Broadway Market
The borough of Hackney has become synonymous with a lip smacking foodie scene, homegrown brands, and the hipster set—i.e London's equivalent of contemporary Brooklyn. At its epicenter is this year-round Saturday street market (open 9 a.m. – 5 p.m.), crammed into a little East End street between Regent’s Canal and the green of London Fields. Come here for atmosphere and people watching: By the week’s end the market fills with stylish Londoners picking among the smorgasbord of international street food on offer.
