Cardiff Market

This is a place I love! To just wander around, but especially to do my shopping.

There are 6 fruit and veg stalls full of delicious bright, fresh fruits, an excellent olive/nut/sweet stall, a beautiful loose tea stall, bakeries, book stalls, cafes, pet shops…

The best time of day to go for a bargain is nearing the end of the day 4pm-ish, When the vegetable shops are trying to sell off the last of their veg. Strawberries always seem to be really cheap at this time, but so are lots of other fruit/ veg.

The olive stall is more of a luxury for me but you can get a tiny or great big box of all sorts of delicious olives and garlics. Just make sure to say no fish/cheese. The giant liquorice is a treat that has to be experienced.

The loose tea stall (Gurmanotea) is a new one. Any tea lover in Cardiff has to visit. There are more than 70 types of loose tea, black teas, herbal teas, fruit teas, blends… with all the help you could want trying to pick the right one. AND the prices begin at just 90p!

Really, visit Cardiff Indoor Market, shop there, appreciate it, use it. We are so lucky to have it.
