About Town - Welcome to Islington: Camden Passage

Laura Mariani

Camden Passage has ranked alongside Portobello, Kensington Church Street and Spitalfields since the 1950s as one of London’s leading antique locations, and now the area has added also many new shops, restaurants, cafes, and market stalls

If you like something original, you can certainly find it here: fashionable contemporary clothing, modern designer jewellery, Japanese art prints, together with specialist antique, silverware, vintage clothing, and retro shops which provide the backdrop for market stalls selling affordable collectables, vintage clothes and objets d’art that find their way into antique shops and homes all over the world.
Not to forget the various restaurant and cafés where you can pause in between shopping and wandering around.
Camden Passage has four separate market areas - Annie's Antique & Vintage Market, Camden Passage Market, Charlton Place Market, and Pierrepont Arcade Market. The market areas and market stalls each have different areas of expertise, so take your time to look around.
