Badiani continues its expansion with a new shop in Balham, London

Badiani, the renowned gelato producer, is thrilled to announce its continued expansion in the UK with the opening of a new shop in Balham on Hildreth Street. Set to open its doors on 6th July, Badiani Balham will be the first to sell fresh, made-to-order pasta, alongside its usual offering of award-winning gelato, desserts and pastries.

This is the 11th shop in the UK and marks an exciting milestone in Badiani’s rapid expansion. The new South West London outpost will feature a vibrant, traffic light green exterior, and will include some indoor seating as well as plenty of space for al fresco dining.

For the first time ever, Badiani Balham will serve up a selection of classic Italian pasta dishes, made fresh to order. Options will include Cacio e Pepe, Bolognese, Carbonara, and truffle tagliatelle as well as Pomodoro and Basil gnocchi, pesto casarecce, and butter and sage ravioli. Takeaway and delivery will be available for locals.

“We are thrilled to bring the Badiani experience to Balham,” says Massimo Franchi, Badiani’s CEO. “This opening is a significant step in our expansion journey, and we are excited to introduce our award-winning gelato and now, our made-to-order fresh pasta, to the Balham community.”

Richard Thomas, Director of Agency at Shelley Sandzer, says: “Badiani has established itself as a London favourite when it comes to artisanal gelato, and there is no doubt it will thrive in the heart of Balham’s lively F&B hub. Mixed with families and young professionals, this is the perfect location for the brand as it continues to expand its South London presence.”
