Covent Garden Night Market

Both Stephen and I were really excited to read about this and went along last night to check it out. There were of course the predictable hordes of people and tourists but this didn’t put us off, we both used to work there until very recently so were used to this. What was really disappointing though was the lack of stalls. I’d read in various publications that there were 60 something stalls there but last night there were maybe 10-15. Not sure if this is because there was also a Children’s Week event happening but it was a shame, these stalls were all squashed into one small section of the market too making it even more over-crowded.

There were different stalls to those at Borough Market which was good and we did manage to find some uncooked chorizo which, oddly, we struggle to find but otherwise, I’m not sure if I’d go rushing back.

    It’s a shame to hear the market wasn’t as good as you were expecting.

    I think I’m going to be in town this Thursday anyway so may go along and see if there are any more stalls out. Some friends of ours bought some great sausage from the same place the chorizo came from and I’m kicking myself that I didn’t get some too.
