    An incredible diversity and a great place to acquire the unusual or to be inspired. A lot of times I think 'who thought of something like this', followed by 'and who buys stuff like this' :)

    Great cheap food from all over the world (be prepared to share your fare with the greasiest piggeons ever), acceptable pubs and retail paradise for your inner 14-year-old goth. What's not to love?

    A must see place in London,even if you are going for a few days. Creative people, good street food, lovely atmosphere. Seems far on map but very easy to access with metro and buses.

    It really is a must visit place if you are visiting London. Cheap, authentic food. Do not forget it is a street market so nowhere to sit really plus no credit cards accepted. Price range £5-£7

    Good range of street food stalls with a variety of cuisines. Recommend the churro stall, it's wicked. They squeeze the sauce right through the middle, chocolate/caramel or both.

    Craft based market in a small set of old warehouse buildings by the canal. Plenty of tourist tat, but also some good stuff in there too, including a couple of music stalls. Pleasant to wander around.

    Great little Bric a Brac market. Things you want, but don't need. Avoid going on the weekends as it becomes unbearably cramped. Lots of bars to hang around it when the shopping gets too much as well.

    The kielbasa stand near the lockside lounge is the real deal. They import their pickles from Poland and for some reason you can't find them anywhere in England.

    Food: Chinese is below par (potato in sweet and sour!?!) so your best bet is curry. Authentic taste and good value. Donuts are great (cinnamon ones are magnifique) too.
