27 Old Compton Street

27 Old Compton Street is Soho's lovely little neighbourhood pasta spot where the portions are enormous, the pasta is fresh, and you leave happy, very full, and maybe a little bit tipsy. Plus, thanks to its late opening hours, you'll be able to satisfy your pasta cravings deep into the night.

Walking in feels a bit like stepping back in time, with its traditional wood-clad walls, vintage vermouth prints and brown leather banquettes. The menu is all about handmade pasta that won't break the bank, including all the traditional favourites and some more adventurous options. Inspired by Italy's tavola calda concept of a quick but good quality meal, they pride themselves on keeping things simple, fast and delicious. Expect dishes like aubergine parmigiana, squid ink ravioli, and homemade desserts.

The space is bright, modern, and buzzing with Soho's bright energy, and it's from the team behind local favourites 40 Dean Street and 64 Old Compton Street, so you know quality is guaranteed. As the latest open pasta bar in Soho – they're open til 1am on weekends – you can rely on them being there when you need them. It doesn't matter whether you're racing your way through lunch, catching up with old pals, or grabbing a late-night fix, there's always a plate of freshly-made pasta ready for you to devour.
