SPARK in York and Herbert's Yard in Birmingham were placed third and fourth - ahead of the Glasgow venue.
A spokesperson for Betway said: "There's no doubt that the UK is a nation of food lovers.
"With half of Brits buying from a street food van at least once a week and 17.2 million posts under '#streetfood' on Instagram, this appetite has fuelled a boom in food halls. But where can the UK's best food halls and markets be found?
"To find out, the team at Betway has measured the social media popularity of 40 UK food halls, as well as their Google rating and search volume, to determine which food hall is the nation's favourite."
