A food market of stalls and shops under iron roofs and railway viaducts next to London Bridge station. One stall stirs paella in giant pans, another carves hog roast into rolls. Many visitors do it as a set: paella, Monmouth coffee, a Bread Ahead doughnut. At lunchtime you'll be shoulder to shoulder.
