Bottles, the celebrated Italian restaurant and wine bar in the heart of Old Spitalfields Market, announces its next chapter as part of the BeBeMe family. Bottles retains its cherished identity, welcoming atmosphere, and regional Italian cuisine, now enhanced by BeBeMe’s portfolio of wines from sustainable, organically practising family wineries.
This is not a relaunch, but an enhancement: Bottles remains a local favourite for Italian food lovers—now with an enriched wine list curated by BeBeMe Wine Merchants, featuring small producers and exclusive selections from Italy and beyond.
Led by Italian Chef Claudio Geraci and General Manager Stefano Tatti, Bottles delivers true Italian flair, flavour and warmth. From the kitchen to the aperitivo board, every moment reflects the team’s commitment to authenticity and hospitality—the Italian way. Signature dishes include Beef Lasagna Bolognese, Rib-eye Steak with Gorgonzola Butter and Porcini Mushrooms, Rigatoni Carbonara, and generous cured-meats and cheese sharing boards—perfect for pairing with a glass of wine.
Julio Bruno, Founder & CEO of BeBeMe, said: “Bottles has long been known for its authentic Italian spirit. By adding BeBeMe’s expertly sourced wines, we’re enhancing what is already a great dining experience. We’re not changing Bottles—we’re elevating it.” Bruno, who also serves as Executive Chairman of Lío Group and is the former CEO of Time Out Group, added: “We want Bottles to be the benchmark for genuine Italian food and wine culture in London—accessible, elegant and joyful.”
