More than 70 firefighters battled a huge blaze at Camden Lock Market.
London Fire Brigade said 10 fire engines were at the scene of the fire that broke out in the early hours of Monday.
Dramatic footage showed flames raging as smoke billowed into the air, visible from miles away.
The brigade appealed for people to “please avoid the area” while they tackle the blaze at the popular north London market.
