Goodge Street

Dear valued guests, after 70 unforgettable years of service, we’ve closed the doors of Spaghetti House Goodge street, the very place where it all began. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for these years. Thank you for bringing laughter, joy, memories and most importantly, life, to this beloved restaurant. It’s been a pleasure to open our doors to you every day and to be a part of your lives.

In 1955, our grandfather Simone Lavarini opened this restaurant with a simple dream: to welcome people in, feed them well, and make them feel at home. Goodge Street wasn’t just a restaurant, it’s been the heartbeat of our family’s legacy. A place where generations gathered, stories were shared, and lifelong memories were made. From first dates to family gatehrings, you brought this space to life.

Though Goodge Street has closed, we proudly run five more Spaghetti Houses and remain the oldest family run Italian in London.

From our family to yours, grazie.

Over the past few years and months, we’ve heard wonderful, heartwarming stories from you all, if you have one to share please do, we’d love to read your memories! You can contact us at info@spaghettihouse.co.uk

Our Favourite Dishes & Drinks


Why not try some of our personal favourites from the menu?

Diavola Pizza

A freshly baked pepperoni and red pepper pizza with herbs on top sits enticingly in an open brown cardboard box on a marble surface, straight from the ovens of an Italian restaurant near Goodge Street.

Negroni

A glass filled with a red cocktail sits on a countertop at an Italian restaurant in Westfield White City. The drink, complete with ice cubes and garnished with orange slices, is inviting, while the background remains softly blurred.

Penne Arrabbiata

At an Italian restaurant near Goodge Street, a plate of penne pasta topped with tomato sauce and herbs sits on a marble table. Accompanied by a fork, a can of Sanpellegrino Limonata, and a glass of lemon beverage with ice and a lemon slice, it's the perfect stop after exploring Tottenham Court Road.
