RMBAugust 3, 2017If you visit Borough Market go straight to the Bread Ahead Bakery for a vanilla custard filled doughnut.u won't regret 😋
Dr Trish SandersMarch 28, 2019I love coming here as one of my favorite things to do in London ... love the rich diversity of food, organics, people and culture!
Lydia BerkennouMay 7, 2016Love this place so much. Avoid weekends if you want to stroll around the market peacefully. A bit expensive but good quality products.
There's not much that isn't good here. If you want a good take on a British classic though, head to the stalls under the bridge and get yourself a warm scotch egg with sweet potato fries. Delicious.
Polina VolikovaJuly 30, 2014Great place for food addicts!!! Must visit and ask to try cheese, ham and truffles. Take a glace of prosecco with fresh oysters😍😍😍👍👍👍
Vivian FranchiniFebruary 6, 2014If you love pasta, I highly recommend La tua Pasta. Freshly made Italian pasta with tomate sauce or pesto sauce to choose from. Amazing taste and great value (around £5). Love Love it.
Sapasapa ChaiAugust 6, 2017Great market must tried the oysters Super fresh and sweet. The salt beef bagel must request them to toast the bagel before serving you, it taste much much better.
Gracia AltaMay 6, 2018Food in overload. So don't forget to fill your bank. Luckily they gave out sample tastings so I could try before buying. Very crowded but that gives the place it's charm in my opinion.
Dylan HenryApril 25, 2015The olive shop is to die for, wonderful staff recommend things and give samples. The market is a cheese lovers dream. But for an epic treat, grab yourself a chicken pad Thai. Yes yes oh yay.
Widley considered to be the best market in the country, and it is. One of my favourite places in the whole world, get there early to avoid crowds and get a cheeky sausage sandwich.
Borough Olives do the best kalamata tapenade I've ever had. Try the 24 month matured comté and the blue cheese sausage at the French Comté stall. Lively atmosphere. A personal favourite.
Ines GonzálezMarch 14, 2015A lot of variety and kinds of food! Everything delicious! The ambient is so good and the place too. You could go and eat or buy something there and pass a nice time🍝🍔🍛🍱🍩
Little Miss Coffee SnobNovember 10, 2018Borough Market has always been one of my favourite food markets in London. It’s definitely worth the visit if visiting London.
N. C.December 16, 2013The rock oysters that are shucked right in front of you are some of the best I've had straight from the estuary at Essex. So fat, sweet, and sublime. Also ended up picking up some truffle honey.
Fatima FatimaOctober 3, 2017Everything is delicious! You have to go with a group in order to share the maximum food!
After few visits, I got my eating itinerary worked out :) raw scallops, clams & oysters, fresh juice, grilled scallops with bacon strips, chorizo sandwich and finished it off with cheese (samples)!
Andreas GerolemouDecember 15, 2015Go as early as you can to avoid the throng of people that come for lunch. Excellent variety of things to eat. Good place to find edible gifts for Christmas!
- BrokeinLondon.comDecember 22, 2013#1 The market can be super busy so make sure to get there early if you want to avoid the crowds. There are lots of free samples to try as you make your way around! Read more

Timothy BurdonApril 30, 2015Stalls to check out :British charcuterie, French comte Potted gameAlso get a flat white from Monmouth coffee and a raclet toastie from the raclet stand. It will change your life... Trust me
Come during the week to avoid the crowds! Check out Brindisa for superb Spanish food, and Bread Ahead for the best baked goods.
Naina ShahaniAugust 29, 2018Incredible paella and calamari. There’s a stall that does delicious Turkish delight sweets, especially the rise & mint flavours
Elena E.May 5, 2015An explosion of colours, sounds, smells and flavours. You can try and buy this world and and another here. I was lucky enough to work here for a while and it's an experience I'll never forget.
Laura LópezFebruary 22, 2015Yesterday, I went to Borough Market with a friend and we bought a box of strawberries for 1 pound, which can cost 3 quid at Tesco, and a massive white chocolate cookie for 2 pounds, I loved it!
Maggie WalshDecember 1, 2015LOVE. Spice mountain is a fantastic and reasonably priced stall. Love the mushroom pate from the big mushroom place, and the tapenade and pesto from borough olives. :)
AnnetteOctober 19, 2014Visit the Comptoir Gourmand stall for irresistible traditional French patisserie. Hand made treats. Tarts from £2.90 / Tray of Macaroons for £5
Andrew CAugust 24, 2018Smaller than expected, as its built under the highway/train tracks... plenty of cultured food shops, lots of raw meat/fish sellers too!! Conveniently located nearby the bankside walking area
James FergusonApril 3, 2022A London institution with great selection of fresh food, fruit and veg. Many food stalls offering up tasty food from all over the world. Don’t miss Juma’s Iraqi food!
New York HabitatJuly 17, 2012This is a great place to go on an empty stomach! There is an amazing selection of food ranging from delicious sandwiches and cheeses to wine! There are also plenty of samples for you :-)- Serkan GörürJanuary 29, 2015You MUST visit this place. Go there between 12:00 and 13:30 and have lunch.

Jordi LlobetMay 4, 2015One of the bests markets on town about food. The different mini-stores insde have a lot of interesting and good products. It's full of tourists but you can find a lot of good stuff in there.
Ana FortunatoJanuary 10, 2015Love this market - bought there some cheeses and dry tomato and were absolutely good! It is a nice place even for a quick lunch or a glass of wine w/a friend.

V HMarch 26, 2015Any chance I get to come to Borough Market leads me straight to the Bread Ahead Bakery stall in desire of a vanilla custard filled doughnut. They are the best fluffiest yet plumpest things!
Alana DixonApril 8, 2013Pork belly baguette blew my mind. Also, if you are looking to get your chimichurri fix in London, a la Argentina, this is the place to do it! Take-away pottles for about a fiver... winning.
Emily FallonSeptember 19, 2016So much great food with greater people. Stopped by Portena and had excellent empanadas. May or may not have tasted cheese at every stall. 🙌🏻
Saad AlawwamSeptember 16, 2018Good fresh market place. (Think farmers market for 🇺🇸) overall good vendors with fresh ingredients, spices & foods
Best to arrive before noon and best the wall to wall crowds. Most of the farmers market crowd is on the east side. The prepared lunch vendors are on the west side.
Wonderful place for foodlovers and cooklovers. Fresh ingredients in an amazing variety. The Oliver's Bakery brownie is a special treat when you need a sweet treat.
Deepika SinghJuly 27, 2013Great vegetarian food available too .. loveddddd it ..middle eastern falafels, hummus wraps, sandwiches, English vegetarian bakes, Gujarati thali, pastas, some Turkish delights, chips with boiled veg
It would be a nice idea to try and open it at least one Sunday per month. It would be very popular with tourists and locals
Very Good ServiceDecember 31, 2016Some fantastic products. A food market in London with many stalls offering street food but service can depend on the mood of the traders...
Yasmin A.August 7, 2014Some of the finest produce available in Britain. You will find all sorts of amazing delicacies here from Wild Venison sausages to Oysters to cheeses
Louis VuittonApril 5, 2012To experience a literal taste of Dickensian London, go to Borough Market. Explore stalls of local produce including wild game, one feels like Oliver Twist himself. Kristin Knox, The Clothes Whisperer
