FOOD MARKETS


 
Since Spoon started back in September last year, we’ve been popping up at a few food markets in London (See below) 



We realised that finding our perfect fixed location was going to be a lengthy and difficult process, but with our cereal recipes tried and tested at home, we were keen for our cereal to take to the streets.



Luckily, with the food market scene taking London by storm, we found ourselves trading amongst a bunch of other small and independent food businesses who like us love doing something they enjoy and feel passionate about. 


So far, trading cereal from our gazebo has been a great experience. We’ve enjoyed chatting to visitors to our stall, who have listened to us ranting on about cereal. In turn we have taken on board all  their feedback.



We’ve also met some fantastic people within the community - some new to the scene like us, others trading veterans, who have always made us feel welcome.  I’d like to mention a few at this point @chazwinkles (seasonal british chutneys) @SimHChoc (handmade macaroons) @theavocadocafe (delish avocado dips @timmy’s_pies (comfort food at its best) and @arganic_uk (distinctive tasting & super healthy cooking oil) 



You forget about the bitter cold temperatures and the not-so -fun times (as when I managed to drop an entire crate of granola onto the floor whilst loading it into our car) when you have the opportunity to engage with such great people and gorge on so much delicious food!


Barnes Food Fair

Taking place every summer in Barnes, South West London, this market is a yummy mummy haven!




A family run business and owners of the famous Partridges store on the Kings Road, this is the “up market” market.




Run by the same family who bring you Partridges, visit this great little market to support the startisans.




Caron loves all things ethical, locally sourced, new and interesting and has done an amazing job at organising these weekly markets in Richmond and Ruislip.
