Spitalfields Market

7.2Locals Score / 10

#9 of 9 Markets & Food Halls in London

$$
Known foreast-endcovered-marketindependent-designersall-weather

A large Victorian covered market hall in the heart of the East End, now home to independent fashion designers, artisan food stalls, vintage traders, and craft vendors. It operates daily but Thursday through Sunday sees the full complement of traders and the best atmosphere. The food hall section offers genuinely good international street food for lunch. Being indoors makes it a reliable wet-weather option, though weekends draw significant tourist crowds.
