Book NowAbout BAMBINI
Tucked away along Peel Street, this family-run kitchen serves scratch-made pasta and classic Italian mains with the warmth of dining at Nonna's house. Diners drop in for bowls of tender handmade gnocchi coated in fresh tomato sugo and crisp porchetta crackling alongside glasses of Italian wine. Warm focaccia kicks things off with a soft, salted crust, making room for late plates of duck risotto or a generous slab of light, liqueur-soaked tiramisu.
- Scratch-made pasta: Handmade ribbons and pillows tossed with fresh tomato sugo, rich cheese sauces, or seafood like cockles and squid ink tagliolini.
- Multi-generational hosting: Guests are welcomed like family by the owners and Nonna in an intimate, multi-generational Peel Street setting.
- Hearty traditional mains: Slow-roasted porchetta with crisp crackling and comforting duck risotto anchor the savory Italian main courses.

Before you head over
Helpful dining advice for your visit to Bambini on Peel Street
Walk In Early for Unreserved Tables
If you arrive without a reservation while walking along Peel Street, stop by early or during quieter dining windows when tables are more readily available before the dining room fills up.
Mention Dietary Requirements and Allergies
If members of your party have allergies or specific dietary needs, let the floor team know when ordering, as the kitchen comfortably accommodates different requirements.
Order Focaccia Early and Pace Your Courses
Pair rich scratch-made pastas and slow-roasted meats with warm focaccia or fresh bread to start, but pace your meal so you have room for substantial mains and desserts like tiramisu.
