Market Place is set to unveil a five-storey food hall in London’s Leicester Square this December.
Situated next to the iconic Odeon cinema, the venue will host 16 independent kitchens and three standalone bars, making it the brand’s largest project to date.
The Leicester Square site will also feature a dedicated events space with a large screen and a curated cultural programme including comedy nights, live music performances, and DJ sets.
Those planning after-work drinks or exclusive gatherings will be able to reserve one of the venue’s private dining rooms.
Blake Henderson, managing director at Market Place Food Halls, said: “We started Market Place with one neighbourhood site in Peckham and in a few short years it has grown across the city. Leicester Square is the biggest leap forward yet. It is one of the most famous squares in the world and we are proud to bring our biggest Market Place yet right to the heart of the West End.
“This flagship is everything Market Place stands for. Incredible food, great drinks, live entertainment and a space where Londoners and visitors can celebrate together.”
News of the Leicester Square opening comes just four months after Market Place launched its St Paul’s food hall, which introduced London’s first outpost of the Australian-inspired sushi brand, Rolled.
Founded in 2020, Market Place has rapidly expanded its footprint across the capital, with venues now operating in Vauxhall, Harrow, Peckham, and St Paul’s.
