Solomons' Yard is Back!
Summer extravaganza
SHARE
An unmissable opportunity to see Camden Market at night, the Solomons’ Yard Weekenders will transport Londoners to pre-market days, when what is now known as the Middle Yard played host to Alfie Solomon’s (Tom Hardy in Peaky Blinders) underground whisky smuggling and gambling operation.
Chow down on some serious street food talent and unwind after a busy week’s work to soundtracks perfectly spun for a balmy London night.
Note: This will be updated regularly with new acts and street food traders, so be sure to come back for the latest additions!

For the uninitiated, a Kati roll is a flaky paratha flatbread cooked in ghee stuffed with meat or cheese and a zinging combination of fresh coriander, tomato, green chilli, pink pickled onions and a squeeze of lime.
La Churreria | Fried churro joy
Churros, the Spanish cousin of doughnuts are great for lots of reasons, however here are our favourite: A) they are covered in cinnamon sugar and B) they are narrow enough to dunk.
Lulu Schnitzel | Clucking good chicken
Pretty much what it says on the tin: providing flattened, breaded, fried chicken to the masses. As street food goes, you’ll be on to a winner, winner with this chicken dinner.
Maize Blaze | Colombian explosion
The Colombian Marching Box ‘guaranteed to keep you marching all day!’ is something of a signature dish. They have also created a Solomons’ Yard Special made exclusively for the weekend events. The Coco-Choco Vegan Rice Balls features vanilla and cinnamon infused almond milk rice pudding, rolled in coconut and fried to a golden shell with vegan caramel based chocolate sauce. YUMMY!
Traditional rendang made Indonesian style, Makatcha make their curries with coconut cream, lemongrass, galangal and kaffir limes leaves to name a few. It’s a south-east Asian flavour sensation.
