Have you met

Locanda Bagutta is a local Authentic Italian restaurant that you will fi nd halfway down George Street, in St Albans town centre. We have been open for just over 3 years now and recently celebrated our 3rd Birthday. Locanda Bagutta is named after the fi rst “Bagutta” restaurant owned by my family in Milan. We even have some of the orignal artwork from Milan displayed and love to tell customers about its origin and how it found its way to St Albans.

We serve authentic Italian food and have a vast varied menu full of Italian delights, old favourites and innovative dishes created by our excellent Italian chefs. People often ask about StA Pizza and whether is separate to Locanda as it its opposite us in the courtyard, but StA Pizza is part of the Bagutta family. Our Pizza Chef prepares pizza with the freshest ingredients and homemade dough for our eat in restaurant guests and for those that want takeaway or delivery.

We have just released our 2021 Winter menu - Truffl e features heavily on many of our homemade pasta and gnocchi dishes and we have some new “Stars of the show” Liguran style Sea Bass with sliced potato, pine nuts, taggiasche olives roasted cherry tomatoes and white wine, plus an amazing Lamb cutlet in almond croute, lemon and honey citronette served on a bed of rocket! We make some lovely cocktails and our desserts are homemade by our Chefs. The “Zuppa Inglese” (Italian dessert layering custard and spongecake) is proving to be very popular, along with the addition of a classic “Creme Brulè”, of course our customers say you can’t beat our “Tiramisù”, so if you haven’t tried it yet, what are you waiting for?

Our Wines are imported from Italy, along with some new Italian craft beers (you might have tried at the St Albans Gin and Jazz Festival) so if you are looking for something new instead of the usual Gavi or Pino Grigio, chat to us for a recommendation.

From 2nd -24th December we are serving a “Christmas Party Menu” with a welcome glass of Prosecco, so if you are looking to book a Christmas celebration, large or small, contact Antonio or Martina on 01727 854525 for more details or to book.

Follow us on Instagram locandabagutta or Facebook @locandabagutta.stalbans for the latest news, photos and highlights... 23A George St, St Albans. We look forward to welcoming you very soon!
