Cardiff Market

Old school indoor market, very reminiscent of Shrewsbury. Great stalls and food offerings. Had a fabulous salad box and some the best welshcakes I've ever tasted. Bought some spices from the stall in the middle........ can't wait for curry night. Upstairs has seating to eat your food purchased from the stalls.

Loved visiting Cardiff Market. It has a great mix of food stalls, music shops, jewellery shops, and plenty of interesting little places to explore. The architecture is beautiful and gives the market a lot of character. There’s also a seating area upstairs on the second floor where you can relax and enjoy a great view of the market below. Definitely a must-visit place if you’re in Cardiff.

Discovered this market as we were walking around the city. An abundance of food choices, mostly with some shops, some enclose and other items. There are stores on two levels and there’s also an area where you could sit down and eat the food you purchased upstairs. A nice environment to take in different food choices and then relax and consume what you purchased. Recommend recommended.

Cardiff Market is a nice place to visit, especially if you want to experience a more local and traditional side of the city. The building itself is beautiful and has a lot of character, and walking through the market is pleasant and interesting. I loved taking pictures of everything, since it’s so cute. There is a good variety of food stalls and small shops, and it’s a nice spot to stop for a quick bite or to look around while exploring the city center. I liked the candy shop and the restaurants. I had lunch at one of the first ones and absolutely loved it. Some stands really stand out, while others are more average, so the experience can vary depending on where you go. Overall, it’s worth a visit if you’re nearby or curious about local markets, and I would say it’s a must-see attraction. It’s more of a casual stop than a highlight of the trip, of course. Still, it offers a nice glimpse into local life and culture, which I appreciated.

Cardiff Market is the true soul of the city centre. It refuses to turn into a sanitised, commercialised food hall, remaining fiercely independent and deeply proud of its working-class roots. Go for the history, stay for the street food, and leave without a handful of Welsh cakes and local crafted items.
