This iconic British-Italian caff is leaving its home of over 60 years
Alpino, the British-Italian London caff that has fuelled Chapel Market with plates of pasta, cups of tea, smoky kippers, and chicken escalopes since 1959, is leaving its premises and renaming.Isaac Rangaswami shared photos of two whiteboards in the windows of 97 Chapel Market declaring that Alpino closed down on 31 July, because in owner tk’s words, “the landlord has become greedy.”“We do not want to put our prices up for you to cover the extra cost.
Alpino is one of the best-value places to eat in central London, specialising in the daytime vernacular of British Italian cooking culture. Per Eater London contributor Jonathan Nunn, that involves"taking a mound of perfectly cooked, saucy spaghetti puttanesca that any Italian would be happy with and then adding three liberal dustings of parmesan, a whole chicken escalope and a cup of tea into the mix."Sign up for the newsletterCheck your inbox for a welcome email.
