As well as winding queues, there\u2019s one thing you\u2019re almost guaranteed to see at a London<\/a> food market: influencers<\/a>. <\/p>\n

Armed with an iPhone<\/a> camera and unnatural levels of self-confidence, they\u2019ll be biting into the most viral and Instagram-worthy<\/a> treats going, telling you whether or not it’s worth splashing the cash on.<\/p>\n

But one market has come under fire online, after it was claimed that they were \u2018banning\u2019 influencers from filming there.<\/p>\n

Borough Market<\/strong> has been accused of changing up its filming rules after a video of two food reviewers being kicked off the premises went viral – but a spokesperson for the market wants to set the record straight. <\/p>\n

A spokesperson told Metro<\/strong>: \u2018We haven\u2019t banned influencers or content creators from Borough Market and our filming policy has been in place for years.\u2019<\/p>\n

They continued to say: \u2018We value the role that food reviewers play in showcasing Borough Market and its traders. <\/p>\n

\u2018Our filming policy is designed to ensure that activity doesn\u2019t cause disruption to stallholders or visitors and our security team is trained to ask for the relevant permission from anyone filming in the market.\u202f <\/p>\n

\u2018Our number one priority is to ensure that visitors are comfortable and at times we do need to alleviate the congestion which can happen around particularly popular sites within our market. <\/p>\n

\u2018This occasionally means we ask food reviewers to stop filming if they are causing congestion or haven’t got the relevant permission.\u2019<\/p>\n

What is Borough Market\u2019s policy on filming?<\/h2>\n

The FAQ section of the Borough Market website<\/a> states that people looking to film or take photos for \u2018professional purposes\u2019 need to let the market know in advance by filling out a form.<\/p>\n
