8 Southwark Street, London, SE1 1TL 

Supplying hungry Londoners for over 1,000 years (!), Borough Market is the original and still one of the best. Local suppliers are in abundance, they’ve adopted a superb approach to sustainability and, with stalls like Bermondsey’s raclette masters: Kappacasein, delicious and healthy Egyptian fare from Koshari and famous vegetarian Indian Gujarati Rasoi, top notch street food abounds. Here’s to 1,000 more years! 


Berwick Street Market

Berwick Street, London, W1F 0PH 

Although Berwick Street Market has been going for a mere 239 years, it nonetheless has a rich history of satisfying hungry Soho visitors. Fayz Hamidi specialise in Afghan Street Food, Jerusalem Falafel is one of the best wraps you’ll find anywhere in London and for something a little healthier, but no less filling, Savage Salads is your stall.
