Halal at award-winning Venn Street Market in London Clapham
With a strong ethos of ensuring high quality and fair prices, the market guarantees all goods are locally sourced and seasonal.
Venn Street Market is an award-winning community in south London that’s renowned for providing a platform for specialist traders, farmers and small independent producers to meet face to face with customers each week.
Consecutive winners of Time Out London’s ‘Love London Awards’ 2015 and 2016, as well as the ‘Incredible Edible Lambeth’s Blooming Awards in 2018, the immensely popular stretch in Clapham has a vibrant street food culture too.
Following their decision to gentrify the corner of SW4 by pedestrianising it back in 2012, the weekly market has been going strong ever since every Saturday from 10am to 4pm, with Clapham Common being its nearest tube station (Northern Line).
In fact, we’ve unearthed the following handful of Halal-friendly street food stalls who offer a variety of exciting cuisines, ranging from Indonesian and Sri Lankan to Japanese and Seychellois, that are definitely worth visiting.
MAKATCHA

Makatcha, who also operate in Kerb West India Quay, operate on the 1st and 5th Saturday of each month, and bring the “gorgeous taste of Rendang to the streets”.
