Given London's' deep and abiding love for fresh pasta, it's not surprising that there are now a wide range of places delivering. So if you fancy some farfalle or want to send a pasta parcel to a friend or relative, there are plenty of pastafici ready to take your order.
Cafe Murano
The Bermondsey outpost of Angela Hartnet's Italian cafes also has a delivery business. All the fresh pasta that you can get at the cafe is available, from orecchiette to tortelli with Westcombe ricotta & lemon. Plenty of sauces are available alongside sauces like the amazing spicy fennel & sausage sauce (as well as more meals).
Delivery range: Within 8 miles of the restaurant or you can order to collect.
