About Bootleg Social Lounge

Bootleg Social Lounge dishes out rich Italian comfort food on Oxford Street—entirely plant-based and made from scratch. Settle into the moody dining room while the kitchen churns out garlic dough balls, crunchy truffle arancini, and al dente rigatoni coated in spicy vodka sugo. Locals point out that the house-made, nut-free cheeses fool even stubborn carnivores, while weekends draw spirited crowds for bottomless brunches fueled by Tommy margaritas and Aperol spritzes. The night winds down effortlessly over house-infused liqueurs and generous slabs of creamy vegan tiramisu.

  • All-Plant-Based Italian Menu: Classic dishes, scratch-made pastas, and nut-free cheeses crafted completely free of animal products.
  • Cocktail-Fueled Bottomless Brunches: Weekend brunches feature generous sharing plates paired with flowing cocktails like Tommy margaritas.
  • Handcrafted Pasta & Antipasti: Silky pasta options, from fiery vodka rigatoni to peppery cacio e pepe, cooked strictly al dente.
