Côte St Martin’s Lane offers French-inspired food and set-menu options, while Prezzo St Martin’s Lane is a family-friendly Italian option with pizza, pasta and choices for different dietary needs.

For something independent, La Roche serves food throughout the day, and Soom Korean Restaurant combines Korean dishes with cocktails and spirits.
