this is a lovely little market, situated just a short walk away from the larger (& more popular broadway market). it is small but perfectly formed with a variety of stalls, not just food, which is nice to see. in actual fact there is probably about 4-5 food vendors plus some a drink vendor or two, and the rest of the stalls (maybe 20 or so?) are made up of little independent businesses selling various wares. an excellent place to look for unique gifts.
the quality of the food vendors is really high, so it makes it difficult to choose where to go! i opted for lucky chip on my visit because i had read so much about them and hadn't had the chance to check them out. i have had so many meat burgers in the last six months as london is having this ridiculous (good) burger revolution, so i forced myself to try the veggie burger for a chance of scene. i know you should get the meat burgers on a menu when that is what they are known for, but the veggie burger was seriously good and i really didn't regret my choice. now i look forward to trying their beef burger at a future date. my boyfriend and i also shared a portion of their fries - they were very tasty. lucky chip is one of the pricier burger offerings in london (veggie burger + fries = £10.50) but good quality, so it's a price i am willing to pay.
my boyfriend opted for a pimped up cheese toastie from morty & bob's gourmet grilled cheese, who i understand are new vendors at netil market. it looked delicious and he was super pleased with it. i like that it came with two little pickles too.
there are lots of seating areas scattered around, and even though it was busy when we visited, we managed to get a seat right away. the girl from lucky chip was even providing waitress service with her orders, which was a nice touch! there is also lots of outside heaters so even when it's a bit nippy out, you can hope to reclaim some worth.
finally, netil market is dog friendly, hurrah! being outside you might expect this, but places like borough market do not welcome dogs, so it is a point to note. not only are they dog friendly, there is even a stall which is dedicated to our lovely pets - they are well worth checking out for their goodies.
