Chrisp Street Market

East London's First Pedestrian Shopping Area

A historic market with a strong community spirit, Chrisp Street Market offers shopping, food and local culture in the heart of Poplar.

Opened in the 1950s as part of the Festival of Britain, Chrisp Street Market was one of Britain's first purpose-built pedestrian shopping centres. Today it continues to serve residents and visitors with a mix of market stalls, shops, cafés and services. The market retains a strong local identity while celebrating the heritage and diversity that define Poplar and the wider East End.
