About Mercato Metropolitano Wood Wharf

Hosting a Christmas party in Canary Wharf? Mercato Metropolitano Wood Wharf has got you covered. With a wide variety of food vendors, a diverse drinks list, and a range of versatile spaces - including four outdoor igloos - this multi-level food market is the perfect place to host a Christmas party.

You’ll find it in the heart of Wood Wharf, amongst leafy gardens and overlooking the River Thames. The venue boasts five spaces for hire - both indoor and outdoor - depending on the size of your guest list. Large parties are well-suited to the ground floor dining space, with a capacity of up to 250 standing. Long banquet tables and high bar stools create a casual, social backdrop to your event, with the MM Bar on hand to mix up some classic cocktails, as well as wine, beer and soft drinks.

If you want to keep the festive celebrations a little smaller, the basement floor is suited to up to 80 people standing. The space acts as a blank canvas, with the option to decorate how you wish, and boasts a karaoke suite, for belting out those cheesy Christmas tunes!

At Christmas time, Mercato’s outdoor igloos come into their own. There are four in total, each housing ten people, situated around an intimate circle table. Cosy blankets and warm lighting makes you forget the temperature outside, while still enjoying gorgeous views over Canary Wharf.

Mercato Metropolitano’s wide range of food stalls keeps the Christmas grub interesting, whether you think Italian gelato should be a year-round treat, or fresh homemade pasta can be made festive too.

Whether you’re looking to host an office-wide Christmas party in London’s financial district, or seeking a unique igloo-style setting to celebrate the festivities, Mercato Metropolitano Wood Wharf is particularly special at Christmas time.

"The pizza from Neapolitan Pizza is very good!"JULY, 2025

Great place to grab a bite with plenty of options and plenty of space to sit inside and out. The outside in particular is really nice when the weather is good with views of the docks!
