La Cigale Market at Britomart

Expected more stands to be there but it was really nice! Perfect for tourists to see some local food and other products.

Visited the Saturday market with my sister's there was so much to offer from burgers, fritters, doughnuts to crafted soaps, hair ties to jewelry even fresh bouquet of flowers for guests to purchase. Honestly there was something for everyone's taste, and I definitely recommend you all take a look if you haven't already.

So convenient for me as I literally live up the road - the food stalls tend to be different sometimes from month to month but there are options for sure. Sweet As Crepes is my fave as is the doughnut stall. I've yet to try the stall that sells beignets so hope that'll be there next time I go. I've also been meaning to buy veges too so next time will need to take my grocery bag so that I can do a shop. The bread stall is also great and I think there tends to be two of those and I always get a fresh loaf or two and a French pastry. A new Filipino stall opened over the weekend this September called The Hub Eat and I strongly recommend you check it out! All the stalls accept card payment now so need to worry about ensuring that you have cash on hand. I hope they extend to an all day market at some point in the future. Was here last Sat and made a beeline for the Turkish food tent! Must be new because it wasn't there the last time I was here. Hands down the best falafel I've ever had and I'm probably going to go tomorrow so hoping I can get it again. Also ordered the lamb gözleme and it was good but didn't have enough lamb mince.

This market is a great event to have in the city. Very convenient location on the square next to grass. Plenty of food and drink options. My favourite is the Seafood or Mussel fritter and a fresh squeezed juice. There's also fresh fruit and veggies and honey stalls and several other interesting stalls. Once you've found yourself something to eat and drink there are several shared tables are available to sit at. If you want to get closer to the ground there also a number of beanbags available. Good on a sunny or cloudy day. Not so much when raining

I loved the jewelry stand by Kerry and was only able to get something to eat at the Turkish food stall...the falafel and the zucchini fritters were just amazing! I'll definitely return to this market on a Saturday as I was on my way to a cruise so didn't have the time to have a good look at all the stalls and their products! Great lovely market in the middle of the city on a weekend..I can't wait to see the next one!

I really enjoyed this wee market . Thanks to Paul the organiser . Loved the mussels fritters with a egg for ten dollars . Brought some oyster mushroom , go on train walk to this area . Nice

Quite a small market in Britomart. It is mostly food stalls so it would be a nice place to stroll while looking for something tasty to eat.

Great variety of stalls. Generous seating for groups. Best crepes ever! Nice way to spend a lazy Saturday morning having a late breakfast.

There are some interesting food stalls we can try the food for free. A good place for family although it's not big market.

I had a wonderful time here..Perfect for a Saturday morning brunch or breakfast..so many things to choose from! I had an amazing ginger latte and a my chocolate croissant..Would definitely try something else next time!
