Marlow: British food revisited
Located in the new Mareterra eco-district, Marlow is the Société des Bains de Mer’s brand new all-day dining concept. Managed by Bryan Gaillard, it has the chic and relaxed atmosphere of an English club. Designed by Franco-Mexican interior architect Hugo Toro, the restaurant pays tribute to elegance from across the Channel. Lady Marlow has come up with a menu that revisits traditional Anglo-Saxon cuisine with a touch of mischief: you’ll find a number of British specialities such as Beef Wellington, Scotch Eggs and Fish & Chips or the signature Marlow Pie and Marlow Brownie.
You can expect to pay an average of just over thirty euros for main courses, and around ten euros for starters and desserts.
Open from 8.30 am to midnight, Marlow changes mood as the day progresses, waking up gently, then becoming studious, friendly, joyful and finally festive. The restaurant also provides a takeaway service.

- Opening times : 8.30 am to midnight- Closed on Mondays and Tuesdays

WAM: a fast gourmet sandwich shop
The brainchild of Anthony Orengo and William Scheffer, WAM breaks new ground with a brand new concept: Stacks. The goal: cut an Italian-flavoured sandwich into three and stack it. The sandwiches are prepared with fresh ingredients and served on homemade artisan bread, which is a mix between a focaccia and a pizza dough base.
There’s a wide selection of stacks to suit all tastes. There are two meat options, two fish options and two veggie/vegan alternatives. There is also a choice of sides to go with your sandwich: crispy baked potatoes, original popcorn or fresh raw vegetables. The deal costs €19.90. The restaurant also has a takeaway service so you can feast in your favourite spot. Somewhere between a modern fast-food restaurant and a cosy café, WAM is open Mondays to Fridays from 7.30 am to 6.30 pm

- Opening times : 7.30 am to 6.30 pm – Closed on Saturdays and Sundays
