Badiani Gelato Mayfair in City of London, Westminster

Really unfriendly staff. Asked for a cone initially, they gave me a cup and then they wanted to charge me extra for the cone. Instead of giving to me for free, they wanted to throw away the ice cream and start over. Shame there's people like that

Buen helado, pero el chico y la chica que trabajaban allí súper desagradables. No deberían tener gente tan maleducada de cara al público.

It's a pretty unique concept - food court inside an old church. We arrived right after their opening time, so it wasn't really busy. Plenty of tables were available. Some of them were reserved for big parties. They have 3 level of foods varies from oysters bar, beef burger, pasta, asian cuisines, gelato, alcohol drinks, etc... basically, you would easily to find anything to eat here. We ordered a ramen bowl, Thai egg fried rice with prawn and chicken, and Pad Thai prawn. Honestly, we didn't like the food here, but the ambiance was nice. There was staff coming to take your bowl away after you finished. I was very satisfied with the matcha drinks here and gelato. I highly recommend to try the matcha lemonade (original and yuzu with ginger flavor).

The worst dinning experience of my life : the card reader had bug and I was forced to pay 2 times (115 GBP each !) because the 1st transaction was not seen on their software. The manager, Sergio has come with a security guy, explained to me that the 1st transaction is an error from the banks servers, and promised to refund if the transaction is seen twice on bank account, and that I have to wait within 3 days for seeing the transactions. He gave me his email address etc. in order to send an email if so. And now... I have 2 actuals complete transactions on my bank account (what a surprise !), I sent them everything needed as a proof (bank screenshot, receipt, etc.) but no answer from Mercato Mayfair. I've just lost 115 GBP... As a summary : don't go here unless you want to have your money stolen.

Amazing place and great choice of food, it was a bit expensive for the portion size.

Amazing place. A must-visit in London. Food zone set up in a historic church. There are several restaurants and bars of a very diverse nature. We tried Indonesian street food at Pad Thai House. We ordered Pad Thai, of course. One with chicken and the other with Vege. The food was very good. We drank beer at the German Kraft Brewery WE RECOMMEND!!!

Top Location!!! This market is located inside a deconsecrated church, with many corners with street food where you can get food and then sit at the free tables. In the basement there are places to drink. It's really worth coming to see it and why not eat something too.

Iconic place to visit to enjoy dishes from all over the world

Lovely food market, however difficult to find places to sit, large selection of food.

Pretty place but overcrowded and expenaive for what it is. Not worth it in my opinion, maybe ok for a drink.

Great place for a group catch up. Loved the venue and everyone being able to eat what they liked, when they liked was perfect. It gets busy but the turnover was pretty quick so we didn't have a long wait for a (communal) table.

The pasta is so fresh and delicious! It’s a really cool atmosphere. Can be very busy on the weekends.

Really cool food market located in an old church with a great atmosphere. Quite busy when we visited during lunch hours, but the service was fast and we were able to find a table for five without having to wait too long. We tried the Neapolitan pizzas, pork bao buns, miso pork ramen, chicken katsu ramen and had some gelato and coffee for dessert. Can really recommend the miso pork ramen and the gelato which both were great. Mercato Mayfair is well worth a visit both for the food and atmosphere!

noisy, cramped food court in an old church building. food court food!

Amazing food, but we were very sad that one restaurant is torturing lobsters - it is really not acceptable to have live lobsters on ice!

Cool place, just fire. The food court in the former church surprised and amazed! Londoners have preserved the interior of the temple. We were there around 10 pm on Monday, there were a lot of people of different ages. It was difficult to find a table, but it was worth it.

Shared tables, everyone looks for food, very bad hygiene. What a very striking place and a nice experience.

Why there is no Midwestern corner food club ??

We were told to vacate our table in the middle of our meal on the terrace because there was going to be a film screening. There was no sign or warning at the entrance to the terrace. There were 6 of us, 4 adults and 2 children. When we complained to the manager, we were rudely told that no one else had minded. Well, it was because they had either finished or had just sat down and decided to go elsewhere The food and drinks were ok but massively overpriced. Much better to go to a proper restaurant or cafe nearby .

Very good place to eat well in London. A little expensive but very user-friendly.

Wonderful converted Greek church! Nice atmosphere and great food selection! Wonderful night out and great terrace areas. Easy to find a spot to sit, even though it seems busy

It's beautiful and a good spot for tourists looking for a quick bite and a unique experience. However it's super crowded and can be hard to find a table at peak times. The food is fine but don't expect it to be amazing.

Really cool place. A bit of a nightmare to get seating as it’s super busy so the experience for eating is not as good as just drinks + small bites

An unexpected place... you feel like you're entering a church and in fact it is... but you're amazed by hearing music and it's not that of a gospel choir... you're enchanted by the smells of cooking and the people sitting in the central aisles to eat and chat....brilliant place at the crossroads between the sacred and the profane

The place is super nice, very original, however the food is not up to par. Small portions, expensive and not very tasty. Tourist place.

Great atmosphere, chairs need upgrading and accessibility needs integrating, security guards were helpful in assisting wheelchair.

Truly a special experience, there are many stands offering the most varied cuisines in the world, all inside an old church which creates a very suggestive atmosphere. There is also a terrace at the top where it is even better. We tried the Mexican.

Amazing atmosphere of eating food in a church, the music is also fire

Good food variation. #AngeReview

Creatively done space, great ambience.

A fantastic venue conveniently located in the West End. This beautiful deconsecrated church provides a reasonable number of tasty food options, allowing our party to choose what they wanted. Being able to prebook a table was amazing, as it gets busy during the evening.

Old church converted into a gastronomic market, with different food stalls (Asian, Indian, Mexican, British...) It has several floors. Excessively noisy in my opinion and very crowded at the time we went. If you order several dishes at the same time at the same stand, they serve you one and after 10 minutes the first one was already cold. It may happen that there is no table where you can place your order and you have to go around the entire upstairs with the plates of food and with so many people it can be a bit complicated. On the underground floor there is a bar area, quieter and not so noisy. It is a picturesque place to see, but not to enjoy the food too much.

A beautiful place to have a good meal, the atmosphere is breathtaking, although quite loud...It's not easy to get a table though...

Service is a bit slow but good was good and atmosphere is amazing

Stunning unique location worth dining for the atmosphere alone. We had a big late lunch planned and had already eaten breakfast so went for something small in the form of a bao purely because I wanted to visit for the experience itself, after all how often do you get the opportunity to dine in a converted church? I personally found the bao very spicy and hence unenjoyable but they had plenty of different cuisines available so there’s certain to be something that piques your interest and I’d definitely still recommend a visit

Paying peak London prices to carry your own food and drink up and down those narrow stairs is a lawsuit waiting to happen...

A lot of options here. Still can't anything I like. We whined up eating fish and chip at neighborhood restaurant.

Very particular old church transformed into a food market, very popular, difficult to find a place

Lovely place indeed, the ramen was amazing

A food court in a church, an original experience! The place is magnificent. The food court is spread over 3 floors: the crypt in the basement, the ground floor with the main space and the upper floor. We took: - Bolognese and burrata pasta: very good. - a bao burger: small and quite expensive - a pizza: very good

Unique atmosphere, with a lot of choices for food and the ramen chicken katsu that I tried it was very nice dish

On Saturday afternoon it was buzzing with people, but we still found a spot for the four of us. We had a combination of nachos, tacos, loaded fries (Indian style) and samosas. It's all delicious, great that you can combine everything together in such a place! It's busy and a bit noisy, but I would definitely go back!

Old church converted into a market. A curious experience.

Not comfortable at all. Too much demand for the capacity. I wonder about the safety of the staircase going up and down with that many people. They should reduce the amount of people let in at once.

Our ramen was quite bland. Getting a table nearly impossible. But what surprised me most was the lovely couple sitting next to me, had a sio of water from their water bottle only to be told they weren't allowed as they hadn't bought it from the premises even though they had so much food. Really, really poor from security. Won't be returning.

This place is incredible. It is a church that they have converted into a place with many food and drink places but maintaining the style and interior architecture of a large Catholic church. I had never seen this before. And the truth is that the experience was great.

Really good. I had the vegan Mexican food from upstairs. There’s booze and sushi hidden away in the crypt too.

An exceptional setting and good food at low prices! An experience to do if you are in the neighborhood

Amazing space to visit and eat in. Very helpful staff.

Gem of a place with a unique location in a church. Open restaurant layout means one can get a variety of meals.

The vibes are immaculate. Was thrilled to see a Club Mexicana there, which is the best place to get vegan tacos. We found a table on a Sunday right on top. A note: the lift was out of service and the stairs are tucked away.

Matcha Canele sold near the entrance is very delicious!

Gets very busy so make sure you come early if not pre booked. Beautiful architecture inside. Extremely clean toilets.

Alcohol in the church 🤨⛪️ not sure that was good idea🤔 I couldn’t eat there

This was a nice quirky spot for lunch, and they have a pretty good selection of food, from pizza and pasta to noodles and tacos. My only problem was that for such a large space downstairs, the awkward choice and positioning of tables made it hard to find seating for 3 people.

Superb use of a church. Finnaly a good one.

Great place to meet in the city and they allow children which can be hard to find in the city if you are not in a typical high st chain. Great variety of high quantity vendors to choose from.

Beautiful building and amazing selection of food and drinks

Fun, buzzing and beautiful building that hosts a food hall full of great street food and drink options. The prices are very reasonable for the area. You can’t go wrong here and everyone will find the location spectacular. There is a crypt and upstairs area, neither of which are to be missed.

Hidden gem just opposite to Selfridges, its like a food court in church. Loved the plants & phots shop at entrance & we tried only gelato at badiani, which was good.

Such a cool food hall in an old church! We loved it here. Great food options. The brewery inside it had one of the best beers we had in London. Check it out!

Great place to come and discover and obligatory if passing on Oxford street.

A church that has turned into a food and beverage market and has a wonderful atmosphere.

A strange place, but definitely worth seeing

We were beyond glad to stumble upon this place. A food hall built in an old church. Great food options and upbeat atmosphere. Highly recommended!

Nice converted church. Good food options, tried the Thai was nice and big portions. Good rooftop seating area

Food was good, price is too high for fish and chips with 23 pounds. Waiting to dine in was horrible as around 45 to 60 minuits in que. Also they charged me around 6 pounds for service.

First time in London and wanted to visit this interesting food hall in a deconsecrated church. Wasn’t expecting the food to be top tier, but it isn’t even worth one star and is overpriced. Also was hounded by staff to move so a larger group could be accommodated. When we obliged, the group no longer wanted to move anyway. There was also plenty of available seating on the lower floor, so why were we asked to move in the first place? Will not be coming back. Don’t waste your money here, there are better food options in the area.

Great Tacos from Club Mexicana upstairs. Their frozen margaritas looked lush, but didn't try them this time round. Very busy with limited seating. Was hoping to get some work done, but was too busy.

Massive food hall in an old church building. Great atmosphere. Great food. Self service.

Set in the Beautiful St Mark's Church with its high ceilings and stained glass windows makes Mercato Mayfair a unique food court to chill at. Extremely popular amongst the trendy Londoners and tourists, it hosts various good quality food vendors, themed restaurants and ice cream parlours. The wine bar in The Crypt has a decent wine list. This place is worth making several trips to!

Overpriced as are all food courts but the interior is gorgeous ! Worth visiting even if you are not getting food there

Very nice location and the food was amazing.

An absolutely stunning view and what an amazing idea. Amazing food places and stalls. The interior is absolutely amazing.

How dare you turn a Church into a market and by what I’ve read here as of one review you do not even let people bring their own water into it, you have turned a church into an overpriced money making market. You should be really ashamed of what you have done. Luke 19:45-46 When Jesus entered the temple courts, he began to drive out those who were selling. “It is written,” he said to them, “‘My house will be a house of prayer’; but you have made it ‘a den of robbers.’”

Too long to wait to get food. You can only drink certain drinks in certain bars, so if some of your group want beer, and others want wine you have to stand in different areas. Mental! Go to Arcade instead. They have it sorted.

Really really unique setting for a food fair. The food we got was great!

Showed up on the day of their Oktoberfest special, a hugely pleasant surprise 😀 will defo visit again

This is the most unique and exquisite food scene in London where they actually turn an actual church into a high-end food court. The food and service are not necessarily the best, but the atmosphere is superb and it's an food experience that you shouldn't miss out in London.

Excellent use of a space. More of these in London. Vegan taco place is a must. Get there early for small tables and book online for large groups.

An old church converted into a gastronomic space in the heart of London, next to Speaker's Corner in Hyde Park. On the ground floor there are different food stalls where you can order, and you eat at the common tables in the central area. Upstairs there are several restaurants. We tried food from different stalls and we liked it. It's great that everyone can order what they want and eat together.

Amazing food, quick service, and a warm atmosphere. The staff made us feel welcome, and every dish was beautifully cooked. A must-visit for any food lover!

Fun place in a disused church with various food stalls.

A unique place, worth stopping by for a coffee and a cake.

Beautiful church now a selection of foods and outside Café

Amazing vibes. It's a church that's turned to eatery. Multiple restaurants within two levels.

Had THE most delicious Gin cocktails made for us by Annabel who also gave the best service, customer care and personal touch we experienced anywhere else in London Today Thank you Annabel x

Mercato Mayfair at St.Marks Church. Saw it on Instagram the day before, what should you think of it... But: The tip was great, the food was great, it was pretty quick (pasta with truffles, £16.50) and the atmosphere there is unbelievable. Choice of food is very large, from pasta, pizza, burgers, sushi, Mexican, fish, seafood, steak... to everything that tastes good. Plus German draft beer, a cocktail or wine - it's all there. You can also go to the roof, there are a few tables here, although the view isn't that great, but: eating on the roof of a church... Bars in a crypt in the basement. Mega. Taxi from Big Ben cost about 20 pounds, 20 minutes - but there was also a lot of traffic. Conclusion: Yes, do it!!! Especially in bad weather.

As a curiosity to watch, it is on the main list to watch. If you want to eat something, be prepared for a long wait. The place is visited by crowds.

Not a family place! Lots of people just drinking and food quality is low. This is nothing hip about it. Dirty and smelly.

Nice place, good food, but crazy expensive!

The food was fresh and delicious, and the service was fast. The cozy setting and friendly staff made it perfect for a relaxing meal. Will return soon!

The lamb ribs are soft and delicious without any smell. The margarita at the taco place is very friendly and rolls up well. To finish off, I enjoyed a large gin and tonic.

Well, a very interesting decision... It is necessary to visit at least once. Many restaurants have been established in the old church without changing the old interior... All stained glass windows and other church decorations have been left... A live DJ is playing

A little too chaotic. We tasted something at the Spanish restaurant and were satisfied, but I couldn't say about the other restaurants. Suggestive location even if the sacred-profane contrast was a bit jarring. It's worth a visit, it's very central and it's a good alternative to yet another hamburger.

Very crowded and you have to be patient and lucky to get a table but people move in and out fast. So it’s not a problem. There is a gorgeous smell of tuber rose as you walk through the main door from a gift shop at the entrance and then WOW you are drawn to the to huge stainglass and murals and you look up at the balcony and ceiling of a beautiful deconsecrated church. There is such a lively buzz here. It’s not cheap but what is in Mayfair. Walk around to see what you want and take your time. We ate at Indian stall and it was amazing. Such great flavours-like street food. Really loved our visit.

Everyone will find something for themselves here. From pizza to burgers to sushi. Beers, wines and drinks. And all this in a beautiful old church.

Overall 4/5 While the ambiance is amazing, the place really gets too crowded during the weekends with poor management for seating. The options available across the two floor food halls are great you’ll get everything from indian to spanish, pan asian, german and your usual European cuisine along with cafes, but keep in mind the prices are on the premium side. A must visit, but avoid rush hours to enjoy this place to the fullest

Very popular fish and chips restaurant that my friend recommended me to visit. Quite a long queue waiting though I think it worth the wait. I ordered the classic, with 3 sauce, big portion of freshly cooked cod fish. I also ordered a fizzy drink rose lemonade as it was a sunny day!

We went there on the weekend; it was crowded so we had a difficult time finding a table. Loved the atmosphere, food was good. Will repeat however not on a weekend.
