Maltby Street Market, Ropewalk, Bermondsey SE1
9-4pm Saturdays
11-4pm Sundays
Ropewalk is situated behind Tower Bridge Rd, each authentic market stall establishment with its own unique stamp, under the brick arches and warehouses of Bermondsey.
Spend a weekend taking a lazy morning stroll, loiter from arch to arch, taking in the tastes and smells galore. Recently launched Sunday market means more trading hours and more specially sourced traders.
There is an impressive array of real gourmet food stalls combining high quality produce with lively dining and drinks. Perch yourself on the reclaimed antique chairs amongst the baths and barrels where this buzzing characteristic neighbourhood comes alive.
