Every tourist has heard of Old Spitalfields Market, but not everyone knows that on Thursdays there is an antique market, not as noisy as the one on Sundays, but a lot more content. That's where you go to find kitchenware, furniture and other interior details, which are appreciated by true collectors. My weakness is the vintage accessories and costumes jewelry, especially I love Mappin and Webb snake skin bags, and Exquisite flower brooches. On Commercial Street, right across the street from the market, there's a branch of a famous restaurant St. John. St. John Bread and Winewine store and bakery is an ideal place for breakfast after strolling through the market.
