Maltby Street Market

★ 4.6 (4,770)Free

Maltby Street Market fills a set of railway arches a short walk from London Bridge with a tight cluster of food stalls, bars, and cafés, and reviewers say the range is more about quality than quantity, the Cuban and duck stands both come recommended as standout bites. It pairs naturally with a stroll along nearby Bermondsey Street's own bars and cafés, making for an easy, grazing-style early evening out rather than a sit-down meal. With free entry, no booking required, and a 4.6 rating from nearly 4,800 reviews, it's an easy, low-commitment stop for anyone wanting a taste of London's street-food scene without planning ahead.

What people say

"A bit smaller than I thought it’d be but with some quality options for street food! We tried the Cuban and the duck stands and they were both delicious! We also headed into a bar for a beer and some live music which was so nice! I definitely recommend checking out if you’re in the area or exploring the south bank area."
