The crown jewels, Buckingham Palace, Camden Market…in London, history collides with art, fashion, food, and good British ale. A perfect day is different for everyone: culture aficionados shouldn't miss the Tate Modern and the Royal Opera House. If you love fashion, Oxford Street has shopping galore. For foodies, cream tea at Harrod’s or crispy fish from a proper chippy offers classic London flavor. Music and book buffs will love seeing Abbey Road and the Sherlock Holmes Museum (at 221B Baker Street, of course).

This pair of bronze sculptures is the work of artists Gillie & Marc and form part of a series called Travel Everywhere With Love, which is a global art project intended to put versions of this installation in a hundred different locations round the world. There are already versions in the Netherlands, across Australia, across China, New York City, Singapore, and Indonesia, as well as in major galleries and private collections. The Spitalfields version has been deliberately placed close to a branch of Costa Coffee. A really interesting addition to the Spitalfields area.

Open 7 days a week, it is the perfect antidote to the high street. We bring together small producers with local creatives and artisans, original independent retailers and a few well-known brands under one historic roof. Our daily market is home to a selection of carefully chosen traders, craftsmen, artists and artisans alike, picked for the quality of their product, and the stories they have to tell. We are interested in how things are designed, the creative process and the interesting people who produce the products you’ll find here. We champion quality and responsibly sourced products and we assess each operator individually on this basis. In the centre of the market floor you will find our ten fully fitted kitchens where we showcase exceptional contemporary and authentic cooking. We are proud to offer new levels of quality and variety in the dishes prepared by our chefs and operators, many of whom have already established great
Nice selection of food (Dumpling Shack - ShengJianbao and Monty’s Deli - Pastrami Sandwich were our winners) after visiting Brick lane and its vintage shops.

This historic street dates back approximately 450 years, and is now a popular place for great Indian food and Sunday markets.
Been here a few years ago, wasn't disappointed with my second visit. The place is still as vibrant as ever, the indoor food market is heaven…...make sure you do the full tour before starting to eat as there's so much variety to choose from. Many food stalls outside also, together with a converted London Cab that's a coffee stall…...not just a novelty photo opportunity, a super cup of coffee too! Try the Dutch pancake stall if you have a sweet tooth...delicious :-) Spitalfields market within walking distance on the way back to Liverpool Street, also worth a visit...

Brick Lane's famous Upmarket is one of London's biggest and most diverse food halls. You'll find an array of street style food as well as an assortment of artisan producers and independent makers/designers. One of the seven Truman Markets.
The entrance to Brick Lane Upmarket is a bit hard to find- at the bottom of Brick Lane opposite the chocolate shop, but once you're in there is a HUGE selection of amazing street food, plus the low prices mean you can try a few things without spending much. It's connected to an amazing vintage market underneath, which you can access through the neon pink staircase/photo op. We didn't realise there were so many markets this end of Brick Lane.. will definitely be back!
