Golborne Road market
Golborne Road is located just off Ladbroke Grove at the Northern
end of Portobello Road market. The market opening times are the
same as Portobello Road. Golborne Road has its own quirky ambiance,
with an eclectic mix of international food stalls, restaurants from
everyday cafes to upscale cuisine, second-hand and vintage wares,
architectural antiques, niche designer and vintage fashion
boutiques, personal pampering, discount and convenience
shops, and local services. It stretches past the iconic grade
II* listed Trellick
Tower (home to innovative Council-supported social
enterprise Goldfinger
Factory), which itself overlooks the
Grand Union Canal leading to Regents Park, Camden and
beyond. Golborne Road also serves as the hub of thriving Portuguese
and North African communities.
During the week the market offers mainly fruit, vegetables,
takeaway food, and household goods. On Friday and Saturday the
market comes alive with a busy second hand and bric-a-brac
section.
