Bacon baps all the way from Nottinghamshire
Of course, you can get bacon baps at any farmers' market worth visiting. But when you get a bacon bap from The Barn Bacon Co, who come all the way from Nottinghamshire to Barnes every Saturday, you get something pretty special. Choose from white, granary or wholemeal bread and fill it with dry-cured bacon, free-range sausage and/or black pudding, free-range eggs fried to your preference, cheese, sweet confit onion chutney or chilli sauce.

Some of the best cakes in London
Described by Michelin-starred chef Jean-Christophe Novelli as 'the best chocolatier in France', Natacha-Charlez is very strict about where she sells her beautiful cakes, and the only market where you can buy her creations is Barnes Farmers Market. Get there early to get a piece of the pie though as she sells out fast, and rightly so.
Shiitake mushroom spring rolls and green papaya salad
Yes, you read that right. Stock up on boxes full of spicy, fresh Thai food from Boes Kitchen at Barnes Farmers Market. The smells alone will leave you wanting more. They do hot curries, cold salads and everything in between. If a bacon bap is too much for breakfast, try a box of their Thai goodness instead.
