Borough Food Market, London

Living in Paris meant London was only 2 hours away, as opposed to 24 hours. So I hopped on the Eurostar and spent a week there. A friend back home had told me I had to visit the Borough Food Market in South East London while I was there. So I did! After spending a good hour trying to find it, getting lost between the tube stop and London Bridge, I was home.

Apparently this is the market where the famous Jamie Oliver buys his fresh produce. And of course he would, there were stalls of fresh juices, traditional pies, olives, cheeses, fancy sourdoughs, cupcakes, practically anything! I couldn't resist sampling every cheese and every type of olive!

The market seemed to be a popular place for people grabbing a freshly made lunch in their break from work. If only the foodie markets at The Rocks were on during the week!

If you're off to London anytime soon, I highly recommend going to the Borough Food Market! It's a great place to spend a good few hours sampling food, listening to a bit of music and then somehow finding your way back to London Bridge!

Borough Food Market is open Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays. It's address is 8 Southwark St, London (tube - London Bridge).
