I visited this market located in Electric Avenue essentially to find a colourful shirt. Although the market is relatively small,I guessed that they would know what I was looking for. Electric Avenue is a street in Brixton, London built in the 1880's. It was the first market street to be lit by electric lights. Today the market contains various food and domestic provisions retailers and hosts part of the market that specialises in selling a mix of African, Caribbean, South American and Asian products. It is located just around the corner from Brixton underground tube station. When I have enough time I like to slowly browse the market stalls mainly for their shirts. But they have got some very interesting jackets and trousers on display. With some very colourful designs especially if you like Reggae music's Bob Marley and the wailers. I must also add that a few of the market stalls sell some very impressive jewellery (rings, necklaces, bracelets, earrings). A lot of the Gold and silver looks very authentic and apparently lasts a long time. Without becoming worn or tarnished. So super helpful, friendly market stalls. Let's hope the weather stays fine.🌤️

All way safe and brilliant staff and great music as well when on .. and best little vegetarian restaurant to boot, 10/10 overall experience....xx 😋 👌 😍 🙌 😀 😄 😋

Food. cosmetics products, gear towards the locals, and everyone. Vibrant, inclusive, representing the best of London Town.

Great choice of produce. Ethiopian tapas. Fresh meat and fish. Great prices.

Meandering market that’s expansive, animated and authentic - and authentic we like and wouldn’t have it any other way. A paradigm for “multi-cultural” London with a diverse spread of products, services and eating options still mostly catering for the local community. You’re bound to find something every-day useful here, value clear cut at a hard-knuckled price. You’re unlikely to be transported into the realm of the extraordinary but this doesn’t devalue the impact nor the experience. Better than good but not best, if you catch my drift.

Well maintained and decorated with a variety of different stalls, just be aware that the stalls and shops all seemed to have different opening and closing times so all weren't open at once.

Jerk, chicken, rice and peas, salt, fish akee a good vibe, but some small portions. The oxtail is what you want it’s really rich

Brixton has been unfairly labelled in the past but visited today and what a lovely diverse vibrant place. Really enjoyed walking around soaking up the irie culture and seeing it's population. The worry for these areas is that they are historically important in regards to how the British Afro Caribbean community adapted and assimilated but seem to be going through the London gentrification process

Every interesting place is full of small shops, and a good atmosphere.

Always have a great time when I venture here, so much to do.

Wonderful indoor market with a great selection of different cultures and places to eat and drink.

You get everything that might be needed in our daily life. Nice to have a feeling of the diverse demographic, and food choices covering almost all parts of the world. Prices are competitive. You may be reminded of the village Bazaars of the bygone era. I enjoy the place to the fullest. Give a try.

Always a colourful experience you can find all west indies and Afro veggies and food at local prices.

Vibrant with colors, sounds and smells, wonderful and full of life even on a Monday morning.

Small market easily reached by the tube (stop: Brixton). One finds plenty of food stalls and shops which sell fish and fruits from around the world. There are also stalls selling quirky items.

It's an experience that you'd never forget. As you exit the underground station you make a left turn....from there you will encounter stalls, guys just with a table on the side selling accessories or scented oils, live preachings from Christians and Muslims, individuals handing out fliers to invite you to something. You get past Iceland and then take another left and you walk into what seems like an entire country all together. African pattern cloth gently swaying in the wind hanging from racks outside tents, afro/caribbean music coming from speakers in a nearby shop making you wanna dance in tune, pots and pans on offer, bags, shoes, plated jewellery all for the "fake it till you make it" look. On this street which is about 300 feet long you will everything from household items, clothing, hairdressers and barbers to fresh vegetables, meat and fish and bakery. The street then branches off into other streets where you can find restaurants with a variety of cuisines from all ethnicities and indoor markets BUT the vibe is wholesome. So yes, Brixton has a bad rep with all the violence and all that which is mostly attributed to young men but in the market you will find that violence appears non existent...everyone is cheerful, welcoming no one haggles you to the point where you feel disgusted...no! Every stall takes you back home (african/caribbean), it's nostalgic. Nothing else compares to this in the UK! At least, nothing I've seen. Mark your calendar, go visit Brixton market!!!

Brixton Market... Don't go there on Sundays. There are vibes, but more people on Fridays and Saturdays. Plenty of food and drinks to try, and even more shops to browse. Be in a good mood and offer yourself a break in any of the nice places.

Much more than a market, multicultural and trendy. My wife and my three daughters enjoyed it a lot. One of them even went to cut her hair in one of the tiny little hairdressers. Not to mention it was not a big deal but it was stylish anyway.

If you want to cook some Caribbean food? This is a place to get all your ingredients

Just had a quick look around with my daughter got a few funny looks. Great 🌊 🦭 food stalls

Mix of two halves, high Street with many inaccessible shops for mobility impared (2 declined my custom) but the market and railway area is great wiyh very helpful shops, even offering to bring items outside. Definitely coming back to explore more

Wide variety of food, shopping groceries, hair, clothes and all sorts. You can get fresh meat and fish daily and you can get Spanish, British, African and all sorts of ethnic shopping opportunities

This was an amazing experience of culture and shopping. Very different from Piccadilly Square, Leicester or even Trafalgar square. Its like one huge flea market and hustle. Will not liked by everyone, but an interesting experience nonetheless. Wear jeans and t-shirt and let your hair down for this one.
