  • Borough market is the most happening market in London. Which caters food from all across the world. It is always lively with all those vibrant Color’s and josh all around with the smile on the people faces. There is something for everyone here. A must visit place during your visit to London. It’s all those vibes around here will give you a perfect packed soulful experience. Also a great spot photographers.
  • This is a great place to wander around and see all the variety of food, fresh veg, seafood and meats. I do find the prices a bit more expensive than most other markets but the quality of the produce is much better. I went there recently early Saturday morning and beat the tourist rush. The stall with the mushrooms have a great selection of rare mushrooms.
