Our Food & Drink

Capilungo is the first of its kind in London bringing the Italian experience inspired by the cafés found along the winding streets of Puglia’s picturesque city, Lecce. Café by day and wine & cocktail bar by night, Capilungo focuses on quality ingredients and provenance, with a menu championing Lecce’s local delicacies, from freshly baked ‘pasticciotto’ and ‘rustico’, burrata salads, a selection of Pizzetta’s and cured meats, to Apulian wines, aperitivos, and cocktails.

Feast with us

Our all day dining offering evokes flavours of the southern Italian city of Lecce; with our iconic ‘pasticciotto’ and ‘rustico’ pastries, pizzettas and more.

For a sweet treat, don’t miss out on our ‘pasticiotto’, a shortcrust ‘pie’, filled with wonderfully indulgent cream. Try the classic custard cream or the Amarena cherry, or perhaps pistachio or chocolate. Best eaten at breakfast time with an espresso, we can’t wait for you to sample these southern Italian delights!

For savoury lovers, don’t miss our classic ‘rustico’; mozzarella and tomato delicately encased in puff pastry; and our seasonal pizzettas and salads which are perfect for a light bite.

Drink with us

Discover the perfect spot to catch up with friends, have a drink or two, on route to the theatre or post-work; drink with us at our hidden cocktail and wine bar!

Our wine list has been designed with a focus on offering a considered selection from small family-farm producers around the region of Puglia. You will discover unique varieties, from light and elegant, to full body and complex, from fresh and crisp to creamy and buttery.

Let us guide you on an Apulian wine experience, savour the great classics such as Primitivo di Manduria, or perhaps taste the lesser known Ottavianello in Ostuni, Super Apulian Cabernet Sauvignon or the top Negroamaro.

Our drinking den also champions the art of aperitivo; we have crafted a cocktail list that is reminiscent of the truly Italian Aperitif culture. Don’t miss tipples with a twist, or our classic and southern-inspired signatures.
