Borough Market: Foodie Heaven by the Thames

London’s oldest food market is now a destination for artisanal treats and global flavours.

Must Try

• Fresh oysters with a splash of lemon.
• Grilled cheese sandwiches oozing with cheddar.
• Spices, cured meats and craft coffees from dozens of stalls.

Planning

Open most days; busiest Thu–Sat. Arrive before noon for easier browsing. Closest tube: London Bridge.

Tip: Eat standing — seating is limited — and bring a tote for gourmet souvenirs.
