The Mary Lane
About The Mary Lane
Located on the iconic cobblestone corner of Bank and Greenwich Streets, The Mary Lane is a quintessential West Village destination from Chef Mike Price and the Blackfoot Hospitality team. As the sibling restaurant to local fixtures like Little Owl and Market Table, this venue brings a refined farm-to-table sensibility to one of Manhattan's most charming neighborhoods. The main dining room is defined by floor-to-ceiling windows and bright, airy aesthetics, while the subterranean private spaces offer a more hidden, residential feel.
The culinary program focuses on seasonal New American fare, utilizing locally sourced ingredients to create market-based menus that change with the harvest. For private events, the restaurant leverages this "market-to-table" philosophy, offering guests a sophisticated but approachable dining experience. Whether it's a sunny brunch surrounded by floral-filled planters or a candlelit dinner in their tucked-away lower level, the venue captures the sophisticated yet neighborly spirit of the West Village.
