range of homemade vermouths, each with its own flavour, which is a rare thing to find in London. Add the seasonal Italian food, the pastas and pizzas, and you have a place that rewards a return visit.
