New neighbourhood Italian coming to St John's Wood

A new neighbourhood Italian restaurant concept will open in St John's Wood in December, offering an authentic dining experience for breakfast, brunch, lunch and dinner. 

Babbo will be split between a main restaurant space, an intimate lounge and a bar area, seating up to 84 people. A fully heated outdoor terrace seating up to 24 will also launch. 

Babbo's menu, curated by executive chef Nicola Cariglia, will highlight the rich and diverse flavours of Italy. Guests can look forward to signature dishes such as Babbo Parmagiana, Angel Hari White Ragout, Lardo di Colonnata, Grilled Baby Chicken and Spaghetoni Gragnano with Chilli Mussels and Baby Squid. The main bar and lounge area will boast a selection of fine wines and hand-crafted cocktails, including Pompello Spritz, Verdita Margarita and Sage Cherry Negroni. 

"We are thrilled to introduce Babbo to the vibrant community of St John's Wood," says Cariglia. "Our vision is to create a space where guests can gather to enjoy delicious food, great wine and the company of friends and family. We believe in the power of good food to bring people together and look forward to welcoming our neighbours to Babbo."
