    A market at the southern end of London Bridge is first mentioned in 1276. In 1755 it was closed by Parliament for causing congestion, but soon reopened and is now one of London’s busiest.

    This place is fantastic, but it's loved by tourists, so be smart about when you choose to go. Also: shame it's not open on Sunday!

    Wake up with a coffee at Monmouth Street Coffee roasters. Too much good food to recommend just one. Wash down lunch with a prosecco in the summer or warm cider in the winter.
