Greenwich Market

Always love a wander round the covered market. There are frequently different things to look at. Prices can be quite "London", but no surprise there. The items for sale are largely hand-made and the cakes and drinks make a super pick-me-up on a stroll round the shops.

Fabulous market with so many options for dietary needs and fun shops x had a rum sangria that I sipped while strolling the market. Pick up some eats (we had the carvery) and then stroll to the park to enjoy your food on the lucious green! Hot tip, the bathroom situation is go into nearby stores and pubs. Most staff are friendly and understand the struggle

Greenwich Market is a great place to stroll, shop and eat - of course not necessarily in that order. 😀 You have small shops selling handicrafts, paintings, jewellery, Tees, lights under paper folding and lot of fancy stuff. The cost is slightly more but considering the effort it is okay. There are quite a lot of people around on weekends especially if it’s summer. There are regular shops as well selling curios, paintings, niche grocery etc. Connectivity is not great and shop keepers do not mind cash. We bought some original paintings. The market closes by sharp 6. You can spend some time in Cutty Sark as well.

Very nice Market with variable proposals of street food and hand made products. Nice area for walking and breath passion. I spent very good time with my family and tried tasty food. Suggested!

Really super place! I know you can visit online and see what stores do they have! Local craft and lots of mini stores! I bought myself gloves 🧤 for house painting of the cat 🐱 and very nice leather shoes 👞

Fun place to explore. Shops combined with stalls selling antiques, artwork, homewares, candles, perfumes all manner of goodies. Food stalls within undercover area and found outside. Seating is limited if looking to seat and eat. Food stalls are very good quality and reasonably priced.

Small and nice little market. Not so touristy mainly locals. Stumbled across is Portuguese food stall. The fish pie, cod fish cake and the pastel de nata was hands down delicious

It's a lovely little market with a good selection of stalls selling a wide range of goods including clothes, jewellery and art. There's a lot of fast food stalls selling food from around the world, I tried a few and the food was delicious.

Plenty of food choices to pick from. Limited seating of about 6 long tables out front available to sit at. We had Chicken Katsu curry and tortilla filled with meat. Everything was delicious. Great value for price.

I stumbled upon this market nestled inside the courtyard of the shops outside the Naval College and the Cutty Sark. Plenty of unique artisan booths and food make this a must visit while in Greenwich.

Small semi-open market with many varieties of food, crafts, antiques, used items, etc. We shared a tasty Venezuelan/Columbian style arepa. I wanted to look around at the vendor stalls, but the man hates shopping.

Super cute market focusing on artisanal handmade vendors with a small food stall section conveniently located in the heart of Greenwich adjacent to a handful of British Pubs, restaurants, incredible bakeries and Greenwich park. We found ourself revisiting daily while in the area of London. My only want would be more produce and farmer's market type vendors. A definite must when in Greenwich!!

Great food at the outdoor food market. We had a beef sandwich -- the melting cheese at that food stall is hypnotizing, and some Jamaican chicken. Not that many seating or standing options. And overall not as great vibe and food variety as at the Upmarket in Shoreditch and at Borough Market.

This market was delightful! The food in London overall wasn't all that great but this place was set up beautifully. Lots of vendors, and options for food as well. Definitely a spot I would come back to for drinks and to hang out on the weekend.

Greenwich Market is a cute, lovely market that packs a lot into a relatively small space. If you happen to be on one of the City Cruise boats, this is just a few minutes walk from the pier and a great place to check out. Much of the market is covered over, and it's smaller than Borough or Spitalfields but it's also easier to navigate. Vendors are a mix of tasty food stalls, handmade goods and flea market/vintage stuff. Prices in general were lower than most of the more central London markets. There's also a pub in one of the corners (and many more nearby). Lining the market are cute stores selling candy, souvenirs etc. I couldn't pass up fresh & delicious samosas from a very friendly stall holder and the rest of my group spread out to find their tasty treats. I also found an amazing souvenir - a China goblet (?) or sorts commemorating Prince William's birth with a great photo of Chuck & Di - just £10, in perfect condition. Yes, I am a sucker for Royal tat.

Greenwich Market is a cute indoor/outdoor marketplace in the heart of Greenwich. There are little local stalls peddling arts and crafts and other assorted wares. Plus many food joints serving up ready-to-eat lunches and drinks and snacks. Come on a chill day to stroll the plaza and get something to eat. Overall a charming place to visit!

Stopped by here while at Greenwich and it was a pretty great find. The front of the market carries a lot of speciality shops while the back carries all the food. The sides are lined with a lot of little shops. 1. Pizza Calzone - Absolutely delicious, honestly way better than anything you can get from the states. The star is really the crust because of its slightly crispy texture. However a lot of the ingredients ends up at the bottom of the calzone so it's not very proportional in flavor. I do love the cheese pull action though. 2. Hot Dog - Okay dish. It was a bit too meaty for me. Overall a pretty good experience here at Greenwich Market. Definitely recommend if you are in the area but I don't think it's a must for London.

The holy grail of unconventional souvenir shopping! No matter your interests, do not visit London without stopping by here. Greenwich was one of the bookend stops of the City Cruise boat tour along the Thames. The Market is a short 5-minute or so walk from the pier. It's a relatively small marketplace with a ton of wonderful stands and shops selling everything from art and antiques to jewelry and semi-precious gemstones to clothing and cuisines from a variety of countries. I saw stands selling Brazilian churros, "Asian" chicken wings and Chinese food, Middle Eastern dosas, 'Southern pork', East Indian street food, a couple of Italian stands, a couple more selling baked goods and one selling a delicious take on fish and chips ("Da Fish Ting" cod fritters are not to be missed!) There are also a few brick and mortar shops selling accessories, paintings and posters, shoes, housewares, beautiful decorative creations made of delicate colorful paper, and my personal favorite, sweet creamy delicious fresh made fudge. I thought I'd only spend a few minutes here, but there was just so much to see, do, and eat in this little tiny space. I'm also not into antiques, but I was able to find a crystal whiskey decanter and an antique 25-piece bone china tea set for way less than I'm willing to confess to. It was an absolute steal! Forget all of the junk that the 'traditional' souvenir shops are selling... this is the place to go if you want to bring back a truly unique piece of London.

I came to Greenwich Market for some food, but I expected it to be a lot larger. Though there wasn't as many choices as Borough Market or Camden Market, I still thought it was pretty cool. It wasn't crammed with people, so that was nice. I got the Panz Margherita from Panzerotto, and a 6-inch from The Sausage. Panz Margherita- Ultimately, this is a fried Calzone. Though it only had cheese and Margherita sauce, it was delicious! The dough was chewy and crispy, probably one of the best fried doughs I ever had. The cheese was melty and the tomato flavor came through. I loved this. The Sausage- Honestly, this was similar to an American hot dog, it didn't surprise me much. However, I usually dislike pickles, but pickles on hot dogs are now my favorite. The sauces were pretty good and was flavorful. Overall, I would come here again. That calzone!!!

I ended up in Greenwich on a whim and this was a short walk from the boat dock. I was immediately drawn in by the number of vendors. We have embarrasingly terrible farmers markets where I'm from, so this was very impressive. There were a bunch of interesting food vendors, which I made my way through. It turns out I didnt even see all of the good vendors, as there were more booths outside that I happened to miss. The for sale vendors seems to be a mix of etsy like booths. I did see a few cute items here and there but the prices were a bit ridiculous. Note: some vendors are cash only, so make sure you visit the machines before getting here. As far as restrooms are concerned, I don't remember seeing any of those either.

A breed between a food and flea market, I loved the small town vibes and the stores around. In my experience I was able to watch workers make fudge within the fudge shop right next to the market. One of the coolest experiences I've ever gotten to see. Lots of antiques and collectible items being sold - I bought a 1950s HMS lighter which I need to get fixed up, but I'm happy with the purchase.

09/12/17 Not far from Greenwich pier or the Maritime Museum is this swap meet. Some of the items are secondhand and some are new. What a plethora of wonderful items to look at and purchase. from food, to clothing, knick knacks and more. There was a variety of global foods to be had. The aromas wafting through the venue was divine. All of the sellers and merchants were kind and informative. No matter what you are looking for you are likely to find it here.

I absolutely LOVE Greenwich market. It's the perfect place to spend your weekend mornings. There are so many different vendors and you can walk around and see all their tasty creations. Whether you want something savory or sweet, you will definitely find it here. When I went here, we got some vegetarian gnocchi (with pesto and some cheese sauce) and a Portuguese dish that I don't quite remember the name of. Both were so good! We were able to sample some stuff before buying. The food was very filling so we couldn't even finish them. We also walked around and checked out some other vendors selling handmade soaps and lotions, and cute little trinkets. Coming to Greenwich market was an excellent way to spend our weekend morning!

Great unpretentious market place that has a mix of food and clothing/books/etc stands. I came here for lunch as I'm exploring the Greenwich area. I decided on a chicken burrito and a Jarritos Mandarin for about £10. You'll see a mix of tourist and students (there is a college within a block from here) walking about.

Greenwich Market is a huge highlight of Greenwich with an abundance of different food stalls and of course some homemade or repurposed Knicks and knacks. My favourite food stalls were the Brazilian Churros, Ruby Tuesdays gluten free baked goods (for when I had a celiac family member with me), the amazing dumpling place that is usually situated across from the churros (sorry can't remember the name) but they do amazingly good tempura prawns on a stick, pot stickers and pork dumplings that are as good as any other Chinese, the pancake place that makes the dutch poffertjes (wow!) and one stall I adore is when the lovely cheesemongers from Godminster would have their pop up cheese stall. Their chutneys are so good! During the week there is only a handful of stalls here so if you want the full experience be sure to come on a weekend, although be warned it is always packed! Although the lines for food look long they actually move very quickly so don't let that put you off. I have so many cool souvenirs or gifts I have bought for people from here. The most loved is probably the customised London Meantime beer bottle wall clock I gave my dad. Great local market!

Fab local market with interesting and unusual tchotchkies, tshirts, food, scarves, books, you-name-it. It's similar to Spitalfields, except that it's open Wednesday to Sunday and it's perhaps a little bit smaller. You can't possibly miss the smells of all this fresh food. Much of it is cooked right there on site. Ethiopian, Portuguese, Polish, Italian. OMG, I had to stop myself before I bought it all! And then, booths of books and tshirts and other stuff that is just beyond description. Some vendors do take credit cards, some do not. The real challenge here is finding a parking space nearby! One point off for not having any tables or chairs nearby - or if there were, I couldn't find them.

If you haven't been to Greenwich market for lunch then I highly recommend it. Firstly it's good value as you're not paying extortionate prices for service charge or food presentation and secondly its in a beautiful area itself next to Cutty Sark so it gives you plenty to do and see after eating and shopping in the market. The best thing about it is that's it is indoors too with its glass ceiling allowing natural light to pass through giving the place a lovely outdoor feel but without the worry of rain or windy conditions. So here is my review on what we ate: EAT: Hot flavours It's a Caribbean stall selling the usual jerk chicken and variety of curries. The portion are generous as they come filled to the rim of the box served with rice, salad and homemade coleslaw. The curries have been stewing for hours ahead of time for the flavours to release and for the meat and vegetables to soften before being cooled and put into portable containers, brought to the stall and reheated. Order the mango chicken curry if they have it. There was so much flavour from all ends of the spectrum, sweetness from the mango and savoury from all the different herbs and spices. It's very mild for those worried about spice. The chicken was beautifully tender after being stewed for hours in the fragrant curry. Lovely with rice and coleslaw added that creaminess to it to bring it all together. AVOID: Pimp my ramen We were so excited to finally get our hands on our first ramen burger. Sadly it wasn't as awesome as we thought it would be. Maybe we should have gone for the Filipino pulled pork which looked more flavoursome then the cheap bland burger patty we ordered. We couldn't taste any beef! The ramen patty was so flavourless too. They could have really chose a better brand of ramen that maybe had better MSG seasoning to cook it in? The cheese was still cold and not melted, egg was pre cooked so was cold as well. Disappointing and would have rather spend my money elsewhere. MAYBE EAT: Mammia Mia The problem with pre made risotto balls is that the outer layer will just keep getting crispier and crispier and the inside thicker and denser as it dries out outside. That was one of the slight problems here but it was still pretty good if you put that aside. We ordered the Spaghetti Bolognese risotto ball. It sure was crispy on the outside and the rice inside was still nice and sticky filled with stretchy melted mozzarella. It lacked depth and flavour though as the Bolognese tasted very generic and one noted. Could have done with more herbs and seasoning but still had a nice bite. AVOID: The Andes Empanadas We ordered the vegetable empanadas and regretted it immediately. It was overcooked creating a casing that was too dry and dense. It was more crunchy than crisp. It was a shame as the filling was tasty, filled with mozzarella and tomatoes. AVOID: Mediterranean Quiche stall We ordered a chicken and mushroom samosa from this stall but it was probably the most disappointing food of the day. The filo pastry didn't work being too thick and dry and the filling wasn't generous enough to provide moisture making it very hard to eat without a drink. It was all very bland inside, tasting like basic supermarket pie filling. EAT: Brazillian churros These churros were definitely a winner. They were freshly made, thick, crispy on the outside and fluffy in the inside. It is a lot more dense but only probably to hold the caramel creme or chocolate sauce or both if you like. As much as I love the gimmick of filling the inside of the churro with half chocolate and half caramel creme I do wish I could dip my churro with more of the delicious sauces. Too morish! EAT: Planet pancake Who would have thought simple mini pancakes drizzled with salted caramel and topped with flake pieces can taste so good! The pancakes are freshly made in front of you and are incredibly fluffy and spongy. You can choose any toppings you like from the selection to make it your own. So good! EAT: Coopie Coco Now if you you see this stall and they're selling something called "fresh coconut drops" then buy a piece! Small pieces of coconut spiced heavily with sugar, ginger and cinnamon. It had an addictive bite to it being crunchy and chewy, sweet with strong taste of both coconut and ginger. Favourite sweet dish of the day. DRINK: Greenwich Flavoured Coffee We chose coffee brewed with amaretto flavoured coffee beans and cinnamon coffee beans and it was incredibly good. I was quite skeptical at first if the flavoured coffee tasted like they smelt and they did. Of course the flavour was much more subtle but the coffee was smooth and rich with a lovely aftertaste too. On this trip I found the sweet dishes really surpass the savouries. We did miss a few stalls like the grilled cheese, Portuguese stews and fresh pasta so we might have been unlucky. But with the range of delicious sweet treats I'm glad to have saved an appetite to enjoy them all.

Come for the crafts (especially the handmade greeting cards), stay for the ethnic food. Find the Nude Espresso cart, there you will find the best Latte in London

Beautiful market studded with lively handmade art, global food, and enthusiastic vendors. Greenwich Market is truly a hole in the wall kind of market. Its nestled inside a passageway in between buildings and its very unassuming. I had a wonderful time visiting this market on the weekend. It just so happened to be a weekend and the market was bustling with all kinds of people. I went on a Saturday afternoon and ended up revisiting on Sunday as well. All of the local artists are incredibly friendly and charming. I tried many samples of local foods and ended up consuming a few snacks and hot coffee. I highly recommend the Jamaican ginger cake -- it's fantastic! The young vendors behind the stand were very friendly and talkative. We chatted for a bit and I decided on the ginger cake after taking a sample. The market has a great selection of desserts, fresh fruit juice, coffee, vegan and non vegan items. You will find many food trucks parked in the open area of the market as well. There are many displays of local art that you can purchase. Inside the market, you will find many galleries showcasing paintings, pottery, and botanical art. This is the place to visit when purchasing or deciding on gifts for loved ones. There are a few coffee houses located right outside the market as well. Red Door, Peyton & Bryne, etc. I definitely recommend visiting any of these cafes while browsing through London on a chilly day. Visit this market - you'll be in for a treat in a multitude of ways.

Great place to find food and a lovely assortment of weird stuff ranging from antiques to handcrafted products. My only regret was eating before I came here. But I got a neat little old brass compass!

Greenwich Market is a nice quaint little market. There are plenty of food vendors that will give you a free sample. They are all fantastic, so it makes choosing one very difficult. The little crafts vendors are also cool. The tie stall was my personal favorite.

I love this market. A must for when your in south London on a lovely hot day. Great strange of food stalls and random stuff.

It's almost impossible not to spend money here! Tourists: bring an extra bag, because you'll be filling it with the clothes, collectibles, and kitsch you pick up here. And the food! Several vendors have irresistible baked goods.

One of my favourite markets in London! Whether you're coming from the Greenwich Foot Tunnel (SO cool, by the way), or training in from the DLR (which is always great to ride for fun), you'll glad you made the trek out. The market is pretty cramped and very crowded, but it's just buckets of fun to explore. Most of the vendors sell great, interesting trinkets and gifts, even home goods. The food selection is generally great value for money and I always find it so hard to make a choice from all the delicious dishes! Some of my favourites so far have been: - Teriyaki-ya: try the pumpkin croquette, the sea bass bento, and hubs recommends the fried chicken and the chicken katsu curry - Block B's: delicious falafel that's full of vegetables and wonderfully moist falafels. A nice bonus is that after you've experienced this wonderful little market, you can head on to the beautiful spots of Greenwich like Greenwich Park, the conservatory, or catch a movie at the quaint Greenwich Picturehouse. So again, a trip well worth the trip eastward!

Obvious that this is a local place rather than for tourists, but we ran into it during a trip to see the Cutty Sark. Most of the stalls in the market are street food stalls with some grocery sales. The food smelled wonderful, and everyone stood around to eat. Interesting for a tourist to walk through, but not much else to see.

Great smaller market. Many good quality food vendors who love to hand out tastings to draw you in.

My boyfriend and I are from the US and instead of touring at the tourist spot in London, we decided to live like a local for a day. Going to a market makes it official! We stayed in Marriott by Canary Wharf and yelped the closest Market around. This happened to be 2 miles away from the hotel so we decided to walk there. And omg, it's the farthest walk I've ever done. We went through a port to an underground tunnel, and a park with another port. But we got there and right away we found spots to look for souvenirs for back home. There so many food spots to choose from and lots of things you can buy. I don't remember the spots we bought food from but we got empanada made in Portugal, I think some meatball made in Italy, fresh oysters, another Portuguese food, short ribs, and ramen burger. We had food session! And by far the most unforgettable one we ate was the Filipino Ramen Burger. The chef was also Filipino and very welcoming. He noticed right away we were kababayan. My boyfriend and I both agreed that if we live nearby we'd be 50 lbs heavier from eating that all day everyday. I'm just glad that I even tasted a food so good. When I think of ramen burger, I would think that the Ramen bun is crispy and not cooked at all. And that it would fall apart the moment you eat it and would taste bland. But nope, it was opposite everything. The bun was put together and soft enough to eat like a regular bread. The "Filipino sauce" was good, I couldn't guess what's in it. The pulled pork was so tender. Everything blended together and it works! The end of it all we had a beer and decided to take uber back to the hotel. Such a good day!

I would avoid this place on the weekends as it can be bumper-to-bumper with humans of all stripes vying for a spot in front of the stall you'd like to visit. I do, however, recommend a trip down on one of the weekdays (closed Mondays) to peruse the antiques, ceramic ware from Jerusalem, vegan cupcakes a la Brixton, and order a decent cup of joe from the local coffee cart without hordes of folk swarming around you. The market is ringed by various businesses--Spanish food stuffs store, local print makers shop, health food joint-also worth a look-see, if you're keen.

Markets, aaaaahhhh, I do love the handmade sweat of others on material objects. This particular weekday, I did my research before I ventured out, of course on Yelp! I was happy to find out different days of the week this market offers specific stalls aimed at food, crafts, bits and bobs. Loving crafts the most, I selected my day of the week and headed out. Do not arrive too early on a weekDAY, otherwise you might wait before the vendors are set up. Nice covered area to shop in the market with outlining shops to pop in and out. Greenwich is a easy walking town. Its a short tube ride on the newer Jubilee line or if you fancy a river ride, there are quicky boat rides from central London to Greenwich.

A fantastic, beautiful market. The range of food stalls are brilliant - it's always difficult to choose what to eat! If you're struggling to choose, I'd highly recommend the lamb and halloumi wrap. It's packed full of flavour and very filling. There are lots of unique, lovely gifts, jewelry, arts and craft stalls. Well worth a mooch. It's packed at the weekends though - try and get there before midday if you want space to walk around and look.

Ever been to the main section of Spittlefields market? You know how there are artisan goods that by and large seem the same stall after stall after stall? Greenwich market is pretty much the same. It's not that I've lost that loving feeling for markets, but it's that I have the sneaking suspicion that I've seen some of those market goods before. Greenwich market was recommended to me as a good place for vintage junk, one of my secret, or not so secret loves. I was thus disappointed to find Greenwich was much like every other market and street fair stands you see. Of course there were some unique stalls, but most seems cut and dry market craft. It might take some witch craft and Kraft macaroni and cheese to lend some spice to Greenwich. This is not to say that the market is bad, just that it's not spectacular. There was, however, a nice selection of organic foods for sale and for grazing. An interesting lotion lady too. She was not only composed of creamy paraffin, petroleum jelly and water, but she also sold all natural hydrating products. I'm not sure if the antiques market about 3 blocks away has anything to do with Greenwich market, the official market, but if it does, I'd up this rating a star. If not, it remains and standard market fare of 3 baked to golden brown stars..

I've been a fan of Greenwich Market for years, and while I don't get there often any more, it was great to go back on a Saturday and have a good look around. I've been going there since around 2001, when I lived in the area, and there have been a lot of changes since then. The covered part of the market used to have a fair few food things to take away for later, but now it's all pretty much to be had now. The shops around the outside of the market aren't very exciting - I used to frequent one that made chocolates, and another that did paper cuts - but they're inoffensive. The traders in general though are pretty much the same as they've always been, and similar to what you'd find at other large London markets - jewellery, knit goods, art work. Nothing took my fancy but I still enjoyed window shopping. There was a new-to-me area, which according to the signage opened up in April 2016, which was full of street food places. Probably 10-15 different things to eat (spoilt for choice!). I decided to get some pumpkin korroke from the Japanese place... and they were out. This is typical in Nickie-land, so after I pouted for a while, I went and had some Thai green chicken curry, and it was really delicious. My other half had a cuban sandwich, which was good but we're spoiled by Project Sandwich (https://www.yelp.co.uk/biz/project-sandwich-london). I was also miffed that the place with the Cubans was out of the soda I wanted (Mexican cola is delicious, and I guess everyone else thought so, too!). Greenwich Market is definitely a good place to wander around for half an hour, and with the other markets, shops, museums and the Park, Greenwich is overall a great place to spend a Saturday afternoon.

Getting to Greenwich is an experience in itself. Taking the boat ride from Westminster and cruising the Thames to get access to the attractive and historic building on either sides of the bank is wise. Its about a 20 minute cruise to Greenwich and you get humoured with cockney jargons and intelligence. At the market which is thankfully indoors, various handmade goods from around the world are sold under good prices. Mostly called boutique stalls they have art work, wood work, leather goods, food, textiles, furniture, accessories and much more. The uniqueness is that this is not retail, so one off presents for Christmas can be bought this season. During the festive season they are open everyday from the 10-24th Dec, 10am-5.30pm and you can savour some food while shopping.

I had been looking forward to returning to Greenwich Market after an absence of about seven years. When I last went I had found plenty to turn my head. Since then, I have discovered small individual markets tucked behind streets, and large ones like Spitalfields. So I found Greenwich Market to be a little bit smaller than I was hoping for, and it did not have the range or variety that I have come to expect from other markets. Still, there is plenty to recommend it. As well as stalls selling the typical arts and crafts, there were a few selling military regalia and army and navy goods. I guess this is a nod to Greenwich's rich past of seafaring and army bases. I also found a stall selling old cameras - some dating back to the 19th Century. My dad found a stall selling old prints of film posters. A couple of deals and a bit of haggling later, he came away happily with some good quality prints. After scouring the stalls, I turned my attention to the food. While there are not a large amount of food stalls, they are well represented - Turkish, Japanese, Mexican, Argentinian. I had a spicy open chicken hot sandwich from the Argentinian stand which was a perfectly seasoned, huge portioned feast - all for £4.50. My dad had a hot sandwich from the Hog Roast stand. The pork here is farmed from Essex - all free range. The owner also sold large pork pies. My dad declared his sandwich to be one of the tastiest that he has had in a long time - the meat was succulent, and he was very pleased with the extra bit of crackling slipped in. Greenwich Market is a perfect size if you get over whelmed by the sprawling qualities of Spitalfields. Its definitely worth a peek.

This is my fav london market especially the vintage dresses old photos 70's retro kitchen stuff! (wish i bought that pinapple) And a mix of amazing everything! I love it more then life! And the food OH THE FOOD! just go there trust me!

My only complaint is that it isn't bigger. A colorful delight for the eyes, a plethora of smells for the nose, and so many things happening that you can't help but hear and touch as well. Greenwich is a bit of a forgotten corner of the Old city, but it's worth your time. This market is one of the centerpieces of a great spot.

I enjoyed this place. It has all sorts of different vendors selling really cool things. The antiques are cool and the handmade stuff they have there is 1 of a kind of course. There was a guy there selling original film footage from Hollywood films that he makes into coasters, when I say original, it is actually pieces of the film they recorded it on.... It is very close to the boat, so take the walk

Bric-a-brac, crowded, food, drink, arts & crafts..on my doorstep. This is a busy and small market in terms of size and scale. I haven't actually found anything here in years that made me part with my money but I still like squeezing in every now and again. Sometimes the stalls change position and there are lots of eateries surrounding the market itself. Don't forget, this is historic Greenwich so much to see in the area.

Wonder of wonders, this market has it all! Sure there are crafts to buy and even a barber in case you need a trim, but the real star at Greenwich market is the food. Indian, Chinese, paella, Ethiopian, Italian, and so much more. If you have a craving for a particular kind of food, odds are you can find it here. Best thing is that if you come with a group of people, everyone can eat a different cuisine and be happy with it. Prices are pretty good, with most dishes between £5 and £8. There really isn't much seating so hopefully you won't mind standing and eating. I went to the roastery right by the northern entrance and it was yum! The melted cheese on top of the roast beef was heavenly in my mouth. I can't wait to go back and try the lamb and halloumi wrap (my friend's favorite)!

I love Greenwich market. Accessible by both the river Thames and road (although I wouldn't suggest trying to park a car nearby) it is, in my opinion, the jewel in Greenwich's crown. Yes, within Greenwich there is the Royal observatory, Greenwich park, the National Maritime museum, Cutty Sark, Trinity College, the Queens House... Many such places, but for me, my favourite place in Greenwich is the market. Small but perfectly formed, Greenwich market contains many stalls of varying foods, art, antiques, jewellery, every form of clothing, books, furniture... Many many more things available. With independent boutiques lining two sides of this rectangular indoor marketplace, you'll want to see everything on offer and the layout assists in this. Quite simply, there is a central passageway and an aisle on each side with the stalls themselves practically forming a grid making it straightforward and convenient to weave your way along, able to browse everything and feeling confident that you haven't missed anything. Also, there are two pubs in opposing corners that back on to the market. Great for gift buying as well as finding nice things for yourself and equally as pleasing when one gets hungry. From Sushi to burgers to fairy cakes. Not many markets have two separate stalls that can offer you different styles of goat curry either but Greenwich usually does - and they're both delightful. The best days to visit are Fridays (largely antiques) and Saturdays (everything but antiques) and it will be busy and bustling but the market is open on some other days too albeit reduced in size. See you there, Ian

Love this historic market in Greenwich. Lots of interesting arts and crafts stall to stroll around, and plenty of ethnic foods to try, from about £6, all freshly cooked and tasty. Some original items too - for instance, ramen burgers - instead of using bread rolls put it between ramen - with egg, cucumber and salad with either beef, pulled pork or teriyaki chicken or vegetarian burgers with Moroccan patty and melted cheese, in between the ramen. Different.

This is one of my favourite markets in the greater London area. The first time I was here was in 2009 and was fascinated by the wonderful array of handmade craft. I bought quite a large number of unique gifts for friends and family back at home, and also a leather jacket for myself. To this day, I still thank my local friends for having introduced me to this market, given that this would not have been on the radar had it not been for them. Now, as we are well in to 2014, this market remains to be my favourite - and now mostly thanks to the wonderful and ultra delicious ethnic food available. Their weekend stalls are different from their weekdays so I do recommend that you check the schedules if you are interested in their individual listings: http://www.greenwichmarketlondon.com/food-and-drink/category/market-food My favourite stands so far have been: - The Red Cow Carvery with the delicious giant pieces of beef sizzling on a pan, ready to be carved up and placed into a sandwich with melted cheddar drizzling across - The Thai Kitchen with a small selection of curries and stirfries and padthai. Choose any one or two combo for your takaway box. Our favourite is the green curry chickens, but their pad thai isn't too bad either - Churros - freshly deep fried covered with cinnamon and sugar, and filled with dulce de leche and/or chocolate sauce - they really should consider nutella ;) - Flavoured coffee beans, with all kinda of flavoured beans and unique teas for taking home. Or, if you prefer just get their ready made coffee on the spot too. Although Saturday is the busiest, I think they have the best stalls for a variety of foods (what to choose!). Thank Japanese, Korean, Indian, Portugese, Italian, American, and so and on and on. Get out at the Cutty Sark station, walk around the pier, the university, and then stop by the market. Trust me, it's worth your time.

Not the best market in London by any means but surrounded by a wealth of history, a park, good pubs/breweries and some stalls worth trying, it's definitely worth a visit one Sunday. *NOTE* Went again recently and went to Pimp my Ramen stall. Found in Greenwich Market this is one of those stalls and ideas that sounds good in principle but honestly...ramen for a bun with a burger (and egg!) is not my idea of a good idea. Sorry to say I won't be eating there again. I doubt it's the cooking fault as I just don't personally see the appeal in getting it.

Hahaha, I was clicking to write this review and had started it in my head already, and it was going to go, "Best market in London, hands down." So yes, ditto that remark. And hey, I've been to almost all of them! I loved Greenwich because it was of an easily manageable size but still large enough to occupy half of a day. I also loved it because it had an excellent mixture of vendors. I'd say there are about 10 food vendors (holy crap, freshly made churros filled with caramel and chocolate), a handful of antique/vintage vendors, and then an impressive combination of handmade things, from frames to hair clips to art to, of course, jewelry (but not too much, and not all beads). I saw THREE things at this market that I'd never seen before. !!! And not a single vendor with junk or obviously resale stuff. The permanent stores surrounding the market (both inside and on nearby streets) are also pretty cute, and I was a big fan of the clothes stores, which were in my price range (read: cheap) but not junky and hip but not too high street-ish. I'd also recommend this market (to locals and visitors) because it's, of course, close to London, but somehow far enough away that it feels almost like a day trip. Take the RiverBus (not cruise) for £4 on your Oyster and add in a scenic ride there. Oh! And their visitor center is actually useful! They have four little maps of suggested walking tours around the area, along with a huge selection of general London & attraction maps, brochures, ect. I'd recommend this stop first because truthfully, if you're not entire sure where you're going, the market would be easy to miss. It's essentially the inner portion of a city block and has entrances in the middle of the streets of that block. Surely, though, anyone could point you in the right direction.

Small and understated but with really unique and cool items. The food selection is also really good- the Beef with melted cheddar sandwich, Morgan's coffee wagon, paella...yum. The stores there are also less crowded and not as nuts as Notting Hill, Camden etc. Definitely worth a visit. Closest Tube is Cutty Sark...don't let your friends drag you to Greenwich...!

If you have no plans for a sunday morning - all you need is this... Jump on the DLR to greenwich market - bring a tenner with you. Eat Sausages! Well, just about! I love greenwich market for the food and the whole undercover market experience, full of hand made trinkets and bits and bobs - and not a internet cafe in sight - although there is a starbucks around the corner... Anyway, once you've had a look around the historic market town feel thats a stonesthrow from the city - you'll get hungry - and thats why I love greenwich market - the food. Theres a great selection of fresh high quality food prepared right in front of you - especially the specialist hot dogs (best i've ever had) and the potatoes with warm melted cheese - done on a grill right in front of you! Great for tourists - even better if you live there!

Best London area market, hands down. I lived in and around London for 12 years. I now live in San Diego. In the States, we Yanks refer to these as Farmer's Markets. There are many in San Diego (where I live now), but none can hold a candle to the Greenwich Market. In fact they aren't even close to comparing. When I lived in London I was located on King William Walk by the park entrance. So i was a hop, skip and a jump away from the Market. I would go almost every weekend to buy goods. This place is amazing, and has it all. They have antique dealers, lots of them. I bought a nice little desk from the 1870s, as well as an electric comb from the 1950s, as a silly novelty to give to my hair-obsessed friend as a gag gift. I mean, they have all sorts of interesting and unique antiques here, and the dealers are all very friendly and knowledgeable. AND THE FOOD. There is a vendor that sells the most amazing blocks of feta, wonderful olives, stuffed vine leaves, and so much more. You can also get nice artesian breads at another stand, and there is much, much more. The best tea I EVER HAD was sold from this market by two guys named Wihlborb and Axander. They had a black tea with chili and coconut in it, and a green rhubarb tea. After moving back to California, I have not been able to find these combinations anywhere! I found their old business card in a box of my stuff, and tried looking them up online with much excitement, but their website doesn't exist. If anyone knows who these guys are, and if they are still selling tea, please let me know how to find them so I can place some orders. This market also sells beautiful clothing, and very stylish clothing too. I miss this market so much, and every market I have gone to in America is total crap compared to this one. As for other London-area markets, I liked this one the most because it wasn't too big, yet it was just big enough to offer a great variety of things.

I like to visit Greenwich market on a Thursday, antiques, collectables and less buggy pushers. Chiildren and markets are not a great mix in my opinion as the child quickly gets bored and screams in frustration - understandable but distracting. The market is filled with traders offering reasonably priced items. There is a decent selection of surrounding shops selling everything from vintage clothing through to games ad books. The heath food shop is amazing and the parking possible
