In a new accessible location on the riverside, the Catford Food Market takes place on the last Sunday of every month, bringing back our favourite traders as well as introducing some exciting new faces!
Only a short 16 minute journey from central London, discover another corner of the capital and join us for Catford Food Market, now in its 5th year, overlooking the River Ravensbourne. As well as an award-winning gin and local gift shop, Catford also boasts the Catford Food Market, which is now running its 30th market. Perfectly lodged between Catford and Catford Bridge station and approximately 210 steps from its former location on Catford Broadway, the new location makes the market much more accessible, easier to reach and sets a beautiful scene to explore while you munch on delicious foods that are authentically Catford.
Reflecting the diversity of the town, Catford Food Market features an incredible line up of vendors from the local community, sharing the cuisine of their culture and allowing you to experience different tastes and cultural foods. Fully booked with 20 traders, you’ll be sure to find something to suit your palate or explore and try things you have never seen before, like maybe some:
- Authentic Tarte de Amêndoa from Almada Portuguese Bakery
- Artisan chilli sauces from Catford fire if you’re brave!
- Traditional dumplings from Mandala Himalayan Dumplings
- Delicious Ghanaian jollof rice from Zongo foods
There will also be a bunch of new traders! The Market will welcome Finer Things Deli, a Spanish deli where you can buy deliciously prepared meats, and Concrete Jungle Plants, showcasing house plants in their homemade pots. Also, a local favourite trader, Raastawala, is back and here to stay! Rinku Dutt is a Catfordian who brings her recipes, straight from the heart of Bengal to the streets of Catford and has recently very generously shared her secrets in a new cookbook, Kolkata, which you can check out here.
Whether you’re grabbing a bite to go, feeling adventurous to try hearty foods from new cuisines or looking to explore the great town of Catford, be sure to drop by the market.
