3 of London's Best Street Markets by London Perfect

The streets of London are the birthplace of many coveted fashion trends throughout history. London’s eclectic sense of style has influenced many fashion directives and designers alike. Visiting London’s best street markets are an ideal weekend pursuit. Hopping between street markets, whether for fashion, food, flowers, or antiques, is the best way to see the behind-the-scenes London. The browsing, the banter, stopping for a cuppa…it’s all part of the experience. Our London Perfect team loves wandering the markets, scouring for great locations and deals, and here’s what we believe are three of London’s best street markets.

London’s Best Street Markets

Portobello Street Market

Portobello Market

The world’s most iconic antique market, Portobello Market, is open every day except Sundays. Its fashion and clothing vendors are open Fridays and Saturdays. Friday is the popular day for marketing since there are less stalls and fewer crowds, but the vintage clothing stalls at Westway on Saturday are a treat if you have a few hours to browse and scour the merchandise for an original vintage garment or collectible.

Want to stay in Notting Hill? Check out our Leicester apartment, which sleeps up to four people. This luxury rental is located just a short walk away from Portobello Road Market and all its treasures.

Brick Lane Street Market

Along with the tourists blanketing the area, the fashionistas and creative types flock to Brick Lane Market on Sundays, where they come to experience the latest fashion from new upcoming designers, rediscover second-hand clothing, and find vintage wares. Brick Lane is in London’s hip East End neighborhood, amidst an incredible maze of cosmopolitan cafés, bars, and superb Indian restaurants. Visitors can’t forget the food area, which includes tiny food stalls from around the world: dim sum, tapas and burgers, which help make it one of London’s best street markets. There’s also a selection of home décor stalls and the occasional sample sale.
