Edinburgh Farmers' Market - Edinburgh

P S.

Here is lovely, filled with fresh produce, fresh baked breads and pastries, cured meats, teas, hand-made soaps, jams, and hand made crafts. I had a great time walking through here, chatting with the vendors and I also saw a cute dog. His owner kindly let me take his photo.

The smoked hake was alright but very expensive, about 10pounds for 250g

The pulled pork was very tender and juicy, but rather expensive as well for 12. The crispy skin wasn't very good, it's very hard. Normally you have to request for it anyway so just dont

Strawberries were great from the grocery stall in the centre, could have been sweeter but were very juicy and large. The only problem with that stall is the rather confusing promotion, there's many different signs saying different things and apparently all of the berries can be included in the 3 for 6.8£ deal, including some of the other fruits, but only 2 out of the 4 berries have the 4 for 8£ deal

The belted Galloway steak really was quite good, it's extremely tender (so much so that I overcooked the cap thinking it wasn't done yet) and full bodied. However there's also a pronounced bitterness, not sure if it's just my problem but that really affected the enjoyment

Kedar milk really was something. No wonder they have a perpetual queue, come before 1030 for a shorter queue. One sip and you immediately can tell the difference between theirs and normal milk. It's got a very pleasant natural underlying sweetness, is full bodied, and creamy in a very gentle way. Absolutely delicious, high fat content but not off-putting in anyway.

The Edinburgh Farmers' Market is such a nice way to spend a Saturday morning. There’s loads of stalls with fresh local produce, baked goods, cheeses and more. The people running the stalls were super friendly and happy to chat about what they’re selling, which made it feel really welcoming. It’s not the cheapest place, but you can tell the qualities there. Plus, everything I've ever bought has been great. Definitely worth a wander if you’re into good food and supporting local makers.

Great little farmers market to enjoy before your tour of the castle or city. There is a bus stop nearby making it easy to gather your items and hitch a ride. Fruit is not so easy to come by in Edinburgh but there was plenty here! I went to the produce stand and got blueberries and raspberries which were so delicious. Definitely a different flavor profile than the ones you buy in an U.S supermarket. I also stopped by the dairy market and got some delicious milk. It is pastureized unfortunately but had an amazing
flavor to it as well. Lastly I stopped by the soap market and got some nettle soap which is great for eczema and other skin conditions. There were other amazing stands like fish, coffee, and handmade hats/scarves however I did not purchase any. Take a stroll through as you'll never know what you will find.

Small market with fresh produce but some lovely lunch options too. Friendly sellers.

I heard about this farmer’s market on a Saturday, so, I decided to go and see what it was like. I was impressed by the variety of stalls, especially the fruit and vegetables ones. They had what I feel real vegetables should look like!! Everyone was super friendly and helpful. The prices were lower than I was expecting and mostly grown locally. I will definitely make this a place to buy my weekly produce.

The market was not exactly situated where we were directed to but after heading deeper down past the theatre we discovered this quaint street market. We purchased excellent Scottish eggs and fresh fruit. Although a bit smaller than we expected, it was clean and a nice intro to Edinburgh. We walked after around the Castle’s base and started the Royal Mile.

I came from London to visit this famous market located behind Edinburgh Castle. I got an excellent low-roasted pork and coffee for lunch. I bought natural soap bars, and I pet some cute dogs 🐶 🙂🤗☺️
