I just got my first delivery from Marcus, he offers friendly and personal services. The site offers things you definitely won't get it from supermarket and direct from the producers. Definitely worth giving it a go. read more

It's huge underground area full of vintage shops! The prices were a little too pricey for me, but the best part was the food! There's a whole street food market in that area that serves all kinds of foods, drinks, and desserts. This was where I had the best mango sticky rice I've had in a long time! Strongly recommend checking this place out!

While there still is some of the fashion that made this market famous, and one or two of the old timers stalls, most of the market is shoddy stuff, second rate and tawdry.

Nearly all my clothes, bags, make up and even some of my household items have come from Roman Road market. Due to them being so cheap but such good quality. My favourite stalls are the make up stall which stocks brand name make up at low prices. The designer clothes stall which stocks all designer clothes that are left over stock at heavily reduced prices, and the argos returns stall which can get hold of pretty much anything you want from the argos catalogue. Open 3 days a week, the only reason you would need to go anywhere other than Roman Road market is to do your food shopping but dont forget to buy your fresh fruit and veg whilst you are there!

Generally I'm only in this area if I'm coming back from town and I can't be bothered to walk home from the station nearest to my house. I'll splash out on a cab from here instead (it's my little £5 luxury every now and again). The farmers market is right next to Blackheath station in the car park. The usual suspects are here. So the fresh fruit and veg, the organic sausages. All the typical stuff. But then there's the bakers and cupcakeries and I think that's where the place comes into its own. They're lovely. The stuff they sell is great, and it's fun to walk around. You wouldn't spend more than an hour here, but if you're in the area, it's a good place to drop into before strolling to Greenwich for Sunday lunch.

The markets location is actually Sclater Street, but it links onto the truly bizarre Sunday Brick Lane market scene. The bowls are crammed with fruit. Whether it is apples, lemons or plums, you can get a carrier bag full with fruit for less than a fiver. It is the perfect stop if you are serious about achieving your five a day. They had huge grapefruits last week, three for £1 and I didn't get them. GUTTED! The whole scene on a Sunday around Brick Lane is a melee of urban randomness. It encapsulates the heart of East London by ensnaring so many cultures and styles within a few packed London streets. This is a must see area for tourists and locals alike.
It's quite unfair for me to be reviewing the 'Farmers Market' as I was there on a Saturday when…read morereally the Farmer's Market take place on a Sunday. It was pretty much dead around 3pm on a Saturday. Most of the stalls had already shut or was beginning to shut so we didn't get to see the full picture. But we were pretty glad to get out of the crowd of Broadway Market and actually find a place to sit down with food that actually attracted our eye And that was when we discovered The Frenchie and Mr Musubi. I also think I spotted Bad Brownie on the corner too along with a Spanish Paella stall and a few others I can't really recall. As The Frenchie is too awesome to be missed I have created a separate detailed review here: http://www.yelp.co.uk/biz/the-frenchie-london-3?hrid=gKCsmhJcrNc8ihLHE-Vpnw I can imagine the place to be busier early in the day. It was nice little area when it wasn't so crowded as tables and seats were available for seat down. However I can imagine it to be too small of a place to even get around if it got any busier as it was just a playground of a school. Would love to see what the Farmer's market look like though. Mr Musubi although looked great was sadly quite disappointing. They specialised in onigiris with three different filling, salmon, beef and a vegetarian variety. The ones we received were already pre-molded and was just seared with a flame torched to hold things together and for a crispy edge finish. However I found the rice too hard, cooked with too little water which really ruin the fluffy stick onigiris I'm used to, It could have just been a bad day for them. Still it was a refreshing alternative to all the other burger street vendors. I would suggest you pop your head in if you are in the Broadway market area and then maybe Netil market next door for a more busier street food scene.

The modest pricing plus the choice make this a great resource for locals. There are stalls selling pies (sweet and savoury), meats of various types, cheeses galore, sausages to die for . . . and much else besides. Being a farmer's market seasonality is the key. It's a pleasant change from the stress of the over-subscribed Borough market - full of sample tasting oiks who just crowd the place without buying anything that isn't ready made for fear that they may challenge their plastc world view by actually cooking something with taste and flavour . . . . If you like good quality food, want to know more about where real good food comes from, how and why it is the way it is and how to cook using real ingredients then go to your local farmer's market. With Bermondsey Farmer's Market you will be spoiled for choice.

Like most mini farmers markets, try to get there early as all the best food goes quickly to eager locals and their Channel shopping trollies. Even though there are only between 12 and 15 stalls, there's a nice choice of meat, fish and vegetables, all organic and all from local producers. I particularly like the green leaves stall for just-cut watercress, spinach and rocket. They taste so much better than organic packaged produce from the supermarket and have a much longer life span. There's a good fresh herb stall too and if you fancy growing your own pak choi, or chili plant you can find them here. I had my first turkey and cranberry sandwich of the year and it was so good, it left me wondering why we don't eat that ugly old bird all year round. It came from a local farm and the farmer and his daughter were serving together so it's great to know that I was contributing to a small business rather than a huge faceless corporation. The ready made food is expensive though, so don't be expecting to find any market bargains here. I remember when 'free-range', 'organic' and 'GM free' were the new foodie buzz words, now it's what I've come to expect and I think everyone should have the option of eating well so I think it's a real shame that markets like this also come with a very high price tag.

My boyfriend heard that there was a Brazilian food truck there selling genius Pastel, which is like a tasty hot pocket of pastry, deep fried and filled with delicious meats and cheese, so we ventured out to the Sunday market to find it. This place is genuine South London, proper Londoners going about their business with their families, not yuppies and hipster tourists with massive SLRs. It is completely real and not gentrified and homogenous. We rubbed shoulders with geezers and Del Boys and just people looking for some good jerk chicken. The place is huge with hundreds of stalls selling everything from car boot sale crap, to iPhone cases and flat screen TVs. We passed a pop up auction block with guys selling TVs and sound systems to a baying audience. Looks.... uh legal. Everything looked vaguely like it had fallen off the back of a truck, but if you are in need of a TV and have no morals, it's the place to go. There's a lot of food stalls selling some tasty stuff and not the usual fare you are getting at London markets these days. You can get a rack of ribs for 7 quid or a whole roast chicken. How about a fish head or some Jamaican stew? We stuck with the Brazilian Pastel and grabbed a caramel churro to go. I loved this place, it's a bit dodgy and a bit sketch but if you are sick of the tourists and the too-cool-for-school hipsters, this is a genuine slice of London. A fantastic day out.
