Our Community
We are committed to sourcing ingredients from nearby independent Soho businesses. Our bread comes fresh from Camisa, a beloved local bakery renowned for its artisanal creations, which originally opened on Old Compton Street in 1929, while our coffee beans are sourced from the historic Algerian Coffee Stores, a cornerstone of Soho's coffee scene since 1887. As proud members of the Soho Business Alliance we embrace the essence of community, recognising the importance of giving back, supporting causes close to our hearts that enrich the lives of those in our community.
“At 64 Old Compton Street, we strive to provide top-notch service from the moment you walk through our doors.”
We are a team of dedicated food enthusiasts, committed to creating memorable dining experiences for our guests. Our chefs meticulously craft each dish, from traditional classics to contemporary delights, and we are renowned for our pasta dishes with all pasta home made in our kitchen on a daily basis. We take pride in delivering exceptional service with a personal touch and our friendly team will ensure every visit is enjoyable.
Our older sibling restaurant, 40 Dean Street, is moments away in the heart of Soho. It’s been going strong for over 2 decades, which has put it firmy on the map for tourists and locals alike. It promises the same divine Italian dishes made using the finest ingredients we could lay our hands on. Customers return for the gnocchi and the hand crafted pasta but there’s lots of choice. There are a few alfresco tables which become some of the most sought after seats in Soho when the sun comes out. The perfect spot for a business lunch, sexy date or meet up with your bestie. And the killer cocktail list, that’s just the icing on the cake!
