Whether they’re trader’s market OGs, or brand-new boutiques on Market Street, there’s always something new to explore, eat or be entertained by here at East London’s favourite market. Keep reading for some Valentine’s ‘gift-spo’ for those treating someone special or indulging in some much-needed self-love.
