The Ultimate Guide to London's Best Sandwiches: A Culinary Adventure
Markets in London
Borough Market
Location: South Bank
Situated on the South Bank, Borough Market offers an extensive assortment of the best restaurants in London UK. With everything from odd ethnic cuisines to artisanal bread and deli items, this market is a food lover's paradise. Be prepared for throngs of people, but the delicious fare, such as Tua Pasta's black truffle tortellini, makes it all worthwhile.
Seven Dials Market
Location: Covent Garden
Located in the center of Covent Garden, Seven Dials Market is a compact yet energetic food enthusiast paradise. It's ideal for getting a fast bite because it has a central food court and a variety of mini-restaurants. Savor treats like Yum Bun's fried chicken bao buns and pig belly, which deliver a symphony of tastes.
Brick Lane Market
Location: Shoreditch
My particular favorite, Shoreditch's Brick Lane Market, is a treasure for lovers of retro apparel and cuisine. Wander down the lively street lined with permanent businesses, second hand stores, and food vendors. For a genuine and delicious experience, don't miss the bagel store, Biegel Bake Brick Lane, at the top of Brick Lane.
Chinatown, Soho
Location: Soho
While not a traditional market, Chinatown in Soho feels like a bustling street market with its numerous food stalls. Take a culinary journey through the streets, savoring delights like crispy chicken nuggets from Ji's Chicken or custard taiyaki from Chinatown Bakery.
Arcade Food Hall, Battersea Power Station
Location: Battersea Power Station
For a unique market experience, head to Arcade Food Hall at Battersea Power Station. This upscale venue combines street food with beautiful interiors and table service. The leek and parmesan flatbread and crispy squid are just a glimpse of the culinary delights awaiting you.
Camden Market
Location: Camden Town
While Camden Market is a popular tourist spot, it may not live up to the hype. The area is slightly sketchy, and the food stalls, though decent, might not surpass those in other markets.
