Borough Market
Best time to visit
Visit early on weekdays, from opening to 10:30am, for quieter browsing and the freshest bakery picks. For full market atmosphere and street food action, go Friday or Saturday around lunchtime.
Budget tips
No entry fee, traders sell individual portions so you can taste widely without committing to full meals, and most stalls accept cards though having some cash helps at smaller stalls.

About
Rychlá fakta: More than 100 British and European cheeses are piled on wooden boards, their sharp and creamy aromas mingling into irresistible waves. Weekend crowds often swell to several thousand people, producing long tasting lines and a pickup-and-chat energy that feels like a food-loving village.
Hlavní zajímavosti: Baristas at Monmouth Coffee pull single-origin espresso shots from beans roasted that same week, and popular roasts can sell out by 11:00 AM on Saturdays. A brass bell still rings when the freshest fish arrive, and one butcher keeps a handwritten ledger of customer orders and secret marinades that goes back decades.
Insider tips
- Wear comfortable shoes and a light layer, market aisles get busy and can be cooler under the roof.
- Arrive by 9am on weekdays to beat crowds and buy the best pastries and produce.
- Photograph the ornate Victorian roof from the northwest corner for a wide, less crowded shot.
- Avoid the main stalls on Stoney Street at peak lunch on weekends, explore side aisles for better value and shorter queues.
