St George's Market

"A historic covered market in Belfast, known for its food stalls and vibrant atmosphere." - Aashna Gajra

"Once every season, St George’s Market opens its doors in the evening. Rather than its daytime focus on groceries and produce, the Twilight Market takes on a more grown up, sophisticated feel. Delegations from most of Belfast’s top restaurants set up stalls alongside artisan bakers, cheesemakers, and floggers of other delicacies. Live entertainment is also present, which is best enjoyed with either a glass of craft beer or cider or maybe a few glasses of wine." - MATADOR_NETWORK

"St George’s Market is Belfast’s last surviving Victorian covered market. Open Friday, Saturday, and Sunday mornings, it has retained much of its character as a traditional food and grocery market for the locals. While these people are well catered for at one end of the market hall, at the other end, visitors will find local craftspeople and artists selling their wares. The central area of the market, meanwhile, offers more artisanal food and drink, with Northern Irish and international cuisines being sold from adjacent stalls. The many antiques, books, and record stalls also deserve a special mention. Those wishing to bring back souvenirs from their time in Belfast are well catered to in St George’s, too. Tote bags and T-shirts adorned with local sayings and wisdom are particular favorites." - MATADOR_NETWORK

"If you prefer getting around by foot, head to the center of town to visit a community area beloved by those who call Belfast home. St George’s Market has been open as a market in some form since 1604. Don’t rush through: It’s a great way to spend an afternoon getting to know the locals, many of whom have been trading at this very space for generations. Visit on a weekend and you’ll be treated to live music performances."
