Inside the Harrods Fresh Food Market

No.1: Harrods Charcuterie, Traiteur and Fromagerie Hall 

The world famous food emporium has an epic cheese, fresh pasta, and delicatessen area.

The glass-fronted serving stations showcase all the top-notch delicacies from around the world.

It’s totally ok to buy in small quantities for a picnic lunch, or hotel room tasting plate. 

Be prepared for your mouth to water! 

No.2: Harrods Fresh Market Hall

The Harrods Fresh food hall is filled fruits and vegetables from around the world, all beautifully displayed for the picking.

There’s fruits here we’ve NEVER seen before, and some we can’t even pronounce!

And then there’s mangoes and dragonfruit, fruits that grow in abundance just a few kilometres from our home!

Find seasonal vegetables including:

• green spring cabbages
• eggplant
• heritage carrots, and
• broccoli bunches too. 

The vegetable butcher (!) will even chop or spiralise them for you! 

No.3: Harrods Juice Bar

The hardest thing is to choose your juice from the tonnes of different sweet healthy choices. 

And the prices are not bad either.

Pop one into your basket, or if you prefer your drink fresh not bottled, order a juice or smoothie straight from the juice bar. 

No.4: Harrods Meat, Fish and Poultry Hall

If you’re a meat eater, the Meat Hall is a dream come true. 

There are so many different cuts of top class meat here including:

• pork belly
• Australian wagyu beef steaks
• Kobe beef fillets
• French trim rib of beef, and
• lamb sausages and bacon for a English Breakfast fry-up.

There’s no need to eat the same dish twice.

The Tomahawk steaks though!  Get into my belly now. 

No.5: Seafood & Chicken

In the fish hall, you can buy traditional London Fish and Chips, and there’s seafood, oysters and a Caviar Bar.

Check out the eggs, milk, butter and cream next to the cheese counter.

Think olive-green and blue-shelled eggs, organic Jersey cow milk, and golden churned butter from rich cream. 

There’s a Rotisserie, with the most succulent slow-grown tender chicken marinated for 24 hours before it’s cooked. Bet it’s the best you’ve ever tasted! 

Did you know you can buy ready to eat roast potatoes and truffle mac’n’cheese too?

No.6: Harrods Roastery & Bake Hall 

Kids love the Harrods Food Store Bakery, especially the pizza foccacia breads, the giant pretzels, all butter croissants, Nocellara olive sticks, and the Vintage Cheddar cheese sticks. 

Grab a fresh sourdough loaf (or one of the other 14 types of bread) to go with your cheese board selections, and go, and tick off a budget Harrods meal from your bucket list. 

But the sourdough is the pick of the bunch.

You can even have it personalised with your initials! 

The Patisserie is home to cake heaven:

• sweet tarts
• hummingbird cake
• chocolate brownies
• Chocolate Bar
• Mille-feuille
• super cute Harrods food hall cupcakes
