A new riverside street food market opens in one of London’s most iconic spots today. The KERB National Theatre riverside market offers food from some of the capital’s favourite traders, nestled beside the famed performing arts venue in the South Bank, and opens its doors for the first time today, Thursday 16th April, at midday. 

The Thameside street food smatterings are the latest location set up by KERB, whose portfolio includes KERB Social Club in Old Spitalfields Market, an eponymous venue in Berlin, Corner Corner in Canada Water, and Seven Dials Market in Covent Garden. 

Among the market’s food and drink options are Caribbean vendors BARBS, sandwich slingers Moody’s Dip Sandwiches, plant-based and dairy-free Chill Gelato, slow roast traders The Duck Shed, and a selection of wine, cocktails, beer, and slushies fresh from the tap from the National Theatre’s own Forza Wine. 

With its opening today at 12pm on Thursday 16th April, the market opens from 4pm to 10pm on Mondays and Tuesdays, 12pm to 10pm from Wednesdays to Saturdays, and 12pm to 8pm on Sundays.
