E Pellicci Bethnal Green - the honest truth about the food menu. E Pellicci serve up amazing , off the charts breakfast fry ups - however, being an Italian family owned business we forget the Italian food they do. So this is the honest truth about Italian food cooked and served by Italians. #epellicci #pellicci #breakfast #italianfood

Pellicci.. My favourite confort food and breakfast place whenever i'm in London. My first time at Pellicci was in 1968, a 17 year old in london waiting to join my second ship (Merchant Navy) and loved it ever since.. Good old Nevio still the same greeting patrons with his very own smile and carachter.. The Cannelloni.. Reminds me of Mamma maria Bless her soul.. Thks for bringing me memories Darren as i haven' t been to london for some time now

Loved this video mate and your food looked out of this world. Its interesting you came here as i follow a couple pf other food reviewers as well as yourself. One of them being a fellow Londoner like you called Gary Eats. Not sure if you've heard of him or not but he goes to this Pellici's and it's actually his favourite cafe/restaurant out of all that he's been too. He loves their Spaghetti Bolognese and has said exactly the same as you about the quality of food and how welcoming and friendly the staff are here. Like you he's very honest so it just goes to show what an amazing place Pellici's is. Be great if the 2 of of you did a video together buddy as you both love top quality food no matter what the price is and are very similar minded. Thanks again mate and looking forward to catching up with more vlogs over next couple of days👍

I was back in London last month and really wanted to have the Lasagne, but a mix up with the City boat tour meant I missed the closing time (on the boat for 90 minutes instead of 30!) - Next time!
