Coco di Mama - Italian to Go - King William St

I tried the carbonara here. It was overpowered by a large quantity of mushrooms such that I couldn't taste anything else. I mentioned it to the guy at the counter that maybe a mistake had been made and he smugly responded "It's carbonara, I can see the pancetta". I've attached a photo - you can decide for yourself.

Stonking! Had pasta with green pesto & parmesan with chilli - so yum! Croissants as fresh at 4pm as if they had just been baked and just the right amount of butter! Now my eating ambition is to try one of everything they sell! Very nice and competent staff too!

The one in the picture is (supposed to be) a flat white... That says it all.
Taste of the coffee was ok but the texture of the milk and preparation completely wrong.. and I ended up with an overpriced cup of coffe and hot milk..
Sorry but I doubt I'll go again..

A little pricey; all of the sandwich chains seem to be pushing for £6/7 mains now, but I had a very decent chicken broth for under £4, cheesy garlic bread (also good) for £1.50 and a very decent if slightly small coffee. Very full on the dot at 12 noon with suits, and a bit irritating when people expect to hold meetings or use it as a business premises while you try relax. Staff turned up the music, which then just felt like a weird club. The hot food & coffee seems good though.

Girl with glasses that serves....so last that I checked it's not your concern how many coffees I need to buy, you should just ask "drink in or take out"... not "as well"? Not to mention that your customer service it's practical non existent.. and I would extend to "rude".... Darling I get you're tired, and with no mood whatsoever, but a smile on that bitter face could make your day as well...just because being nice to people makes your day nicer as well, people tend to understand you better when your not like a little sour lemon. Management, please offer some customer service training to your staff. Thank you for a horrible service, £20 worst spent...just flushed down the toilet(would've been more satisfying).

Great coffee so I also ordered some porridge, which was also great. Helpful friendly staff too.
Oh, I almost forgot, fantastic value considering its right in the financial area of London.
Very impressive 👍👏

First time I saw the menu I was afraid it would be a "fake" italian restaurant but I had to try to find out and... I was right... Pasta is overcooked, salsa is average and the recipes are not authentic at all. Good Italian food franchises exist outside of Italy (e.g. Francesca in France) but guys you need to be honest with yourself and improve things here. I didn't put less than 3 stars because I don't blame the staff but the food deserves less...

I love going to the Bank location, as it's close to where I teach classes at the gym nearby, so I usually go there inbetween sessions for a coffee and chill before moving on. Staff are nice and I always find a seat next to a charging point for my phone!
