Bermondsey Farmers' Market
Bermondsey Farmers' Market fills Bermondsey Square in Southwark every Saturday morning, run by London Farmers' Markets. It is a proper producer market rather than a tourist stall row: growers, butchers, bakers and small food makers bring fresh, seasonal goods straight from their own farms. Everything sold is grown or made within 100 miles of the M25, so the line-up shifts with the season and you talk to the people who actually produced what you buy. It sits a short walk from Tower Bridge and the antiques market that made Bermondsey Square famous, making a relaxed weekend food stop in this corner of south-east London.
Opening times
The market runs every Saturday from 10:00 to 14:00 in Bermondsey Square. It is a weekly fixture and trades through the year, rain or shine. Arrive earlier in the morning for the fullest choice of produce, as popular seasonal items can sell out before the 2pm close.
What's on the stalls
Expect around 25 stalls of meat, poultry, game, vegetables, fruit, juices, salads and herbs, alongside bakers, cheese makers and other small food producers. All goods come from farms within 100 miles of the M25, drawn from counties such as Kent, Hertfordshire, Lincolnshire and Somerset. The selection is seasonal, so what is on the tables changes through the year, and you can ask the producers directly about how things are grown or made.
