With many of the city's more famous markets either being increasingly geared towards tourists (Portobello Road, Camden) or infested with ultra-chic urbanites (Spitalfields, Brick Lane), it's comforting to know that the Walthamstow Market still manages to retain a sense of community spirit. The longest daily street market in Europe, it stretches from Cleveland Park Avenue right to Pretoria Avenue,  and is known to offer some of the best bargains in town; whether you're looking for vintage clothes, fruits and vegetables, home appliances, fabrics or even dog food! There is a farmer's market held every Sunday on Walthamstow High Street, next to the mall and Town's square, from 10a to 2p. Although some shops may accept credit cards, don't forget to carry cash when you visit the Walthamstow Market.
