Travelers, take some time out of your busy tourist itinerary to visit Borough Market for a bite to eat. Londoners, ditch the supermarket and stock up your fridge with a range of natural produce and world foods at Borough Market!
Visit the market on Thursday, Friday or Saturday for the largest variety of market stall goodness.

I’ve been converted to buying my fruit and veg at Turnips!

As well as stunning fruit and veg, you can delight your senses (and stomach) with food from all around the world.
My favorite cheese stall would have to be Jumi London, with its fine Swiss cheese produce.

and here are some more of my personal favorites…
Sweet Treat
Dip into some truffle, honey and cheese.
A La Francaise
Une Normandie a Londres is a perfect place to buy your French cheeses and meats.

Catch of the Day
Sample some fresh oysters with a glass of prosecco at one of the various fresh fish stalls at Borough Market.
Take Me to the Turkish
There are a few olive stalls in the market though my personal favorite was this Turkish one.
Pot of Love
Flower Power
These little beauties made my day!
So abandon the usual Trafalgar Sq./Covent Garden/Notting Hill tourist traps for a bit of flavor and traditional London market life at Borough Market. Stick around until 4pm when the stalls begin to close for discounts and bargains.
How to get there: Take the tube to either London Bridge (Northern, Jubilee Line) or Borough (Northern Line), the market is a stone throw’s away.
Love London.
