Brixton Market

Famous for its amazing selection of fresh fruits and vegetables, especially those of an exotic nature, Brixton Market is one of the most colorful markets in London. The market started along Electric Avenue (made famous by Eddy Grant's hit song of the same name) in the 1870s, but now encompasses most of the surrounding streets. A large range of African objects and Caribbean food are here for the taking, in addition to a choice of hardware supplies, new clothes, music, all kinds of food and bric-à-brac. On Sundays, there's an art market in place of the usual stalls, and organic produce is available on Monday, Tuesday and Saturday. A must-visit market for the plethora of items that you can buy here!
