Reviews
Bought a pork roll from the Vietnamese stall near the entrance, very disappointed, the salad they put in the bread roll probably only one third of what you can get from other places, not much meat as well, avoid it. The market itself is a good place to walk around at weekend morning, lots of things to see, but hard to find ‘hidden gem’ nowadays.
Small but mighty! A great selection of vintage and new items. I appreciate that there were only 3 food vendors, neatly tucked awayI had a delicious lunch from a place called Himalayan I was looking for jewelry, clothing and other interesting finds and found exactly that. If you're looking for produce or other edible options, this is not a food focused market. Bring cash!! Besides being the best way to support small business, some vendors were not set up with electronic payment options. There are also plenty of shops and cafes on the main street if your shopping itch still needs scratching. Try C'est Bon for a delicious cappuccino and french apple pie.
Disappointing Experience at Rozelle Markets – Concerns Regarding Racial DiscriminationnnSaturday, 17 October 2026 Approximately 12:00 pmnnI am writing this review to express my disappointment and concern regarding an unpleasant experience with a stallholder named Wendy at Rozelle Markets.nnI have been an interior stylist and international product buyer for over 35 years, sourcing antiques, vintage objects and decorative pieces both locally and internationally, including in Los Angeles, New York, London, Paris and Hong Kong.nnOn Saturday, 17 October, I visited Rozelle Markets, as I regularly do, to search for vintage treasures and purchase props for my work.nnThe stallholder in question, Wendy surname unknown, operates a stall on the left-hand side of the markets when entering from Darling Street, directly behind the Rozelle bus stop.nnUpon approaching her stall, I picked up a small plastic basket and began selecting vintage button cards. I collected approximately 24 cards, with a total value of $36.nnWhen I politely approached Wendy and handed her the basket, she appeared visibly unhappy with my selection. She put the basket down, raised her hands to approximately waist level and said:nn“WHAT ARE YOU DOING WITH THEM?”nnFollowed by:nn“I CAN’T BE SELLING THEM TO YOU IN BULK LIKE THIS.”nnI found her tone, body language and reaction extremely unpleasant and unnecessarily confrontational.nnIn over 35 years of buying from markets, antique dealers and vintage suppliers around the world, I have rarely encountered such an unwelcoming response from someone operating a retail stall.nnAs a paying customer, I do not believe I should have to justify what I intend to do with the items I purchase.nnFurthermore, I question the reasoning behind describing my purchase as “bulk buying”. Had 24 individual customers walked into her stall that morning and purchased one button card each, would that also have been considered bulk buying?nnWhat concerns me even more is that this was not an isolated observation.nnOver the years, I have regularly visited markets very early in the morning, sometimes arriving around 4:45 am or 5:00 am, when antique dealers and regular buyers are conducting their business.nnDuring these visits, I have personally observed Wendy being exceptionally friendly, welcoming and accommodating towards certain regular Caucasian antique dealers, appearing more than happy to negotiate and complete early-morning in the dark transactions with them.nnHowever, in my experience, her attitude and body language appear noticeably different when interacting with Asian buyers, including myself.nnI have witnessed what I perceive to be this difference in treatment on numerous occasions over the years, and unfortunately, I have personally experienced similar responses from her.nnThese repeated experiences have left me feeling that I have been treated differently because of my Asian background. I find this deeply upsetting and believe it raises legitimate concerns about racial discrimination.nnAustralia prides itself on being a multicultural society, where people from all backgrounds should be treated with equal dignity, courtesy and respect.nnMarkets such as Rozelle should be welcoming environments where customers, collectors, designers and antique dealers can enjoy discovering and purchasing unique items without feeling judged, intimidated or discriminated against.nnI sincerely hope Rozelle Markets management will take this complaint seriously, speak directly with Wendy regarding her conduct and investigate whether customers are being treated fairly and equally.nnMy intention in sharing this experience is not to discourage people from supporting Rozelle Markets or its many hardworking stallholders. Rather, I hope management will address these concerns and ensure the market remains a respectful, inclusive and welcoming place for everyone.nnDiscrimination, whether intentional or otherwise, should never be overlooked.nnThank you for taking the time to read my concerns.nnKind regards,nJez
Good local market. Lots of variety. Lots of clothing.nMoney machine on the main road if you need cash when stall holders dont have eftpos.nPlenty of cafes on the main road to visit.nOr, 12 mins to the Sydney Fish Market
Limited food options but many things to look around! Had so much fun
