Food as it was meant to be

From a highly successful opening in Milan in the summer of 2015, Mercato Metropolitano opened its first UK site in London last year. Occupying over 45,000 square feet with a retail format that empowers small producers, farmers and artisans through dedicated spaces designed around the love of food and drink, Mercato Metropolitano has quickly become the choice for discerning food lovers all over the capital.
