  • Today I visit Broadway Market just next to London Fields. First a coffee from Climpson and son coffee and roasters. A look at all the amazing street food on offer at the Saturday market. I get lunch at F Cooke pie and mash shop on Broadway Market. F.Cooke's sell meat pies and mash and eels. Hot eels or jellied and cold, all available to enjoy in the restaurant or too go. Then a beer in the cat and mutton pub.

    I actually gave up eating meat, and don’t live in the UK anymore. But I grew up eating this stuff and it brings back such a fierce wave of nostalgia. The eels with my old man and the pie and tater with my dear mum. Both gone now and always missed. If I was back “home” I’d struggle not to go and get double double with liquor

      i gave up pie n mash back in the 80's coz i stopped eating meat. Cookes in dalston was my childhood pie shop in the main. i was watching a news article on local northern tv ( i moved out of hackney in the 90's) and Bob was being interviewed. in the window i could just see a sign saying vege pies available. Gawd was i on a high until we travelled back to see folks and rekindle that childhood feast once more and i haven't looked back since.
      Great thing is that my boys (all adults love the stuff too). Sad Bob has made decision to close. nearest vege pie (soya type) is Kelly's in Roman road market. So if you get over to uk again some time, head over there.

    I used to travel down to broadway having moved out of Hackney in the 1990's to visit family we'd always head straight to Bob's because he made vege (soya) pies which i discovered watching a local news item where i live where Bob was being interviewed,
    Bob used to allow us to use the loo on 1st floor which was still in it's original victorian tiled condition.
    My Dad, worked in the Broadway shop when he was demobbed from army circa 1948

    This was wonderful to watch., where I lived, my family., for a lifetime...just a point., the market was still thriving in the 50/60/70...the decline came around the 80/90.,
    But like all good things., the Market turned around., came back fighting. I have left this wonderful part of London where I grew up..I leave to the next generation., please take care of it.....much love to Cookes.....how I miss your pie and mash.

    I was looking for the Market House pH, but couldn't see it. We used to come from the pub and go over the road to 'Cookesies' for pie and mash Fridays or Saturdays in the sixties. Great social life all round that area then. The 'all on' stall at Ridley Road late nights used to open all the time, catering for people coming home from theatre, cinema, pubs or parties and all the cab drivers. They made lovely tea and coffee, and you could sit in your car and talk whilst enjoying a liver and bacon 'all on'. Any one know if these places are still there? Thanks for the nostalgia trip, much appreciated! XXX

    That was cool .. love looking round Broadway Market, been there a few times .. your right - it’s gone upmarket over the years re buyers/browsers etc .. very much love the canal and further down is Hackney City Farm .. a small affair but lovely to go to with or without children .. I’ve been to most of London’s markets over the years, nothing like a good old London street market, upmarket or just the ordinary everyday ones. .... one can see the way London is heading now by the gentrification of the street and indoor markets, Spittlefields is a prime example, redeveloped from a market of many many many stalls, to built up indoor uber expensive shops with the “designer product” stalls now being at the bottom .. Portobello, where I come from originally before moving East, is another prime example on its weekend days, full of young people saying yah, that’s not bad in itself but markets are out pricing the beauty of what London street markets were all about, the fun/laughter/banter, and most of all - cheap bargains etc ......

      It's just a parsley sauce. Very unobtrusive but they have bottles of chilli vinegar on the tables which you sprinkle into the liquor to make it come alive with zing. It doesn't look appetising but once you try it you'll be hooked.

      Doug Nish .. gentrification is Social Cleansing of the poor to make way for the rich .. it’s happening all over London with huge Council Estates being sold off by councils to property developers as starters. A very sad time, it could mean that London as we knew it, the vibrant city where everybody, rich-poor, all nationalities all got along and rubbed shoulders, maybe not the rich lol, will disappear under a blanket of blandness, empty streets and only people with money, and lots of it, living here. It’s happening in other major U.K. cities also ...

    BUT MEAL PRICES PLUS PIE AND MASH ARE UNLAWFULLY WELL ABOVEW THE LEGAL PRICES TO KEEP IN RELATION WITH BENEFITS, PENSIONS AND WAGES RISES FROM 1975 WHICH HAVE ONLY RISEN CIRCA 5 TIMES. IN 1975 THE AVERAGE PRICE OF A FIRST MEAL COURSE WAS 35 TO 50 PENCE, SO THEREFORE THE LEGAL MAXIMUM OF A MEAL IN 2020 LEGALLY IS NOTHING OVER £2 50 MAXIMUM !!!!. SO MOST CAFES ECT ARE WELL BREAKING THE LAW AND NEED PROSECUTING FOR OVER CHARGING AND IF THEY DO NOT LOWER THEIR PRICES ASAP THEY SHOULD BE CLOSED DOWN IMMEDIATELY !!!!.
