- Stijn VogelsOctober 29, 2011Leadenhall Market was used to represent the area of London near The Leaky Cauldron and Diagon Alley in the film Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone.Upvoted 2 weeks ago
reza setiawan رضا ستياوانMarch 23, 2019A good place to dine and unwind in the evening. One of my fave in London.
- M CJanuary 18, 2017A must for Harry Potter fans! There is nothing much to do except shopping little stuff. Flowers, clothes and a really good pen store. Have a coffee or take a walk, it's beautiful and charming.
Shaun WestonAugust 7, 2016The historical venue for modern filmmakers: Clint Eastwood's Hereafter, and Harry Potter (Leaky Cauldron). All the shops were closed when I visited, so can't comment.
BiancaFebruary 25, 2017Lovely for an afternoon bite and a glass of wine. Especially because nobody aims those places - pubs are crowded. The place is too nice to be missed.
Andrew CAugust 24, 2018Very small, compared to other city markets... but seemed higher-end with real shops and set within really cool architecture building (instead of shacks/stalls)
Piccy LokeApril 4, 2018went too early on a weekday morning. wasn’t any crowds around to have the market feel but had beautiful shots without people around!
Dr. Hessa AlsubaieAugust 15, 2022If you’re coming here for pictures, come on Sunday when everything’s closed and there’s no crowds- Visit Ortega for fine Spanish food reasonably priced. Try the fried manchego and honey with seafood paella and a bottle of Vega del Rayo.
Maxwell LoganNovember 8, 2015Its cobbled walkways and glass Victorian roof make it an attractive place to shop, eat and drink or simply relax
HISTORY UKJanuary 17, 2011This was the site of London’s enormous Roman basilica (seat of civic government), the largest north of the Alps. The current name comes from a medieval house here that had lead roofing
Ankur BanerjeeOctober 10, 2015Coffee shops in and around the market tend to close fairly early in the evening, around 6pm. (Yes, even the chains.)
Jamie BarnardJanuary 5, 2015I went on a sunday and it was closed but its an amazing place to walk around. The books on the ceiling are good
Joe MochanJune 5, 2014Tortilla do good burrito wraps and Chopped do a good selection of warm salads, the falafel and hummus one is great
J. Andrew DuftonJanuary 30, 2012Leadenhall Market was built on the site of the Roman forum and basilica. An 1881 plan of the 'antiquities' exposed on the site showed extensive remains of the forum and basilica buildings.- -April 9, 2018Fantastic passage having many pubs & restaurants inside. Perfect choice to have a pint after work
Gary NuttallAugust 14, 2015Constantly changing, great place to visit with a good selection of places to eat- Enzo MartinelliMarch 5, 2018Built on top of the site of a Roman basilica and forum, now an old shopping mall
You can see the remains of the basilica in the basement of the hairdressers in the corner..
Jenny LawSeptember 4, 2015A beautiful place. Although I thought it would be like Covent Garden with stalls there.
Come during a weekday...always very closed on weekends.
Howard SamuelsMarch 14, 2019Food, Drinks and a bit of Shopping!!! Great for Harry Potter Fans too!!!
Oliver ShreeveSeptember 26, 2014Rather pretty, but not much to visit. They have good Christmas decorations when it's the season though.
Try the Eggs And Bacon Butty - Work meeting with a nice cooked breakfast
Anthony Da CostaOctober 29, 2010Great Portuguese chicken available by an independent stand on a Friday
(Some Wednesdays) Thursday & Friday there is an amazing falafel stand - definitely worth a look!
