Seven Dials Market

Top choice in The West End


In a former banana warehouse (thus the banana motif) and reminiscent of New York's famous Chelsea Market, this two-storey indoor street-food collective delivers everything from vegan tacos at Club Mexicana to Japanese soul food at the tiny outpost of Brixton's Nanban. Sun streams through the glass skylights by day, live music gets the party vibe going at night.
