Updated 12 September 2026
Signature Bolognese sits 81st of 88 on price in Bella Italia’s Menu section, at £18.69 and 927 kcal. Updated 12 September 2026.
Tender pulled beef slow-cooked in a rich red wine, basil and rosemary Bolognese sauce, served over tagliatelle and finished with cheese and crispy prosciutto.
That price is Bella Italia’s own published figure, and it sits above the average for the Menu section. Branch pricing still moves it: an airport, motorway or station site charges more than a high street one for the same thing.

Everything You Need to Know About Bella Italia Signature Bolognese
How to order Signature Bolognese at Bella Italia
Counter, kiosk and app all carry it. The Bella Italia app adds collection and delivery. Not every branch stocks it, and the app is honest about that before you pay.
Bella Italia Signature Bolognese price in 2026
The Bella Italia Signature Bolognese price in 2026 is £18.69 on the figures we hold. The figure is Bella Italia’s own published price. Within the Menu section that puts it 81st of 88 on price. Expect more at airport, motorway and station branches than on a high street, and more again through a delivery app.
Salt worth knowing about
At 3.9g of salt it accounts for 65% of the 6g daily maximum the NHS recommends for adults, most of a day in one item. Salt in restaurant food is fixed in the recipe, so the only control you have is what else goes alongside it.
Finding it near you
We list 16 Bella Italia branches across 2 of the four UK nations, with the Liverpool postcode area holding the most at 2. Menus vary by site, so a listing here is national rather than a promise about your nearest one. The Bella Italia app confirms it in seconds.
Where it sits on price
80 items cost less than this one in the Menu section and 7 cost more, out of 88 we hold a price for. The closest thing to it on price is Gamberoni at £18.99, so those two are the real comparison when you are deciding.
What 927 kcal means here
927 kcal is well above the Menu average. That is most of a day's energy for a smaller adult in one item, so treat the rest of the order accordingly. The 2,000 kcal figure printed on UK menus is a reference intake for an average adult, not a target, and it is the number these percentages are worked against.
Pro Tips for Ordering Signature Bolognese
Portion and what comes with it
A pasta or noodle figure is for the bowl as served, and bread or a side salad ordered alongside is counted separately. That is usually where the real total on this kind of order comes from rather than the dish itself.
A lighter choice in the same section
Lentil Ragù sits in the same part of the menu at 819 kcal, which is 108 fewer than this for £15.49. That swap is the single biggest change available inside this section, and it needs no substitution or special request at the counter.
Allergens declared
Bella Italia declares 6 of the 14 allergens UK law requires to be listed for this item: celery, cereals containing gluten, eggs, milk, soya and sulphites (sulphur dioxide). It also lists mustard as a possible trace, meaning Bella Italia cannot rule that out. A declaration covers the recipe and not the kitchen, and every one of these chains prepares food in shared fryers and on shared surfaces. For a severe allergy the only reliable check is asking staff on the day.
