About

Vinoteca City is a buzzing wine bar and restaurant in Bloomberg Arcade, serving modern European dishes alongside an exceptional wine list curated from small independent producers.

Located in Bloomberg Arcade, Vinoteca City sits in the heart of London’s financial district, just moments from Bank and Cannon Street stations. The area is known for its striking Norman Foster architecture, lively atmosphere, and proximity to landmarks such as St. Stephen Walbrook and the Royal Exchange. Vinoteca City makes the most of this setting, offering a spacious, contemporary venue that combines a wine shop, bar, and restaurant under one roof.

The menu is firmly rooted in seasonal modern European cuisine, designed to pair perfectly with the extensive wine list. Guests can expect small plates such as Nocellara olives, Valencia almonds, and mature cheddar croquettes, alongside starters like forest mushroom soup with truffle crumb or heritage beetroot with chicory and hazelnuts. Larger dishes include wild boar and venison meatballs, grilled chorizo with crème fraîche, and burrata with roasted plums and spiced pistachios. Sharing boards of cured meats and artisan cheeses add to the convivial feel.

Wine is at the heart of the experience, with a rotating selection by the glass and bottle, showcasing both familiar favourites and unexpected finds. The team prides itself on sourcing from small producers, ensuring every pour tells a story. Craft beers and cocktails are also available, making Vinoteca City as versatile for casual drinks as it is for full dining.

With its mix of modern European plates, curated wine list, and prime City location, Vinoteca City has become a go-to destination for professionals, wine lovers, and visitors seeking a lively yet relaxed dining experience in London.

Awesome food - seasonal, and using local farms and vegetables which I love - and a huge wine list with really cool wines from all over the world.

Slow, slow, quick, quick....
Bright and shiny as befits a new eaterie in the gleaming Bloomberg Arcade, Vinoteca City was extraordinarily busy for a Tuesday evening in mid-February. Three of us took up the current offer of a wine flight with a main course, but for the first 15-20 minutes of arrival, we really thought we had come to the wrong place, such was the lack of staff attention. Finally we managed to gain the eye of one clearly very busy server and eventually three tasting glasses of wine were set before us. It took a bit more time before our food order was taken, and then again for it to arrive, but as the room began to empty a little, the attention of the staff improved. Hopefully, this will be ironed out over the coming weeks, as speed of service aside, it was a great place to eat, drink and chat. Food-wise we shared three dishes from the bar snacks menu, two of which, the salty Padron peppers and the Tamworth pork crackling were very moreish. The third, scamorza on polenta would have benefited from more scamorza and less polenta. Between us we sampled three of the eight mains on offer and all were decent quality with fair size portions. The only quibble I have is that as there was no mention of any side dishes to accompany the mains, we ordered a portion of mashed potato, only to find that each dish was then served with mash. But overall this pointed to our overall view that with a few additional staff and/or better training for those in situ, this really will be a welcome addition to the City after work eating scene.

I booked this restaurant for my boss who had a breakfast meeting. He thought the food and ambience were excellent and was extremely happy going there.
