New Orleans Seafood Boil


New Street Market invites you to a joyful, no-cutlery-allowed Seafood Boil. Think newspaper-covered trestle tables groaning with Cajun-spiced crawfish, crab, corn, sausage, and more—all served communally. We’re wildly excited to announce that a top chef will be leading the kitchen, bringing serious flavour and flair.

Each night features two live New Orleans–inspired music acts, and our bar will be shaking up limited-edition themed cocktails to match. This is your invitation to a full-sensory summer feast—fun, fiery, and finger-lickin’ good. Bring friends, bring appetite, bring bibs. Let’s boil.

LIVE MUSIC - Friday

Saturday - DOM PIPKIN

“One of the world’s greatest exponents of New Orleans music. A true piano talent” says @bluesinbritain magazine
“When Dom plays the piano magic happens” - Paloma Faith
“I can’t hold a candle to this guy” Jamie Cullum

Alongside a glittering session career (David Byrne, Ray Davies, Morcheeba), piano player and songwriter Dom Pipkin has been described by Blues in Britain as “one of the world’s greatest exponents of New Orleans piano”. He first discovered the New Orleans style in the early 90s, and has gone on to become a regular visitor and performer in that city, with appearances that include the highly acclaimed “Piano Night” and the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage festival. He is a regular fixture on the European blues and boogie-woogie festival circuit having played 1000’s of club and theatre, radio and TV dates in a career spanning nearly three decades. Jazz star Jamie Cullum says “I can’t hold a candle to this guy”. Pipkin regularly performs and records in New Orleans, and has shared stages with legends such as Allen Toussaint, Dr John and Screamin’ Jay Hawkins. Grammy award winner Jon Cleary invites him to jam whenever he’s in town. In live shows Pipkin mixes his own compelling songwriting with blues and Big Easy classics that “..cooks up a steaming musical stew that has the crowd dancing and clapping for more” (Classic Rock Blues Magazine). On screen, Pipkin stars in the new Netflix thriller, Black Doves (5 Dec 2024), and A Thousand Blows by the creators of Peaky Blinders (released Feb 21 2025), and can be seen jamming boogie-woogie with king of Kpop, Jay Chou, in the latest Rimowa commercial.

Alongside his own career, Pipkin has travelled the world with the band Morcheeba (with whom he has been associated since the band's inception in 1996). He is also active as an educator, running a highly popular New Orleans jam session in London, and writes articles based around keyboards for Blues Matters magazine.

Featured Maitre D’: Some know him as Colourful John, some know him as Trousers John, some know him as IL CONDUTTORE, but he is universally loved and is the beating hearty of every party from here to Timbuktarty, so we are proud as punch to say that JOHN SOUTHGATE will be your exuberant host for the evening. Prepare yourselves for the highest level of personal service. No inhibitions will be left when John has seated your party. He brings the fullest of disclosures to every interaction.

Heaven’s own Maitre D’” - Mr J Christ, recent customer.
