For some reason the photos this guidebook have provided don't do this market any justice at all. while one corner has fresh groceries, the market it self is a very modern and large selection of local designer clothes, artisan food, breakfast options, live music and art. same goes for the Queen Vic market in the city. Recommend looking up what's happening at both while you are here!
