Mercato Mayfair: The team behind Mercato Metropolitano hoping to open a new market

Foodie offering: The new market is set to open in Mayfair
Lizzie Thomson28 September 2018

Mayfair may be known for its high-end restaurants but a new community food market is hoping to open in the area early next year.

The team behind Elephant and Castle’s Mercato Metropolitano have plans to open a new site, Mercato Mayfair, in a former church just off Oxford Street — the Grade I listed St Mark's. An exact opening date hasn't yet been confirmed, though organised say it will be within the next six months, subject to planning and licensing approval.

The new market on North Audley Street will focus on food education, awareness and social responsibility. Spread across four floors, it will feature ‘cuisine counters’, a restaurant, a deli, cheese and wine stores, a coffee and gelato bar, patisserie, cocktail bar, a brewery and a flower shop, as well as a rooftop terrace with an outdoor bar area.

Much like Mercato Metropolitano, Mercato Mayfair is expected to host events, workshops and classes in the vaulted basement.

The Mayfair church recently underwent a £5m restoration. Once fully open, the new site will cover 16,000 square feet of retail dining and community space.
