The Cabbages and Frocks Market in the beautiful Marleybone Village, is a splendid alternative to an arty afternoon out and about in the sun, away from the shadier galleries. Noted as being one of the locations of Vogue's secret address book and declared by the Independent as one of the 'Top 50 Best markets', the surroundings, the characters, the atmosphere create a wondrous time out. Offering anarray of products from art to craft to brick and brac to who knowswhat else, it is like an alternative to the legendary Portobello, although much, much smaller.
However, this is the beauty of Cabbages and Frocks it almost feels like a school fair that offers vintage Channel. Quite the school fair, but it is indeed Maryleybone after all. The trick is to keep your eyes open, and of course enjoy yourself. The food and beverages are global and delicious, the only thing that cannot be guaranteed, is the weather, it is London after all.
