Southbank Centre Food Market

While culture vultures flock to the Southbank for its arty attractions, fans of world food circle around its Food Market beside the Royal Festival Hall seeking their weekly fix of street nosh, booze, coffee and artisan produce. Current traders include Kanji for katsu and teriyaki chicken, My Kids are Hungry for Vietnamese banh mi and rice bowls, Pabellon for Venezuelan arepas, Taco Bros for Mexican street food and Honestfolk cocktail bar. The market is normally open at the weekends (Friday, noon-8pm; Saturday, 11am-8pm; Sunday, noon-6pm), and it also operates on bank holiday Mondays.
