Paris’s much-loved Il Bambini Club has arrived in London, making its UK debut at The Hoxton, Shoreditch this September. Il Bambini Club is a playful new spot for all-day Italian dining with a dose of spirited dolce vita charm for the young at heart!

Located across the ground floor of The Hoxton, Il Bambini Club offers a vibrant escape complete with big tables designed for convivial dining, laughter and flowing wine. Welcoming guests into a buzzy, high-spirited setting, Il Bambini Club is the latest go-to for feel-good food, fun-loving company, and a touch of Italian charm in the heart of Shoreditch.

Much-loved Italian classics take centre stage throughout the menu as guests can enjoy Il Bambini Club’s signature crispy arancini, creamy burrata, fresh pastas before concluding with a giant tiramisu. Each dish has been carefully prepared to burst with flavour and colour; whether trying the ricotta, fresh pesto or truffle, each dish promises to transport guests to sunny Italy. The cocktail menu boasts Italian classics with a modern twist – think aperitivo hour, but East London-style – with Negronis, Amaretto Sours, Bellinis and Spritzes available. Offering a selection of Mediterranean flavours, each dish celebrates Italian hospitality culture where communities gather around the table with open arms, laughter in the air, and a true love for food.

The space has been designed in signature Il Bambini Club style. Interior and exterior designers Virginie Friedmann and Delphine Verace have curated the space to be chic, vibrant and comforting – but with a London twist. Celebrating Italian eccentricity, mid-century art and modern design flair, the space has weaved textured fabrics, green and terracotta furnishings and playful stripes to create a layered, evocative interior. Custom ceramic tableware and the restaurant’s signature fragrance, Il Bambini Club, with its sweet and tangy notes completes the sensory experience.

Whether popping in for a long, leisurely lunch, pre-dinner Negronis, or a late-night bite with friends, the experience is designed to be joyful and generous from morning to midnight. Mid-week live music will bring rhythm and soul to long dinners and late-night cocktails, providing an atmosphere that brings a slice of Italy to Shoreditch.

Born in Paris and loved in Megève, this Shoreditch outpost is Il Bambini Club’s first venture into the UK and it’s ready to make an impression with its signature mix of big flavours, warm service, and effortlessly cool vibes.

At Il Bambini Club the food is generous, the spirit is playful, cocktails flow freely and everyone leaves with a smile. Welcome to Bambini, where la dolce vita never ends.
