London's take on a Venetian bacàri (small bar), Polpo dishes out sharing plates of pasta, meat and pizzette (petite pizzas), with excellent options for vegetarians. The succulent meatballs keep Londoners coming back; despite the name, the octopus is best avoided. Portions are larger than cicchetti (bar snacks) found in Venice but smaller than a regular main, the perfect excuse to graze freely.
Polpo's tentacles extend across London, with four additional branches dotted around the city.
