Union Street Café was a restaurant, owned by chef Gordon Ramsay, in Southwark, London. It was the first of Ramsay's restaurants to be opened without the involvement of Chris Hutchinson, and at one point was backed by footballer David Beckham. The Café served Mediterranean cuisine, with mostly Italian dishes. The head chef, Davide Degiovanni, designed the menu, which was changed daily. Before the Café was opened, it received more than 10,000 booking requests, with seating filled to the end of the year. Food critics' reviews have been mixed, with differing opinions of the veal saltimbocca but agreement in dislike of a dish of octopus, borlotti bean, and 'nduja sausage. Union Street Café was replaced by Gordon Ramsay Restaurants in December 2020 with their third Street Pizza Location, joined at that address in May 2021 by their second Bread Street Kitchen & Bar location for London.
