Although you’ll find some everyday items and antiques at this little Sunday market (11am-4pm), located between Homerton High Street, Lower Clapton Road and Lea Bridge Road, it specialises in street food, selling everything from sushi rolls to haggis. There are the obligatory fancy cheese, cakes and bread stalls, some of which you’ll recognise from Broadway Market, as well as fresh fish and organic meats on sale. A brilliant greengrocers sits at the upper end, while an upmarket Spar near Homerton Station, which has the cute Castle Cinema above it, is the place to pick up olive oils and wine. A row of independent shops selling gifts, antiques, children’s clothes, toys, and pet grooming supplies runs up the street. Alim Kheraj
A brilliant friendly Sunday street market with lots of interesting food stalls, clothes, fresh organic vegetables, flowers, cheese, cakes, jewellery and bric-a-brac - perfect to while away the day. Chatsworth Road is full of cafes and when the market closes you can just amble over to the Elderfield pub who have free jazz sessions in the afternoon.
Enuff already. I regularly buy bread at Percy Ingle and get jerk chicken from Too Sweet at least once a week - I also trade and shop at the market - you can do both!
Thanks for the kind words Time Out, if anyone's interested, Evi the Greek and her amazing spinach pies have a website here @ http://www.evisgreekfood.co.uk
