Many people have reviewed this great market so I won’t go on too much about it. You can get to it from Notting Hill or Ladbroke Grove stations and the market runs all the way along Portobello Road.
I would recommend that you start at the Ladbroke Grove end or just rush past all the stalls and shops at the Notting Hill Gate end to get to the real people’s market. The beginning is very focused on tourist trade and as such sells a lot of generic fake antiques and souvenir type gifts.
Further down the market and you get to stalls that feature the fruit of the market stall owner’s labours, in many cases, literally fruit. But everything is bartered for at this market and some of the best stalls are the really individual ones which sell things you won’t get anywhere else, like custom made clothes, accessories, jewellery and leather goods.
The market is also a great place to get lunch on a Saturday afternoon as there are a great number of stalls selling hot fresh food from bratwurst to paella at cheap takeaway prices.
