Maltby Street Market | London's hidden gem!

One of the many things that I love about London is that there is always something new to discover. It is easy to feel overwhelmed however. With a city that offers so much, sometimes going somewhere that you know and are familiar with is just what you need. And this funnily enough is how I found out about Maltby Market.

I was sat outside Crumbs and Doilies in Soho having a coffee and a piece of cake when a woman walked past with her dog and said how great the cakes looked. We ended up chatting about food and she recommended this market. She said that Borough Market is known to all of the tourists however Maltby Market is known more to locals because of it's location. It can only be described as gourmet street food at it's best.

The street itself is fairly small and is only open on the weekends making it popular to say the least. None the less I grabbed my camera and still managed to get some photos of the amazing food on offer. Genuinely I didn't know what to go for. All be it small, you will not struggle for choice. I could have easily spent a fortune.

I chose to grab a British classic of 'Steak N Chips' from a place that specialised in serving quality cuts of beef. I paired it with peppercorn sauce and it was delicious and cooked just how I like it. I then thought about something sweet. I saw the sign that said London's best waffle was served at this market so I was eager to try. I chose the classic berries and yoghurt with a fruit coulis and it was INSANE. I know you're probably thinking how good can a waffle be right? This was just amazing.

Without a shadow of a doubt I will be going back soon, they even had a place serving cocktails which could be amazing during the summer.
