Opened in September 2023, this chic wine bar and restaurant at the National Theatre is a sister venue to Peckham's acclaimed rooftop wine bar Forza.
On the drinks menu is an expertly curated selection of interesting and accessible natural wines and a regularly changing seasonal house cocktail list featuring drinks like frozen peach margaritas and cherry negronis.
On the food side there’s a ‘sort of Italian’ inspired menu featuring small plates such as cauliflower fritti with aioli, mozzarella with figs and hazelnuts, pancetta potato cakes and pickled cabbage, and for dessert Forza’s signature Soft Serve.
The 160-cover indoor and outdoor space takes up the north-west terrace of South Bank’s famous Brutalist landmark overlooking the river and the Queen’s Walk. Inside the seating is split between banquettes and high-top tables with a great 24-seater long table for private dining tucked away in an intimate section of the balcony surrounded by greenery.
