About this space

A large, open-plan food hall where casual and fine dining sit side by side. Il Riso, our pizzeria and pasta artisans anchor the floor, with a dedicated wine bar and cocktail bar giving guests two distinct drinking points. Exposed concrete pillars and dark polished floors are warmed by timber tables and chairs — an industrial market shell with real character, and a room that needs almost no styling to feel like an event. Suits long-table dinners, cocktail receptions and mixed formats alike.
