Website.

The pub is found in Elephant & Castle, Central London, SE1 6DR.

The Mercato Metropolitano development off Newington Causeway is a pretty remarkable place, full of interesting food and drink outlets. Tucked into one of its deepest corners is the Italian Job, a splinter from the original bar in Chiswick. Seating is shared with the other surrounding bars and food counters. There are twelve beer taps, six for Italian beers and six for others, usually including locally-brewed beers. No cask beers are stocked.

We have visited this pub twice, seen 6 different beers and tried them all.
