Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

- mou5eHampshire, UK315 contributionsAlways interesting to mooch around in Covent Garden. Good cafés and shops, accessible from the underground and a great place to spend a lot or a little!Written 4 February 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- philipLondon, UK177 contributionsWe love borough market, the food you can buy is from all over the world. You can pig out on the free tasting, then there’s eat in or takeaway restaurants with food from every continent. there’s bakers & cake stalls, fruit, veg, exotic food, butchers with meats from far away places. We always go & the try before you buy on the market, then there’s no surprises & no wasting money. We go at least once a month & Saturdays is a great day to visit. You catch the tube or bus to London Bridge tube station & you follow the crowds to the market. Keep wallets & purses in a safe place in your clothing & not back pocket, as there’s dippers aka pick pockets any where there’s large crowds. I’ve been going for years I’ve had nothing stollen, but hey cities are cities & along with the nice things, there’s a few un nice people on the take, don’t make it easy for them & enjoy a few hours of free pleasure on borough market. I’ll be back.Written 5 February 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.

- Tkommy102 contributionsFor a department store with so many luxury brands (which I can’t afford), the underground floor sells pretty nice souvenirs at reasonable prices. Even for people who do not have much money to spend, I recommend them to at least go to the underground floor to have a look.Written 9 January 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- catkid3Victoria, Australia83 contributionsBedknobs and Broomsticks says it best: "Anything and everything a chap can unload is sold off the barrow in Portobello Road."
The market is MUCH larger than we initially thought, and as we were on a time crunch we didn't get to see all of it, but you could easily spend 3-4 hours exploring; we visited on a Saturday, which is the busiest day of the week and best time to see everything. Some items were overpriced and some stalls were full of rubbish, but that's to be expected at any market. We found some great bargains and came away satisfied.
If you're not a fan of giant crowds, try to get here when the market opens at 9 and start making your way through; the large crowds didn't really start to form until after 10:30-11am. There are a couple of public toilets available that are free to use and various ATMs scattered around, though there were always big queues for these, so only use if desperately needed. There are signs everywhere warning of pickpockets, so make sure you've always got a grip on your bag and keep your phone/wallet away when not needed!Written 30 November 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

The Dosa did not disappoint at Indi-go Rasoi, neither did the Chocolate, caramel and hazlenut cookies from the Baklava stall, or the gluten free/vegan bakes at Lola's Bakery. I'll be visiting again for sure!Written 30 January 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- KulHKJDenham, UK1,202 contributionsA very enjoyable visit to Greenwich. We were there for the day and there was plenty to do in the area. There are several entrances to the market and whilst it is not very big. There was a good choice of stalls and with a special Dodd area offered really nice fresh food stalls. It is well worth a visit if you are in the area.Written 5 February 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- pretty-in-pink11UK16 contributionsLovely to browse the flower stalls but it does get very busy! Be prepared for crowds.
I found the plants great value for money but the cut fresh flowers are expensive in my opinion.Written 13 November 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews. - MuseumanLondon, UK18 contributionsSince the death of Queen Elizabeth II, The Queen's Gallery has become a more poignant place. A surprising exhibition that continues there is "Japan: Courts and Culture". The British Royal Family has been collecting Japanese works of art for a long time. There has also been an occasional kinship between these two island nations, although their shared history hasn’t always been happy. As few of those who fought in the Second World War are still living, attention can revert to the more productive partnership of the First World War. On that occasion Japan was an ally of the UK in the war against Germany.
Despite one or two omissions, the Royal Collection has ended up with a glorious diversity of Japan’s greatest aesthetic triumphs. From the huge screens that provided privacy and colour in drab and draughty samurai castles, to the tiniest netsuke toggles, the full spectrum of Japanese art is on display. Among the less obvious elements, presumably because they were low-budget disposable merchandise, are the ukiyo-e woodblock prints that fascinated the likes of Van Gogh and Monet.
Japan: Courts and Culture is an assemblage with a regal flavour. As with the concept of monarchy itself, this exhibition takes the long view – and there is no country with a longer dynastic history than Japan.Written 9 October 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Much less rammed that the much bigger Borough market, much easier to find a seat and have a beer.
Worth a visit.Written 29 January 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

It’s a definite bosh and I’ll be back to try the food.Written 14 January 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- 14kayo12 contributionsThird visit here yesterday. We like the industrial look of the Power Station and each time we return more shops are open. We sat at the bar very relaxing and enjoyed drinks mixed by Flo. Enjoyable evening we'll be back.
Only downside I would like to see hooks under bar for handbags.Written 5 February 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
