About this activity
Borough Market is one of - if not THE - most iconic market in London. With its rich history spanning 1000 years, the market is part of London's lifeline and is located right next to the very imposing yet beautiful Southwark Cathedral.
Borough Market today is run by a charitable trust for the benefit of the community, and is a place where the family can stroll, take in the sights, the cultures, the smells, and the tastes. The location is also amazing too, right near the Thames and London Bridge!
What was once a wholesale market serving the greengrocers of south London is now a place where sustainable food can be found (catering for all dietary requirements), drawing visitors from far and wide.
What's so fun about visiting Borough Market is that there are just so many different vendors to be found, in a truly historic setting. Kids will love going up to all the stalls and seeing what is on offer (here's a hint, if you love cheese, keep an eye out for the unbelievable grilled cheese sandwiches!)
A really fun, iconicly London destination for the family!
