The world's only regular Slow Food Market. Held at St Nicholas Market on Corn Street on the first Sunday of every month, the market features stalls of fresh, local food of the very highest quality.

Now the largest food market in Bristol, its undoubted highlights include artisan bread from the Thomas Bakery, the lush Chocolate Workshop, top juices from St Nicholas Market stars The Big Banana, the almost legendary Pieminister Pies, Ginger Gallery's sensational brownies, organic meats, locally grown veg and much more.

This is the place to find out what south west food is really all about.

Reflecting Easton's eastern outlook is The Sweet Mart. Bills itself as the largest supplier of ethnic foods and spices in the south-west, something confirmed by its well-stocked shelves.

Downstairs there is a bar and cafe with a decent menu to choose from and bean bags to recline in. Upstairs there is exhibition space for artists and a theatre. On the third Sunday of every month there is an ever popular market selling local and organic produce. Architect George Ferguson's salvage and renovation of this building has done a great deal to revive this part of south Bristol. A great place to visit for those with an interest in urban regeneration or who may just fancy a bevvy.

A perfect place for lunchtimes. During the day the glass arcade section of the market offers up an array of choice food. There's a cheese shop, Carribean food, Portuguese, Indian, Italian, Morrocan, a decent juice bar selling açai, two good deli counters and well sourced bangers and mash. Inside the market there's an unpretentious greasy spoon knocking out bacon sarnies. A number of independent traders operate in the market including Payback Records which has an impressive selection of reggae and jazz on vinyl.

Enter via Corn Street, High Street, All Saints Lane or Saint Nicholas Street.
