    Lively market place with lots of groceries and street foods. Maybe a bit touristy. Close by Tate Modern.

    For those that know how to eat good food. If you are coming on a Friday make it around 14:00 you will find the best offers. Try the Bath Cheese company any of their three cheeses.

    So much good stuff here! Chorizo sandwich is probably one of the most notorious things to eat here, but there is plenty of other great choices too.

    Beautiful covered market, one of the oldest in London! Great for a meal/drink. But all the actual groceries are grossly overpriced

    All the tips recommending Brindisa's chorizo sandwich are bang-on. It is amazing. Brave the (invariably very long) queues, it's well worth it. Roast to go also do an awesome pork belly sandwich.

    Packed on a Saturday so try to get there on Thursday/Friday instead. The chorizo burger is a *must*. It will both blow your mind and change your life.

    Try anything from The Cinnamon Tree Bakwey. Best brownie of my life! (sea salt and white choc cookies, macaroons and Orange and pecan shortbread are also favorites!)
