Live music and DJ nights in Mayfair: Friday, Saturday and Sunday at Bocconcino.
The music programme runs on the lower ground floor at 19 Berkeley Street, with DJs from 7pm on Fridays and Saturdays…
Three things run across the weekend. DJs play from 7pm on Friday and Saturday evenings. Amalfi Nights, with Francesca Monte singing live, runs on Friday evenings from 8pm. Live music plays through the Sunday buffet brunch. All of it sits on the lower ground floor, which is the music room of the two floors, and the programme runs alongside the regional Italian à la carte rather than replacing it.
Among the restaurants with live music in Mayfair, Bocconcino sits in the proper-restaurant bracket. There is no entry fee and no ticket: the booking is a table booking, guests order from the standard menu and the standard wine list, and the music is part of the room rather than a separate event. Guests under 18 are not admitted to the lower ground floor after 5pm.
The lower ground floor: the music room
The two floors at Bocconcino Mayfair do different jobs, and the music lives downstairs. The lighting is lower, the seating is set for longer dinners, and the acoustics suit a singer and a DJ set without turning the room into a club. Upstairs stays on white tablecloths and full table service through the same evening, so a table that wants a quiet dinner on a Friday still has somewhere to sit in the same building.
That split is the useful part when booking. Two groups arriving on the same night can have two different evenings, and the choice is made at the point of reservation rather than on arrival.
Amalfi Nights with Francesca Monte
Amalfi Nights is the Friday evening programme, with Francesca Monte singing live from 8pm. It runs over the DJ set rather than instead of it, so the evening builds: the DJ from 7pm sets the pace through the early tables, the live vocals come in at 8pm as the room fills. Guests booking for the singer are best arriving before 8pm to get the full set.
Dinner with live music in Mayfair: how the evening works
The volume is staged. Through the early sitting, the music carries the room while conversation at the table stays easy. From 8pm on Fridays and through the later tables on Saturdays the energy lifts, and by the end of service the floor reads closer to a party than to a dinner. Tables booked at 7pm and tables booked at 10pm are having two different evenings, which is worth knowing when choosing a slot.
The kitchen runs the full regional Italian menu through the music programme: hand-rolled pasta, Roman-style pizza from the open-fire oven, fresh fish and seafood. The cocktail list and the Italian-led wine list of over 300 bottles run as normal. Nothing is reduced for the music nights. It is the same kitchen that earned Bocconcino Mayfair Best Restaurant in London at the 2026 British Restaurant Awards.
Live music at Sunday brunch
Sunday is the third format. Live music plays through the Il Grande buffet brunch, set at lunch volume rather than evening volume, which suits a longer table and a slower afternoon. It is the version of the programme that works with families and with guests who want the atmosphere without the late energy.
Restaurants with live music in London: where Bocconcino fits
London splits this category into three. There are the music-first venues, where the food is secondary to the programme. There are the hotel bars, with a pianist or a background set and a limited menu. And there are the restaurants that add music at the weekend without changing the kitchen. Bocconcino Mayfair sits in the third group, with the difference that the programme is resident rather than occasional and the room downstairs was built for it. For guests searching for a restaurant with a DJ in Mayfair, or dinner with live music in central London, the Friday and Saturday evenings on Berkeley Street are among the established options in the area.
The sister restaurant in Soho runs its own weekend programme, with resident DJs and a live show on Friday and Saturday nights and later tables. The Soho music nights are the louder end of the group.
Booking a table on a music night
Tables can be booked online or by calling the restaurant. Friday and Saturday evenings are the busiest of the week and are best booked in advance, particularly for groups. When booking, it is worth saying which floor you want: the lower ground floor for the music, the upper floor for a quieter dinner. Birthdays and group celebrations are a regular feature of the weekend, and larger parties can be arranged with a tailored drinks package through the events team.
Frequently Asked Questions
DJs play on Friday and Saturday evenings from 7pm. Amalfi Nights, with Francesca Monte singing live, runs on Fridays from 8pm. Live music also plays through the Sunday buffet brunch. All of it takes place on the lower ground floor.
No. The music runs as part of the normal dinner service, so the booking is a restaurant booking rather than a ticketed event. Guests order from the standard à la carte, cocktail and wine lists. Minimum spend levels may apply to larger group bookings and private dining at peak times.
Guests under 18 are not admitted to the lower ground floor after 5pm. Families are welcome on the upper floor through the evening, and at the Sunday buffet brunch, where live music runs during the day and children are part of the service.
Not through the early sitting. From 7pm the set is at dinner volume and conversation at the table is comfortable. The energy lifts from 8pm on Fridays and through the later tables on Saturdays. For a quieter dinner on the same evening, book the upper floor, which stays on full table service without the music programme.
Amalfi Nights is the Friday evening programme with Francesca Monte singing live from 8pm, performing over the resident DJ set. The wider programme changes across the year, and the current line-up is listed on the What's On page.
