Dozens of micro-restaurants & bars, plus bookshop & event space
"A London market run by the same operator that demonstrates previous experience operating multi-vendor food halls and serves as a reference point for how the new downtown project might be managed and programmed." - ByBecky Duffett
"An indoor market in Covent Garden undergoing a revamp centered on “Cucumber Alley,” a formerly street-facing walkway now managed by the Kerb street-food collective; the overhaul is bringing more off-street traders into the space. The revamped alley will host a new unit from a Bethnal Green Hong Kong/Malaysian bakery noted for its East and Southeast Asian sweet and savoury buns, desserts, and standout items such as kuihs and its coconut‑and‑custard “ong ong nom.”" - James Hansen
"Opened by the street-food operator Kerb, this central-London market has been able to partially reopen after the pandemic, in contrast to several other large halls that remain closed, reflecting an uneven recovery across the city's food-hall sector." - James Hansen
"Opened six months ago in Covent Garden, this celebrity-fronted burger restaurant has reportedly suffered declining trade and been subject to claims that Mark Wahlberg and his family want to sell after the initial hype faded. Early reviews were lukewarm — the Guardian’s Grace Dent called it “puzzling” — and many have described the overall offering as deeply “meh,” arguing that neither the burgers nor the brand feel compelling compared with established rivals like Shake Shack. High operating costs have been highlighted too, with the site reported to carry about £1.2 million in annual rent. The operators have denied closure or sale reports, insisting the location is their regional flagship, reaffirming commitment to British suppliers, staff and investors, and announcing a menu relaunch and interior refurbishment." - James Hansen
"A Kerb-operated market in the Seven Dials area referenced as another example of the recent proliferation of curated food-market spaces in central London." - James Hansen
