What a wonderful way to start an evening at the Barbican Centre. Excellent quality food, expertly served by friendly, efficient and welcoming staff. An experience I hope to enjoy again in the not too distant future.
Lovely dinner and drinks before the show with great views. Very attentive and helpful staff.
Pre show dinner great relaxed atmosphere great food and excellent service from the team
A very enjoyable meal! I was impressed that they offered a vegan french onion soup option, it’s not something you see often! My gnocchi was absolutely delicious as well and staff were super friendly and attentive. Great place for dinner before a show :)
What a nice surprise! We had tickets to a performance at the Barbican but hadn't booked a place to eat. We decided to check out all of the dining establishments in the Barbican and were so glad we found the Brasserie. Other restaurants that have a fairly captive audience might overcharge or serve me
I would add that I attended as a birthday gift for their cocktails and sharing platter and although they knew it was my birthday, unlike other establishments , the table wasn't decorated nor was any slice of cake or decorated plate brought out. It still had an element of "corporate", rather than "oc
Tasty mains, wonderful drinks, and attentive service overlooking the historic Barbican lakeside terrace. Perfect for a pre-theatre dinner!
Excellent food and service. Recommended if you are attending an event in the Barbican. Very reasonable price 2 or 3 courses for London.
Osteria is a restaurant located on the second level of the Barbican. The restaurant serves predominantly Italian cuisine and wine. I can honestly say that the place far exceeded my expectations. We ordered the salmon, peas and mint risotto, two side salads, and a lavender cocktail and moscato Rosa.
Been visiting Barbican centre over many years but never really sat down for a proper meal.
The restaurant had a nice vibe, staff seemed great and knows their wines. With it being evening, the church looked picturesque across the way.
I think for London city, the set menu prices were reasonable.

Lovely value for the price, felt like we enjoyed a really nice meal and drinks that another establishment would have overcharged us for and been pretentious about. So easy and wonderful to not worry about rushing through dinner and managing transport to get to the symphony! Simply walk downstairs. O
I had an amazing experience. The food was delicious and the view was outstanding. Friendly waiter and great atmosphere. A bit pricey, but the food was so good that it was worth it.
Great little Bistro in the Barbican. Posh Italian nosh with very well prepared ingredients. Excellent experience. Really enjoyed it.
We had a fantastic lunch before a matinee performance. Staff were so cheerful and attentive, food was delicious and we couldn’t be in a better mood before our show. Thanks so much!
A pleasant oasis of calm within the Barbican arts complex offering those attending plays and concerts somewhere to have lunch, dinner or just a drink.
The food is quite good, though it is the location rather than the food that puts bums on seats here. Portions are a little small, but adequate.
