Signature Carbonara

Updated 12 September 2026
Signature Carbonara is the lightest thing in Bella Italia’s Menu section at 1 kcal. Updated 12 September 2026.
Our most indulgent Carbonara yet – tagliatelle tossed in a velvety mascarpone sauce and topped with crispy slices of porchetta pork belly.
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 Carbonara
How to order Signature Carbonara at Bella Italia
Signature Carbonara is available at the till, on the kiosk screens and through the Bella Italia app, for collection or for delivery. Branch by branch availability varies, which the app reflects once you choose a location.
Bella Italia Signature Carbonara price in 2026
The Bella Italia Signature Carbonara price in 2026 is £19.79 on the figures we hold. The figure is Bella Italia’s own published price. Within the Menu section that puts it 85th of 88 on price. Expect more at airport, motorway and station branches than on a high street, and more again through a delivery app.
More protein for similar money
Chicken, Mushroom and Ham (Gluten-Free) costs about the same at £17.19 and carries 70.7g of protein against this item's 44.4g. If the point of the order is to be full for longer, that is the better buy of the two.
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.
Allergens declared
Bella Italia declares 3 of the 14 allergens UK law requires to be listed for this item: cereals containing gluten, eggs and milk. It also lists mustard and soya as a possible trace, meaning Bella Italia cannot rule those 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.
Protein for the calories
It gives 4440.0g of protein per 100 kcal, against a menu average of 224.0g across everything we hold for Bella Italia. That is a strong ratio for this menu, which matters more than the raw protein figure when you are comparing two items of different sizes. On raw protein it ranks 7th of 89 in its section.
Pro Tips for Ordering Signature Carbonara
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.
Salt worth knowing about
At 4.7g of salt it accounts for 78% 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.
What 1 kcal means here
1 kcal is well below the Menu average. On its own it is a small addition to a day rather than a meal. 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.
