Seven Dials Market, Food market in Seven Dials, Covent Garden, United Kingdom.
Seven Dials Market is an indoor food market on two floors in Covent Garden, London, set inside a former warehouse. Around 25 independent food vendors are spread across both levels, with shared tables and benches available throughout.
The building was originally used as a storage warehouse for Thomas Neal's Covent Garden market in the 19th century, handling goods like cucumbers and bananas for the city. It was converted into a food market much later, repurposing the space without erasing its original structure.
Seven Dials is a neighborhood known for its small streets and independent shops, and the market fits naturally into that character. The food on offer ranges from British cheeses to Japanese snacks, reflecting how Londoners eat today.
The market is easy to reach on foot from several nearby tube stations and is well signposted in the area. If you want to browse without too much noise around you, weekday mornings or early afternoons tend to be quieter.
Pick and Cheese runs what is considered London's first conveyor belt cheese restaurant, where portions travel past diners on a moving belt in the same way sushi does in a Japanese restaurant. Booking ahead is required for the weekly cheese buffet sessions.
