Leadenhall Market to open three new F&B outlets

The City of London’s Leadenhall Market has announced that three new food and drink outlets are to be added to the market’s portfolio this month.

Visitors to the City’s Victorian market will soon be able to enjoy new dishes from Argentina, Lebanon and Taiwan. 

The first to open its doors is Argentinian Grill, serving up various cuts of flame cooked meats alongside popular South American sides including Provenzal fries, sweet potato and empanadas. 

From mid-June, Yi Fang will be joining the market with a bubble tea store serving flavours of early-Taiwanese hospitality. With its fruit-infused teas inspired by the owners’ grandmother’s secret recipe, Yi Fang’s crafts are made with a commitment to using only the freshest, highest-quality ingredients, giving customers the chance to customise their drinks with their desired sweetness and ice preferences. 

Also arriving at the market in mid-June is Lebanese Baba Ghanoush, offering its traditional Lebanese cuisine, with dishes including Kibbeh, stuffed vine leaves, chickpea salad bowls and falafel wraps.

Located in the centre of the City of London’s financial district, Leadenhall Market marked its 700th anniversary in 2021. Originally a meat, poultry and game market, it is now home to a collection of boutique retailers, restaurants, cafes, wine bars and an award-winning pub, The Lamb Tavern.  

Greg Stalcup, partner at Levy Real Estate who manages the lettings for Leadenhall Market, said: “We’re really looking forward to welcoming these exciting new eateries to one of London’s oldest market places. 

“Leadenhall Market continues to evolve, now not only being a place to eat, drink and shop but somewhere for people to enjoy a variety of exciting pop-up stores and events, bringing old and new faces to this beautiful destination in the heart of the City. These three new openings mark the start of a busy year ahead for the market, as we prepare to introduce more outlets later in the summer.”
