Bella Italia
About
Bella Italia Taplow is a bustling, family‑friendly Italian restaurant located in the heart of the Bishop Centre, just a short walk from Taplow Riverside and Cliveden House. The menu thrives on classic pasta dishes—think creamy carbonara, hearty bolognese, and baked lasagne—paired with a selection of hand‑stretched pizzas and a range of fresh salads and starters. The restaurant prides itself on generous portions, affordable prices, and a welcoming atmosphere that caters to diners of all ages. One of the standout features of Bella Italia is its family‑inclusive approach. Kids eat free all day Sunday through Thursday with the purchase of an adult main, and a dedicated kids meal menu—available in smaller and larger portions—ensures that even the youngest diners get a full, delicious experience. The venue also offers live music nights, a comfortable bar, and convenient walk‑in service for those who prefer to reserve no longer than the modest “decent time” recommended by the staff. With open hours from 11:30 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. on weekdays and 11:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. on weekends, Bella Italia is ideal for a relaxed lunch, a cozy dinner, or a quick bite before or after visiting nearby attractions.
