About this deal

Is Leadenhall Market open? YES! The structure of Leadenhall Market is always open to the public 24 hours a day as a tourist attraction in London. It was Horace Jones who designed the gorgeous iron and glass structure that we see today. The cobbled floor, vibrant Victorian shopfronts, and oil lamps hanging from starry sky ceilings have not changed since! In the summer of 1993, as well as stopping there for drinks, Harry Potter stayed at the inn for a time, having accidentally blown up his Aunt Marge. He also met Cornelius Fudge in a private room for the first time. [13] [14] While the pub was, from the first, a place for witches and wizards to congregate — whether Londoners or out-of-towners up for the day to shop for the latest magical ingredients or devicesn— Muggles were not turned away or made to feel unwelcome, even though some of the conversations, not to mention pets, caused many an unwary Muggle to leave without finishing his or her mead. [1] The market structure is open 24 hours a day and some of the shops do close on weekends and that would mean fewer shoppers and commuters.

This was the first wizarding location, aside from the Leaky Cauldron, to be introduced in the series. The shop's name is not revealed in the books. It is only given in a tour of Diagon Alley included on the DVD of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, and in the Game Boy Color version of However, there are many bars located around here, so you may find a few drinkers who are still lurking around by morning! I’m guessing that if you’re reading this, you’re also a pretty big fan of the tales of the Boy who Lived – so I’ll let you in on a little secret… In the PS1 versions of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone (video game) and Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (video game), the storefront simply bears the name "Cauldrons".

We were enthusiastically greeted by Lewi and Kira before we’d even made it to the bottom of the stairs! Lewi went over all the details with us and his positivity was brilliant. Sir Horace Jones designed the building we see today in 1881, he’s the architect of the Tower Bridge, Billingsgate and Smithfield markets too. On 1 May 1998, at the height of the war, Harry Potter, Ron Weasley, and Hermione Granger, with the assistance of Griphook the goblin, staged a break-in of Gringotts Wizarding Bank. While passing through the Leaky Cauldron on the way to the bank, they noted that it was nearly empty. Tom bowed in fear at the sight of Hermione, who was disguised as Bellatrix Lestrange at the time. [16] This market with its gorgeous Victorian interiors is a gem to photograph and I would make sure to include it if you’re planning a photography trip to London. Cauldrons were once used by Muggles and wizards and witches alike, being large metal cooking pots that could be suspended over fires. In time, magical and non-magical people alike moved on to stoves; saucepans became more convenient and cauldrons became the sole province of witches and wizards, who continued to brew potions in them. A naked flame was essential for the making of potions, which made cauldrons the most practical pot of all. [1] Modern developments [ ]

Chocolate Cauldrons were boxed chocolates (eight to a box) shaped like cauldrons and filled with firewhisky. [17] Leadenhall Market became a Grade II listed building in 1972. This means that the building will be preserved and be protected and can be enjoyed for many years to come. We felt the make-yourself-menu was quite limited and we don’t like whisky or bourbon which appeared in all the options. We didn’t really like the resulting drinks from our potions but drank them anyway. The shot and welcome drink were lovely. I’d heard rumours about The Cauldron, London’s answer to Professor Snape’s potion room popping up around town. Although it’s a bit further out from central London, it’s really easy to get to using the overground to Dalston Kingston. From the station, you only have to walk up the one road. The entrance is quite subtle with just one door so make sure you keep an eye out and don’t walk past!Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, Chapter 5 ( Diagon Alley) - “a few old women[…] sitting in a corner, drinking tiny glasses of sherry,” The drinks were all such fun to make. There’s the option for alcoholic and non alcoholic to suit everyone. But be warned if you’re going for the alcoholic drinks - they’re very strong! We were definitely very tipsy when we’d finished (probably didn’t help that we got extra shots!) The easiest way to get around London would be to take the London Underground, commonly known as The Tube, and then walk to Leadenhall Market.
