Borough Market - A place for the Easter feaster Inbox

 

A place for the Easter feaster   Usually, Easter would be all about gathering with family to feast on roast meats, seasonal vegetables and enough chocolate to make your pancreas wince. This year, part of the usual equation will be missing: unless you happen to live in a particularly large household, the feasting will be more limited in scale. But that doesn’t mean you can’t still indulge yourselves. After all, what else is there to do? There’s plenty of time for a few walks around the park between meals. From roasting joints to Easter eggs, everything you could possibly need is available at Borough Market  – all of it of the highest quality and produced using sustainable methods. If you live locally, our traders will be here to serve you on Good Friday (10am-6pm) and Easter Saturday (8am-5pm), then closed on the Sunday and Monday. If you’re further afield, there’s plenty of time to place an order with Borough Market Online, which delivers direct to London addresses and, where available, by post to the rest of the UK.   Shop online now Come, shop, leave   As a source of essential produce, Borough Market remains open six days a week. To keep our traders, shoppers and staff safe, masks are now mandatory in all parts of the Market, food and drink cannot be consumed anywhere on site, and visitor numbers are being restricted at busy times.
