Saturday Fresh Market

Soufflé Pancakes: Delicious and so true to the real Japanese style! The pancakes are light, fluffy, and just sweet enough without being over the top. You can tell they’re made with care — every bite is a little bit of joy, and you never get that “too much sugar” feeling halfway through. The team at the van are lovely too, and everything’s beautifully presented. If you spot this food van around, definitely give it a try — it’s a proper treat and such a fun little find!

I think it was a better market before it moved across the road, but restricted variety nowadays. Occasionally you get some great plant sellers but it's hit n miss and some of the regulars prices are nursery prices. Plenty of food and coffee plus speciality patisserie too. Excellent variety of fruit n vegetable vendors but you need to look carefully as some fruit is on the turn already very soft etc and will need to be eaten within 24hrs!. However quality fruit can be had if you're careful. Generally there's good free parking and the undercover venue means rainy weather is not an issue. Grab breakfast and a coffee, get some fruit and a bunch of flowers - good morning!.

Always get great flowers here, always fresh and a great price. If you need flowers for someone this is the best place in Brisbane to get them.

Month of visit: March 2024 Went here last week for the first time and we love it! The market is huge, open from 6am until 12. There is a huge variety of fruits and veggies, they have foods also but as we were fasting so too bad we couldn’t try anything. They sells plants and flowers as well so not only groceries! (-): There is an entrance fee $2/person, children also pay. The place is a bit remote, although it can be reached by public transportation but the bus is a bit rare, make sure you check on the schedule.

Great food truck options. Fresh produce. Priced a little different worthy of walking thru and comparing prior to purchase. Can get a reduced price deal after 11 am on some of the produce. Food trucks close 11:45-12. Don’t wait too late.

If you keep your eyes peeled and know your supermarket prices, you can save a bit of money in fruit and veges. A decent range of food trucks. The Saturday Fresh Market also had the Garage Sale stalls today. Good if you like to scrounge or shop for some kitsch items, but not my thing. No dogs!

It's rather ordinary, other than the plants and flowers. There are some veggie sellers, butcher and street food. The street food looks pretty ordinary. The place gets pretty busy but as soon as 12oclock hits, everyone starts to pack up. Produce prices are good but not sure if it's worth coming here from the other side of the town. Entry ticket price is $2, parking can be free on the side area.
