The Borough Market Book

The Borough Market Book

From London’s “best kept secrets” to being voted “the best market in Britain” by Observer Food Monthly magazine, Borough’s Market’s renaissance has been a fascinating journey of rediscovery.

Known today as bustling retail food market that prides itself on its quality and diversity of produce, for much of a last century the market has known better for its thriving wholesale fruit and vegetable trade.

For over a thousand years a market has been present here on the south side of London Bridge in the Borough Southwark, providing sustenance for Londoners and citizens of the southeast of England, and a backdrop of London’s most colourful history.

The Borough Market Book celebrates what can be achieved when people, place and politics collaborate to bring to market the highest standards and raise a clarion call for markets throughout Britain.
