Locanda de Gusti
This bustling bistro, loud with the buzz of conversation and the clink of glasses and cutlery, is no ordinary Italian, but a little corner of cosmopolitan Naples complete with hearty Neapolitan home cooking by friendly head chef Rosario. The food ranges from light and tasty pasta fresca (ravioli tossed with butter and sage) to delicious platters of grilled langoustine, sea bream and sea bass.

Gordon’s Trattoria
The delicious aroma of garlic bread wafting into the street will guide you into this snug haven of wisecracking waiters and hearty Italian comfort food. In summer you can chomp on pizza and slurp wine while comfortably seated at a pavement table, and late-night hours means that Gordon’s often develops a bit of a party atmosphere after midnight on Friday and Saturday.

Valvona & Crolla VinCaffè
Foodie colours dominate the decor at this delightful Italian bistro – bottle-green pillars and banquettes, chocolate-and-cream coloured walls, espresso-black tables – a perfect backdrop for VinCaffè's superb antipasto (£15 for two), washed down with a bottle of pink Pinot Grigio.
