Watney Market — Local services in London

This is my honest opinion on the quality of the market. In general, it's an amazing unusual place. Me and my children always have the best time going down the market, we have stop giggling. Right, where shall I start? Down to business, let's start with Iceland, when the druggies sneak in to steal pork chops, the security man runs but never catch him, he never gets too far. At least he tries to burn some calories. Then you get the uniform shop Ocean designs, the home of Herbert the pervert, he's not interested in selling, rather he takes interest in women's cleavages, he doesn't look at the size of the clothes, he looks at the shape of your body, so make sure u shake it. When you get into the heart of the market, you find the fruit sellers rubbing n massaging between the toes n soon after offering you cheap rotten "fresh" fruit. Hygiene is always first! And last but not least, the optician who is so business orientated, he gives himself good reviews and his mono...

A couple of decent discount shops, also an Iceland and Peacocks. Other than that there's nothing attractive about it. The area is dirty and the locals are generally rude and inconsiderate. People generally walk into you with push chairs or trolleys whilst walking through the market including Iceland where people at times walk in front of you and block your movement.

An honest review would detail this area has a large bengali community. So if the market sells styles of clothes reflecting this. They have a peacocks store. Chemists. Iceland. Glickmans. Wimpy. Perry ingles. 3-4 poundshops. Diy-Decorating store. A celebrations card and gift store. A charity shop. A print your pictures to canvas, the shirts, cups type shop. A car enthusiasts shop. A very good dry cleaners. A small supermarket for locals to perhaps compete Icelands. Depending on what you are used to. This isn't the best nor the worst. Just an honest grab at what's there. Two minutes away you have sainsburys and tesco express stores on commercial road. Subway....
