About us
Delicious, nutritious, naturally sustainable and unlike anything else on your plate, mushrooms are among the planet’s most fascinating produce and we can’t get enough of them. Figuratively, that is. For more than two decades, Mushroom Man has connected chefs, caterers, wholesalers and independent retailers with some of the world’s finest fungi. From our home in London’s iconic New Covent Garden Market, we supply the furthest reaches of the British Isles – and we’re proud to be the only business at the market dedicated exclusively to mushrooms. As specialists in both cultivated and wild mushrooms, we work with the seasons, with nature and closely with our clients to satisfy every kind of brief; big or small, near or far, familiar or exotic. And we love a challenge! Our dedicated team will scour the world to find the perfect mushrooms for your menu or your business. At Mushroom Man we keep our ears close to the ground, so we can let you know what’s available on the global market, when to expect a glut or shortage, and when a particular mushroom is at its best. Knowledge is power, but we like to think knowledge is flavour, satisfaction and value too. You could say we’re the best in our field (or forest).

Delicate yet bold, Chanterelle mushrooms are a true treasure of the wild! Their vibrant yellow-gold hue and distinct, funnel-like shape make them instantly recognisable, but their flavour truly sets them apart. With a rich, nutty taste and a hint of sweetness, chanterelles shine in simple dishes like buttery sautés, creamy sauces, or even tossed with fresh pasta. #MushroomManUK #ChanterelleMushrooms #WildMushrooms #SeasonalCooking #ForagedFlavours #FreshProduce #Mushrooms

Eryngii Mushrooms: The Mighty King Oyster! Known by many names – King Oyster, King Trumpet, or French Horn Mushroom – the Eryngii is truly the king of mushrooms! 👑 With its thick, sturdy stem and golden-tipped cap, this mushroom bears a striking resemblance to its oyster cousin but is much larger and meatier in texture. Cultivated Eryngii is consistently available, and its firm texture and rich umami flavour make it a favourite in kitchens, especially in Asian cuisine. From stir-fries to grilled dishes, the Eryngii’s robust nature holds up beautifully, adding depth and flavour to any dish. 🍜 Whether you’re grilling, stir-frying, or simply sautéing, Eryngii is a versatile mushroom that never disappoints. 🍽️ #MushroomManUK #EryngiiMushrooms #KingOysterMushrooms #WildMushrooms #AsianCuisine #GourmetMushrooms #FreshProduce #MushroomMagic #UmamiFlavours

Pied Bleu Mushrooms Meet the Pied Bleu, also known as the Field Blewit, Blue Stalk Mushroom, or Blue Foot – a true beauty in the world of fungi. 🌟 These little wonders have vibrant purple stems and delicate light blue caps, making them a striking addition to any dish.
