  • Neighborhood gem
  • Charming
  • Good for special occasions
A Northcote Road favourite for over twenty years - that’s an awfully long time on the London restaurant scene - Antica Bologna is as fresh and thrilling as the day it first opened its doors, it conjures up images of hidden away village osterias in the wild countryside of Emilia Romagna or the rolling hills of Tuscany, its cheerful welcome befitting of an old family favourite. Chef Marzio Zacchi passionately believes in using fresh, locally sourced and seasonal produce having grown up in the Piemonte countryside surrounded by a family who reared chickens, grew veg and cured their own salami. However, despite his rustic upbringing, Zacchi has brought to Osteria Antica Bologna’s food the kind of sophistication that can only be gained through several years training in top London restaurants.

    Although I've lived in the area for many years and knew about this restaurant I had never been there. I was definitely missing out - welcoming service, delicious home-cooked food, great lunchtime deal, fantastic all round! Can't wait to go again.

    We loved it here! Nice atmosphere, great food, friendly service and good value. My partner had the wild boar raging which was absolutely delicious. I had the crab linguini which was fresh and summery. Checked all our boxes and we’d definitely go back.

    Busy, charming, long-established restaurant serving good quality food. Service a little haphazard - starter and mains arrived almost at the same time and one drink was forgotten.

    Such a great neighbourhood restaurant! My Linguine alle vongole was perfect. The front section can be a bit noisy (depending on other diners!) but it was nicely calm in the rear section.
