Famed for hosting the world’s largest antiques market every Saturday, Portobello Road and its side streets are also lined with independent boutiques, vintage shops and places to eat and drink, making it a cool destination for tourists, Londoners and local alike. This bright, contemporary shop to let will place you towards the upmarket Westbourne Grove end of this sought-after street, next to a selection of antique retailers and a Hummingbird Bakery.

THE CROWD

This area might have lost a bit of its boho charm, but you’ll still see plenty of local colour and character on Portobello Road. The market draws swarms of tourists on Fridays and (especially) Saturdays, while locals tend to stay away. It’s quieter during the week, but you’ll still see some well-heeled West Londoners coming here for coffee and a mooch around the shops – or going to catch a movie at the Electric Cinema, one of the UK’s oldest picture houses. Ladbroke Grove tube is an eight-minute walk away.

MEET THE NEIGHBOURS

Whilst famous for homeware, antiques and clothing, more recently Portobello Road has taken on a higher end appeal with the likes of Golds and Soul Cycle opening nearby.
