Herne Hill Market is a weekly Sunday street market that sets up outside Herne Hill station in south London, on the Lambeth and Southwark border. Running since 2012, it has become a fixture of the local weekend, drawing shoppers from across south London and beyond. Free to wander, it gathers more than fifty traders selling local food, fresh produce, hot street food, crafts, vintage finds and community stalls. The mix of artisan stalls and a relaxed neighbourhood crowd has earned it a Time Out Love London award, and it pairs naturally with a stroll up to nearby Brockwell Park.

Opening times

Herne Hill Market runs every Sunday from 10am to 4pm. It is a weekly market rather than a daily one, so Sunday is the only day to catch it. Arrive late morning to see the stalls at their fullest, or come earlier for a quieter browse and first pick of the produce.

What's on the stalls

More than fifty traders sell locally produced food and crafts sourced from within roughly 100 miles of the market. Expect fresh produce, artisan food and hot street food alongside vintage clothing, records, jewellery, ceramics and hand made crafts. Community stalls round out the mix, giving the market a neighbourhood feel rather than a tourist focus.

Around the market / getting there

The market sets up on Railton Road right outside Herne Hill station, which is served by both National Rail and the Thameslink line, making it an easy trip from central London. The surrounding streets are full of independent cafes and shops in the heart of Herne Hill. Combine a visit with a walk to Brockwell Park, a short stroll away, for green space and views over the city.
