Reviews
"We love it here! The fruits and vegetables were very fresh and very affordable! You can find everything you want to cook here! There were also food and drinks vendors from different countries here as well! Highly recommend to stop by here if you are in town and have time on weekends!"
"This place is a must see. The variety of fruits and vegetables is amazing and I am so jealous we don’t have something like this at home on Sunshine Coast. The authentic food on Offer is so delicious and so hard to decide what to have that you want to have a bit if everything. It’s the closet thing to a Bangkok market as you can get. Love these markets and always make a point of coming here every-time I visit. Highly recommended."
"By far the biggest fruit and vegetable market around. You will find what you are looking for. Just be on the lookout as there are stalls selling old fruit. Also, a few souvenirs stalls."
"A local, tropical and permanent market. There's a wide range of items from meals, produce, baked goods, tourist gifts, belums, coffee and pastries. It's under cover and really large. There's street parking but also a car park with 2 hours free parking. We love the Thai salads, they are so tasty and are able to get amazing produce every week."
"Love this tropical market.. very similar to Sydney Paddys markets but on a smaller scale. Fruit and Vegetables are very fresh and love the tropical fruits that's available.Well worth the trip if you're in Cairns on a Friday Saturday or Sunday."
