Capilungo
Experience a true taste of Puglia in the heart of Covent Garden at Capilungo
(est. 1991)
An authentic, family-run Italian café and restaurant. We are a local favourite for brunch and lunch, specialising in brunch classics, freshly baked pastries, and the traditional Pasticciotto Leccese.
Join us during the day for the perfect coffee and a relaxed bite. In the evening, Capilungo transforms into a vibrant wine bar and restaurant, serving an all-day menu of Italian small plates, burrata, and cured meats.
A taste of Lecce
Escape to the warm streets of Puglia, in our terracotta-hued and light-filled Italian ‘home away from home’.
Situated in the heart of Covent Garden, our all-day dining offering evokes flavours of the southern Italian city of Lecce; with our iconic ‘pasticciotto’ and ‘rustico’ pastries, pizzettas and more.
An Italian Aperitivo, or two
Pop in for an aperitivo at our hidden wine & cocktail bar, the perfect pitstop on your way to the theatre.
Our wines and spirits selection take from wonderful and esteemed producers in Puglia. Discover our unique varieties of wine from some incredible Apulian vineyards or perhaps sample a truly Italian aperitivo, with one of our southern-inspired signatures.
Saluti!
