About

Browse for vintage fashion, handmade jewellery, unusual gifts and eye-catching accessories at Camden Market in Camden Town.

The market is made up of three distinct locations: Stables Market, previously a horse stable and hospital, Camden Lock and Hawley Wharf, next to Regent’s Canal.

Shopping at Camden Market

Make a day of it – early risers can get their coffee fix at Camden Coffee Roastery before seeking out pre-loved bargains in the many vintage shops, including The Vintage Collection, Vintage Bunch and Time Tunnel Vintage.

The market is filled with quirky shops selling everything from unique gifts to handmade accessories. Look out for head-turning hats from Mad Hatters, mind-bending mechanical puzzles at GoGo Gadget, vintage signage from Camden Retro Signs, or pick up some vinyl at one of the market’s music stalls.

Cyberdog is the place to go to shop for neon dancewear and futuristic fashion, and feels more like a club than a shopping destination, while Half Hitch gin is on sale at the local microdistillery.

Food and drink at Camden Market

There are plenty of street food stalls, cafes and restaurants across the site serving up cuisine from across the globe.

Try traditional Indonesian dishes from Pino’s Warung, Caribbean-inspired chicken at Dragon Tenders or Middle Eastern plates at Zala Grill. Meanwhile, Yorkshire Burrito is serving up a classic British dish with an unexpected twist in the form of a Sunday roast-inspired Yorkshire pudding wrap.

If you’re craving something sweet try the liquid nitro ice cream from Chin Chin Labs or their Killer Hot Chocolate, a liquid chocolate topped with blow torched marshmallow fluff.

If all the shopping makes you thirsty, relax over a fragrant pot of tea at The Camden Tea Bar.
