Elaine’s London: NYC-Inspired Dining with Marble Style

London’s dynamic restaurant scene just welcomed an exciting new addition Elaine’s, a vibrant restaurant, bar, and takeout deli inspired by the rich culinary heritage of New York and featuring a custom marble countertop from Versital. Located at 77 Kingsway, on the edge of Covent Garden, Elaine’s offers an eclectic menu that pays tribute to the flavours and traditions brought to the Big Apple by generations of immigrants.

But it’s not just the food that tells a story the interiors, designed by Nanu Group, set the stage for an unforgettable dining experience.

We are proud to have played a key role in shaping the aesthetic of Elaine’s by supplying the exquisite marble countertops and table tops. Designed to exact specifications by Nanu Group and handcrafted in the UK, our marble surfaces blend timeless elegance with contemporary sophistication, ensuring that every guest’s experience is as visually stunning as it is delicious.

Craftsmanship That Defines Luxury

At the heart of Elaine’s lies an impressive art deco-style marble countertop, a true focal point that enhances the theatrical atmosphere of the space. Our handcrafted marble top elevates this design, providing both durability and a refined aesthetic that aligns perfectly with the restaurant’s tribute to New York’s storied delis and lively social scene.

Speaking about the vision behind Elaine’s, Nanu Group’s Design Director, Ellen Pryce, shared:

“The Interior reflects a design style that embodies the New York deli vibe often characterised by a blend of urban chic, nostalgia, and comfort. Exposed brick walls and cozy leather banquettes evoke that Tribeca ambience.” She added: “Elaine’s London captures the essence of the city’s eateries while appealing to a modern London audience. With a space for live music, Elaine’s London also brings a piece of Broadway to Kingsway.”

Every piece of faux marble we produce is crafted with precision and care, ensuring a flawless finish that meets the highest standards. The intricate detailing and natural beauty of our materials complement the warm and welcoming interiors envisioned by Nanu Group.

A Fusion of Functionality and Style

Marble is more than just a design choice it’s a statement. At Elaine’s, our surfaces not only enhance the aesthetic appeal but also provide the durability needed for a bustling restaurant. Whether it’s the sleek bar where cocktails are expertly crafted, or the elegantly set tables where guests indulge in handcrafted dishes, our marble plays a crucial role in shaping the overall experience.

Ellen Pryce also commented on the design journey, stating:

“We were given an empty shell on Kingsway to work with which was a dream come true, a blank canvas which meant that we could let our imaginations run wild with the layout and customer journey.”

The result is a space that seamlessly blends design, function, and atmosphere to create an experience that is both visually stunning and welcoming.
