Faces you'll see:
A bit off the beaten track, Wimbledon has the feel of a self-contained Home Counties town, especially around the upmarket and lively Wimbledon Village. Both the village and the area of the town near the station are usually heaving with people on Saturdays – there’s a good selection of fairly mainstream shops in and around the shamelessly named Centre Court shopping centre, and plenty of nice restaurants in Wimbledon Village.
Wimbledon farmers market is close to the tube and the park. It takes place in a primary school playground, which is fitting, as Wimbledon is a very family-oriented area. A good place to take children, Wimbledon farmers market is full of locals, who like to stay within their local area, because venturing into Central London takes too long and Wimbledon has everything they need. At Wimbledon farmers market, you’re bound to see a few sporty types – the area attracts tennis enthusiasts unsurprisingly – as well as plenty of supermums and competitive dads buying organic packed lunch supplies and weekend lunches.
