Portobello Market is absolutely unmissable on your visit to Notting Hill (both as something to visit, but also physically, seeing as it&#8217;s on one of the most popular roads in the area!).<\/p>\n<p>The mile-long street market sells a wide variety of goods, clothes, antiques and even food, with different items being sold on different days. It is open every day, except for Sunday.<\/p>\n<p>On weekdays, you&#8217;ll find a wonderful fresh fruit and veg market, generally located between where Portobello Road intersects Colville Terrace and Westbourne Park Road.<\/p>\n<p>On Fridays and Saturdays there is a funky selection of clothes stalls, located under the Westway. Beyond that is a plethora of stalls selling second-hand goods.<\/p>\n<p>And of course, the market wouldn&#8217;t be the market without the renowned antiques market on Saturdays! The market on this day is by far the busiest. As long as you don&#8217;t mind fairly big crowds, you&#8217;ll be fine &#8211; but if you do, be warned!<\/p>\n<p>Almost every day you&#8217;ll find some stalls selling a variety of knick knacks, perhaps some handcrafted items, unusual one-off items and similar.<\/p>\n<p>The market runs from where Portobello Road intersects with Chepstow Villas, right up to the intersection with Golborne Road &#8211; although by both of these intersections, there&#8217;s fewer stalls. Head to the bit of Portobello Road from Colville Terrace up to the Westway for the &#8220;thick of the action&#8221; i.e. the most stalls.<\/p>\n<p>Whatever day you go on, you&#8217;ll find a number of cafes, pubs and bars along Portobello Road and just off it, so there are plenty of places to take a rest and grab a bite to eat or a drink during your visit to the market.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"opening-hours\">Opening\u00a0Hours<\/h3>\n<p>Monday &#8211; Wednesday: 8am &#8211; 6.30pm<br \/>\nThursday: 8am &#8211; 1pm<br \/>\nSaturday: 8am &#8211; 6.30pm<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"getting-there\">Getting There<\/h3>\n<p>We would recommend either travelling to Notting Hill Gate Underground station and walking down the Portobello Road, or going to Westbourne Park station and heading up the road.<\/p>\n<p>Links<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" style=\"border: 0px;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thehill.co.uk\/images\/point.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"6\" height=\"7\" style=\"border:none;\"\/><a href=\"http:\/\/www.portobellomarket.org\/\"> PortobelloMarket.org<br \/>\n<\/a><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thehill.co.uk\/images\/point.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"6\" height=\"7\" style=\"border:none;\"\/><a href=\"http:\/\/www.rbkc.gov.uk\/subsites\/visitkensingtonandchelsea\/shopping\/nottinghill\/ourmarkets\/portobelloroadmarket.aspx\" target=\"_blank\"> Portobello Market<\/a> information from the local council website<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thehill.co.uk\/images\/point.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"6\" height=\"7\" style=\"border:none;\"\/><a href=\"http:\/\/www.portobelloroad.co.uk\/\"> Portobello Market Antiques Dealers Association<br \/>\n<\/a><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thehill.co.uk\/images\/point.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"6\" height=\"7\" style=\"border:none;\"\/><a href=\"http:\/\/www.timeout.com\/london\/shopping\/features\/8799\/Portobello_Road_Market_guide.html\"> Portobello Market guide from Time Out<\/a>(Sept 2009)<\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>London has many markets, but one of the best is most definitely the world-famous Portobello Road Market \u00a0&#8211; and we&#8217;re not just saying that because this is a guide to Notting Hill!
