It's really more of a 4.5 but I rounded up simply for the quality of a few of the stalls. Excellent variety for a slightly touristy food market. Anybody who says it's "mostly Chinese food" has no idea what they're talking about, and as a further note, China has many distinct, unique cuisines that are very different from each other so just because they have writing in Chinese, doesn't mean they're selling all the same food. Stop being racist. We came here almost exclusively for the curry fishballs and HK street food stall but found much more. There is Hong Kong, Chinese, Thai, Japanese, Korean, Mexican, British, Lithuanian, Brasilian, Tibetan, Greek, Jamaican, Eitrean, Italian, Turkish, Ethiopian, etc etc. Are they the most authentic ever? No. It's typical "street food market" type fare for the most part, but some are seriously good and very authentic. Prices are reasonable and expected for London markets. Not much seating/standing room inside but toilets are surprisingly clean. Have to give a big shout out to the best Turkish coffee I've ever had: 24 Karak! They have many different options but I chose the basic iced Dalonga coffee and it was awesome. The HK stall was also great. I wondered if this is the evolution of the food market that used to be smaller and across the street where I had unforgettable fantastic Ethiopian vegan couscous, almost 7 years ago. I think it may be, but I didn't get to try the Ethiopian this time, and it didn't seem like they had the dish I remember so fondly. There are also a few stalls with non-food items like jewellery, collectibles, accessories, etc.

So many things to eat and explore! Amazing place with mix of cultures, colors and music. Must see in my opinion.

I went there on Saturday. I do not know what it is like during the weekdays but I would recommend visiting it at the weekend. There were already lots of stalls around 11 o'clock, but few of them were just opening up. You do not have to come earlier.Huge different variety of food can be found, and also, the sellers keep giving you free samples right away. After a bit of stroll around, I was almost full and did not buy anything yet. If you wanna get your lunch and are not sure what you wanna it just come here, and you will find something for sure. I like this place and the whole Brick Lane for their markets and vintage clothes shops etc... also, the toilet is available inside, and I was shocked at how clean it was.

This food and clothing market appeared as a genuine surprise while we were making our way to the Truman Brewery and feeling peckish. The hall is packed with all sorts of tempting stalls selling hot food, drinks and sweet fancies. We plumped for chinese noodles and chicken but frankly all of the dishes on offer looked great. Just next to the food area there's a separate space for edgy and unusual clothing. I'm not much of a fashion victim but these stalls looked very impressive and worth browsing if you like to dress in your own style.

It's a very interesting place with tons of shops in and around the market. The food stalls ate excellent and they let you try fresh samples so you can compare before you buy
