Portobello Road Market

Portobello Road market is one of the most famous markets in the world, internationally recognised for its second-hand and antiques sections. Notting Hill’s quaint and idyllic streets make a fantastic tourist trail – even as Londoners we love the walk from Notting Hill Tube Station down to Portobello Road Market – and there are some fantastic shops and boutiques along the way. The market can be separated into three parts. At the Nottinghill end you’ll find antique stalls and shops selling everything from jewellery to home artefacts. There are also quite a few old and new art shops.

Further down Portobello Road you’ll find plenty of traditional street market stalls selling food, fruit & veg, clothing and fast eats. The market is always buzzling and vibey. At the North end of Portobello Road you’ll find plenty of vintage and retro stalls, women’s jumble style stalls where you can pick up garments for a fiver, second hand bric a brac & furniture.

The market closes early on Thursdays, at 1pm, and stays open late on Saturdays (main market day), until 7pm.
