Forza Wine offers a breezy rooftop retreat with delicious small plates and stunning city views, perfect for sunny celebrations and casual gatherings.
"Forza Wine, an Italian place way up high on Rye Lane, leans more restaurant than bar. Once you see a couple happily sharing oil-drenched panzanella on a roof in the sun, you’ll understand why. Even the inside seats feel kind of outside here, which works well for inevitable summer showers." - heidi lauth beasley, jake missing, rianne shlebak
"Popular Peckham hangout Forza Wine are taking orders for Friday night dinners for two. The £45 menu ‘Forza Road’ concept includes three courses, with the main course requiring some cooking at home. Order here" - heidi lauth beasley, jake missing, rianne shlebak
"Forza Wine is a rooftop up on Rye Lane, and it leans more restaurant than bar. Once you see a couple happily sharing an oil-drenched panzanella in the sun, you’ll understand why. It’s all changing, seasonal, modern European sharing plates—think cauliflower fritti with aioli, mussels in a punchy ‘nduja sauce, grilled flatbread with stringy taleggio. And, as the name suggests, there’s a solid and natural-filled wine list, as well as one of London’s best Negronis for a tenner. You can sit inside or out, just be sure to specify when you book." - heidi lauth beasley, jake missing, rianne shlebak, sinead cranna, daisy meager, riaz phillips
"Forza Wine on Rye Lane leans more restaurant than bar. Once you see a couple happily sharing an oil-drenched panzanella in the sun, you’ll understand why. It’s all sharing plates: cauliflower fritti with aioli, a cheesestring-like fontina toastie with hot sauce. And, as the name suggests, there’s a solid and natural-filled wine list too. You can sit inside or out, just be sure to specify when you book." - jake missing, heidi lauth beasley, sinead cranna, daisy meager
"This Peckham wine bar makes you feel on top of the world, or at least, neck and neck with London’s finest pigeons. There are panoramic views from all angles of Forza Wine’s terrace, and is all about frozen Negronis and a natural-filled wine list. They also serve great little sharing plates—garlic and hazelnut pesto flatbread, pork fat mussels, cauliflower fritti—and custard and coffee caramel soft serve. Know that, while Forza’s sibling spot at the National Theatre doesn’t have rooftop views, its South Bank vista and alfresco terrace is still very pretty." - heidi lauth beasley, jake missing, rianne shlebak, sinead cranna, daisy meager
