Spitalfields Market.

Old Spitalfields Market is a lively, busy, trinkety market just off Brick Lane and close to Liverpool Street. There are stalls and stalls filled with some peoples junk that becomes other peoples treasure! There are old photographs, vintage tins, plenty of old cameras, retro clothing and jewellery and much much more.  


Within a huge building you can buy most things here for cheap prices and haggaling is something that happens on a regular basis with the stall owners. Its an escape from the high streets where you discover 'hidden gems' from fashion, arts to interiors and property, as you wander through areas steeped in history but recently immersed in creativity and cutting edge style. There something for everyone in Spitalfields!

The market stalls are open on thursday, friday and sunday each day has different stalls. The shops that surround the market are open all week and they sell interiors, fashion, foods, bits and bobs.

Thursday: Antiques and vintage 10 - 4
Friday: Fashion and art 10 - 4
Sunday: All the stalls 9 - 5

Generally shops are open from 11 - 7.
