How worthwhile is the famous Borough Market, a must-visit for tourists in London? Today, Peyton & Charmed will take you on a mini-tour of the market.
Of course, famous places are always full of tourists and locals. But if you want to visit when it's less crowded, we recommend coming between Tuesday and Thursday, from 2 PM to 3 PM. If you're only free on weekends, you can still visit the market, but we suggest going in the morning to avoid the afternoon rush.
The easiest way to get to Borough Market is by taking the Underground to London Bridge station, as the market is right next to the station. You can also take a bus to the market; you'll need to find a stop near the market. For easier navigation, you can use Google Maps to find the best route from your location.
Borough Market Must-Eats
- Hobbs Roast: A famous baguette sandwich shop in the market that people are willing to queue for to try at least once. The shop offers a variety of meats to choose from according to your preference, whether it's beef, turkey, or pork.
- Khanom Krok: And if you're missing home and craving good Thai food, Khanom Krok is here to help you feel less homesick. We secretly assure you that the taste has been approved by Thai people like us – it's definitely delicious and satisfying.
- Padre: Although London isn't particularly known for its Mexican restaurants, if you visit this market, don't forget to try the tacos from the famous stall Padre.
- So Chocolicious: A Thai meal isn't complete without something sweet! If you're looking for delicious desserts, stop by and buy some fragrant and tasty chocolate truffles to cleanse your palate.
- The Free From Bakehouse: If chocolate isn't enough, we recommend another bakery and dessert shop. What's special about this place is that those of you who are allergic to cow's milk can enjoy the desserts here with peace of mind.
If you have the chance to visit Borough Market, don't forget to take pictures to show Peyton & Charmed! And if there are any shops outside of this list that you guarantee will be delicious for Thai people, don't hesitate to share them with us!
