best London market for a Saturday afternoon
Our first Saturday afternoon in London - after the Trooping of Colour - is free to meander and explore. We thought we might enjoy one of the markets. My daughter likes funky clothes, my husband likes antiques, and I like food (ha!). Which market would you recommend?

Oops, I'm sorry! I meant Trooping THE Colour.

Clothes - Camden Market (which also has a small antiques bit)
Antiques - Camden Passage (which isnt the same as Camden Market - it's in Islington) or Portobello Rd Food - Borough Market. Choices choices choices. Innit. |
You can check out Portobello Road. Usually, people try to get there early on Saturday mornings but it's open in the afternoon. Not sure there are many bargains but might fit the bill.

If you go to Portobello road market there are vintage clothes for your daughter and antiques for your husband - you can go to the cupcake shop but apart from that it's not really a food place. Personally I hate the place but I think it fits your requirements best.
Maybe you could go to Borough market first for lunch since that's the real foodie market. Or Spitalfields has nice food stalls and restaurants for lunch and clothes stalls for your daughter, but I'm not sure about antiques. |
