"Bermondsey’s Cafe Murano nails the fine balance of being fancy but not uptight, and classy but not too polished. The Italian restaurant covers pretty much every type of situation. And when the sun is shining, the huge windows are pulled all the way, making the window stools the best seats in the house. Date night? Sit side by side as you fork at tender gnocchi. A low-key lunch? Work your way through a bowl of mussels as you people-watch. You: one; hay fever, nil." - rianne shlebak, jake missing, sinead cranna
