For decades Borough Market has been the stomping ground of both housewife and gormet, it is the mecca of all things gastronomic so understandably we are totally over excited to be taking up residence at Borough from 2nd December.
The market is on every Thursday, Friday and Saturday, serving a vast range of shoppers from students to Chefs. Food programmes are often filmed there and for good reason, the selection of produce has to be seen to be believed - whether you fancy a few oysters, shucked and eaten on the hoof, fresh thai herbs or a bowl of porrige served hot Borough Market is the ultimate food location.
Borough Market will be open as usual every Thursday, Friday and Saturday in the run up to Christmas and we will also be open on the following days after the Evening of Cheese event on Wednesday, 15 December.
Wednesday, 15 December - 4pm to 8pm - An Evening of Cheese
Thursday, 16 December - 11am to 5pm
Friday, 17 December - 12pm to 6pm
Saturday, 18 December - 8am to 5pm
Sunday, 19 December - 10am to 4pm
Monday, 20 December - 10am to 4pm

Creake Abbey Farmers' Market
Whilst an autumnal sun shone down on Drove Orchards, barely nine miles away at Creake Abbey the sky was shrouded by a perpetual raincloud. Despite heavy rainbursts the market did go on, only dissuading those marketgoers of the fair-weather variety. Drove apples were ever popular, ever fought over, even moreso… was it the dewlike tint of raindrops on apples, a spark of poetry to the marketgoers eyes? Perhaps. The just-picked Elstar were a raved-about favourite today, and I call upon anyone passing by the orchards in the next few days to plunge their teeth into this pale yellow unassuming apple, with the juiciness of a Jona Red and the full flavour of a Cox Orange Pippin, this Twentieth Century Dutch cross is not one to miss!
Otherwise the stall was a cornucopia of all things appley – apple and almond cake, apple bread (lush), toffee apples, mulled apple juice as well as the usual produce – not to mention an overbrimming basket of our exotically scented Quinces, provoking many remarks.
Forgot the camera. But you can find us next at Creake Market on 4th December, the very same weekend as the Deepdale Christmas Fayre – with Santa-esque efficiency we shall be attending both.
