Introduction
Easter in London means longer days, spring produce and some of the best food markets in the world coming into their own. Whether you're after artisan Easter eggs, hot street food or a family day out, the capital's top markets deliver. This guide covers the best London food markets to visit over the Easter weekend—with opening times, what to try and how to make the most of your visit.
Why London's Food Markets Are Perfect at Easter
London's food markets are ideal at Easter for three reasons. First, many stay open over the bank holiday with special Easter trading hours and events. Second, spring brings new-season produce, from British asparagus to fresh herbs and lighter dishes. Third, markets such as Borough, Camden and Greenwich offer a mix of shopping and eating that suits couples, friends and families. You can pick up treats for an Easter meal, grab lunch from a stall, or simply wander and graze—all in the open air and without booking.

Camden Market: Street Food and Global Flavours
Camden Market is one of London's biggest and busiest street food destinations. Over Easter, the mix of West Yard, North Yard and the Stables Market gives you everything from Caribbean fried chicken and Middle Eastern falafel to sushi, halloumi fries and loaded chips. Favourites include Basta for falafel and grills, Dragon Tenders for Caribbean-style chicken, and The Patate for French-style beef in brioche. Save room for liquid nitrogen ice cream or waffles. Vegetarian and vegan options are easy to find. Camden is open daily; Easter weekend is busy, so go early or on Easter Monday for a slightly quieter visit.

Greenwich Market and Cutty Sark: Family Easter Fun
Greenwich Market runs a dedicated Easter programme with workshops, face painting and trader Easter egg competitions—ideal for families. The market’s mix of crafts, gifts and food stalls sits alongside the Cutty Sark and the Thames. The Cutty Sark Street Food Market (often open from late March) runs Friday–Sunday with global hot food. Combine a market visit with the Maritime Museum or a walk through Greenwich Park for a full day out. Check Greenwich Market’s website for exact Easter dates and workshop bookings.
