What happened
Time Out Market, the popular food hall concept that originated in Lisbon, will open in London in 2028. The new location will be in Piccadilly Circus, one of London's most iconic spots. According to Time Out Lisboa, the market will bring together some of the best chefs, restaurants, and talents from the city.
The announcement was published on Time Out Lisboa's website on August 7, 2026, stating that the market is coming to the heart of London.
Why it matters for international residents
For international residents in Portugal, many may have visited the original Time Out Market in Lisbon's Mercado da Ribeira, which showcases Portuguese cuisine and culture. The expansion to London offers an exciting opportunity to experience a similar concept abroad, especially for those who travel frequently or have connections to the UK. It also reflects the global appeal of the Time Out Market brand, which started in Lisbon and has since expanded to other cities like New York, Dubai, and now London. This expansion may also create new opportunities for Portuguese chefs and restaurateurs to showcase their talents internationally.
What to do next
If you are planning a trip to London in 2028 or later, keep an eye out for the new Time Out Market at Piccadilly Circus. You can also follow Time Out Lisboa for more updates on the project. Meanwhile, if you haven't visited the original Time Out Market in Lisbon, it's a great place to discover local and international flavors.
