Here at MBARE we are passionate about food and know the importance of fresh quality ingredients. We blend the tradition of Italian cuisine and aperitivi culture together in a seamless way to create a new restaurant bar on Clapham High Street. Join us for breakfast, lunch and dinner or pop in for one of our speciality cocktails or a glass from our wine list.

“ThroughMBARE we have created our own versions of home, embodying our family values of hard work, respect and passion, with a touch of Italian flair!”

Join us in the morning for a delicious selection of European and traditional breakfasts, a crowd pleaser of an all-day brunch option, or peruse the lunch menu specially created by our executive chef. Stay a little later for dinner, and taste some of our original dishes with influences taken from the north and south of Italy. Select a drink from our curated wine list or enjoy a modern twist on the Italian aperitivo cocktail, artfully prepared by the mixologist.

We were able to make a booking for a dinner here but upon arrival we learned that the restaurant is no longer in business. We were disappointed that OpenTable allowed a reservation to be made even though the restaurant is no longer in operation.

Unfortunately due to it being super busy, we couldn't have our main before having to leave due to the ten pm curfew. But the staff were super nice, apologetic and even gave us a free round of drinks for when they next open back up again. The food we did have was super tasty. Really good. Definitely would want to come back and try the full experience.

Gorgeous food and wine, amazing atmosphere and brilliant staff! Lots of groups of friends and date-nights, quite loud as everyone was chatting away, but in a really good, comfortable way. Also fab cocktails!

It´s really hard to differentiate oneself as an Italian restaurant in London. At the same time it is really hard as a diner to find a place to eat that simple but perfectly balanced food that Italy is famous for. Mbare does that.
