What is it?
Follow the scent of fresh pasta down Knightrider Street, and you’ll land at Mangio—a tiny slice of Italy just around the corner from Native Kings Wardrobe. This independent pasta bar is a haven for lovers of handmade ravioli, comforting sauces, and simple food done exceptionally well.
Every dish is made from scratch with care, combining seasonal ingredients and authentic Italian flavour. Whether you’re dining in, taking away, or stocking your apartment kitchen with deli delights, Mangio turns everyday meals into something worth lingering over.
Where is it?
Tucked between St Paul’s and Millennium Bridge, Mangio is just a 2-minute walk from Native Kings Wardrobe. Ideal for a quick lunch, an easy dinner, or a no-fuss night in with something warm, rich and Italian on your plate.
It’s the kind of place locals come back to again and again for the pasta, for the people, and for the no-frills charm.
What you’ll find
Mangio keeps things focused and flavour-packed. The menu stars fresh pasta, with daily ravioli options filled with the likes of spinach and ricotta, beef ragù, or porcini and truffle. Pair them with one of their house-made sauces for a plate that’s equal parts comforting and craveable.
There’s also a small deli counter packed with Italian cheeses, cured meats, and artisan sauces perfect for apartment dining or a makeshift picnic along the Thames.
The space is welcoming and unfussy, with the kind of low-key energy that makes solo lunchers, date-nighters and takeaway dashers all feel equally at home.
One-liner
Fresh-filled pasta, no-fuss vibes and real Italian flavour Mangio is your go-to for proper comfort food.
