Portobello Road Market is a street market on Portobello Road, in the Notting Hill area. In the world famous part of the market, antiques are sold and portraits of tourists are made. The main day of the market is Saturday therefore we went there on Saturday, 27th. We arrive approximately at 12:45 h and left at 15:30 h.
We searched and found the house where the movie Notting Hill was filmed with Julia Roberts as the protagonist. The address was 280 Wesbourne Park Road.
The Travel Book Store, where some sequences of the famous movie were filmed, was part of the visit to Portobello Road. Now it's a souvenir shop, but it still has the label of the Notting Hill travel bookstore on a blue background on its facade. A nice place to visit.
We visited the market in an endless street and very crowded with a variety of stalls with everything a little: antiques, souvenirs, clothes, food. In many ways, as a Spanish local street market.
We had trouble finding a restaurant where we eat, because we were too many people. In the end we found a pizzeria where we could eat together, but, unfortunately, their service was very slow and we arrived very late with the appointment with the teachers. Sorry!
