The MAINE

The MAINE arrived in Mayfair in November 2021, bringing the Dubai-born New England Brasserie concept to a restored 18th-century Georgian townhouse on Hanover Square. Founded by Canadian restaurateur Joey Ghazal, this New England-inspired restaurant and bar stretches across five characterful rooms and a courtyard terrace, with around 350 covers over three floors, so guests can choose the mood that suits them best – from sunlit terrace lunches to candlelit suppers in the Brasserie and Tavern. Expect classic American brasserie favourites, from fresh-shucked oysters, seafood towers and Maine lobster to prime steaks, pastas and indulgent desserts, paired with cocktails, Champagne and a smart yet relaxed service style. Heritage architecture, polished wood, and statement chandeliers reference the building’s Georgian history, while the soundtrack and lighting keep things firmly current, making The MAINE Mayfair a natural choice for business lunches, pre-theatre dining, date nights and late-night celebrations in one of London’s most sought-after neighbourhoods.

Dining, entertainment and events in the heart of Mayfair

More than a restaurant, The MAINE has quickly established itself as a destination for live entertainment and memorable nights out in Mayfair. The Brasserie hosts live music every evening, with jazz, blues, soul and Cuban bands, while Thursdays to Saturdays add glamorous burlesque performances, creating a theatrical atmosphere that feels both polished and playful. Regulars book it for private dining and events, where dedicated planners help tailor menus for large groups, celebrations and corporate gatherings, supported by a smart-elegant dress code and an attentive floor team. Strong guest ratings on platforms such as TripAdvisor and OpenTable repeatedly highlight the food, service and atmosphere, reinforcing confidence for first-time visitors and planners alike, while reviews in national newspapers, luxury lifestyle magazines and hospitality titles have marked the opening out as a standout addition to London’s dining scene. For diners, hosts and event planners alike, The MAINE Mayfair offers a trusted address where seafood and steak, cocktails and cabaret come together in a distinctly Mayfair setting.
