Arabica Borough Market
About
Arabica Borough Market invites diners to experience an authentic taste of the Eastern Mediterranean right in the heart of London’s historic Borough Market. The restaurant blends Lebanese, Syrian, Jordanian and Turkish culinary traditions with a vibrant, contemporary atmosphere. Guests can enjoy a diverse menu from fresh meze‐style starters—such as hummus, baba ghanoush, and spinach‑boregi—to hearty mains like lamb kibbeh and a range of vegetarian options. In addition to plated meals, the venue offers a selection of freshly baked bakery items, like baklava and kunefe, and a variety of drinks featuring traditional teas and arak. The space boasts a warm, approachable ambience, airy seating, and a bustling market backdrop, making it suitable for a casual lunch, a relaxed dinner, or a family gathering. With a generous selection of gluten‑free, vegan, and halal options, Arabica is inclusive of many dietary preferences. Reservations are recommended, especially during peak dining times, but the restaurant also accommodates walk‑ins when space allows. The restaurant prides itself on real‑time, farm‑to‑table fare, sourced from artisanal producers across Lebanon, Syria, Jordan, Turkey and beyond. The menu changes periodically to showcase seasonal ingredients, offering diners a fresh culinary adventure every visit. Arabic Borough Market also offers the option of online food for delivery nationwide, providing the convenience of “finish‑at‑home” meals that can be prepared within minutes. The commitment to quality and community extends to sustainable practices, with free delivery past £75 and a recycling guide available online.
