You will be amazed by the freshness and the price of the seafood. But be an early bird! No goodies will be left by 6am. :(
The United Kingdom's largest inland fish market. In its original location in the 19th century, Billingsgate was the largest fish market in the world.
Canary Wharf is no longer an active trading port but it has had the UK's largest inland fish market since 1982. Billingsgate Market is a wholesale market that covers 13 acres.

Just be aware you will need to go in the early hours of the morning as it is open from 4am to 8am. Maybe leave the first hour or so to the wholesaler buyers and be there for 6am when it is less busy.
