With a huge array of food stalls as well as arts and crafts this makes for an interesting visit with locals obtaining their provisions to tourists looking for that souvenir of their trip there is something for all. The food stalls provide a variety of aromas and wide culinary options to satisfy most tastes and can be enjoyed either at one of the resting tables or seated at the bistro style tables. With some live music to add to the atmosphere this is well worth a visit to experience the venue, and maybe pick up some gifts or groceries.
Show more...We visited on a Saturday morning for breakfast.
The friendliness of all of the stall holders makes you feel very welcome.
We came primarily for breakfast
My wife had a Belfast Bap filled with sausage, bacon and egg which at £6 wasn’t cheap, but there was a lot packed in there
My £7 Lebanese wrap wasn’t cheap either but it was delicious.
There is a huge variety of none food stalls including bric a brac, art and souvenirs.
Worth popping in if you are in the area
Well worth a walk around if you’re in Belfast on a Friday, Saturday or Sunday. So much choice with food, crafts, some antiques and fresh fruit and fish. Stop and listen to the live music is good too, if you can find a seat :)
Show more...We popped in without much interest as so many places of this type have been a great letdown in the past . Not this market ! Plenty of stalls with different merchandise . Lots of stalls selling food, including a lady selling cakes mainly vegan ; delicious. Crafts including paintings including an artist selling fabulous paintings of pheasants and such . A stall selling tea towels of local interest , many jewellery stall and couple of bric and brac stalls. There was live music which set a nice scene . We came away with much and will certainly be contacting some of the stall holders to buy from them in the future.
Show more...We loved walking through the stalls here, in particular the art vendors. We loved the artwork by Glenn Thompson and R.W. Young. Both were extremely kind, informative, and welcoming. We enjoyed chatting with both respectively. Additionally, the pulled pork sandwich, BBQ sauces, and hot sauce from Lagan Ribs were absolutely fantastic! It rivaled pulled pork from Memphis, TN, USA!
Show more...Everyone said to visit St. George market while we were in Belfast. It's located 10 minutes away from city center. There is nothing " special" it's just an other another city local market with a lot small venues (most of them food) with all kind of food. Spanish food, Italian dishes, fish and bites. Be aware of your personal belongings because locals said there are many pickpockets in that area
Show more...Visited here on a Sunday. The market was busy mainly with people queuing for food. The stalls were nearly all arts and crafts with a few antique stalls thrown in. Very inflated prices generally so we ended up buying nothing. Only upside was that we had our first Guinness in Belfast at the upstairs bar where the staff were pleasant and helpful.
Show more...That was the second time we visited St. George's Market. We chose the day where there was lots of activities - Fridays to Sundays. The fresh fish mongers were very impressive with their fresh catch of the day and I have never seen such a variety of fish and crustaceans. Worth a visit and recommended.

If you haven't tried this restaurant then get down and give it a go! The food is amazing!! The service is so friendly and you have the option to sit inside or on the veranda and watch the hustle bustle of the Market. I have been many times and never left disappointed. Well done to the Chef and staff for making the best Christmas fayre I have ever had in a restaurant, definitely worth treating yourself before the lockdown begins!!

I found this market very interesting with lots of stalls selling varied wares. I didn't see any of the live music I'd heard so much about but the food stalls looked and smelled amazing and I had a very pleasant time here perusing. The only downside was that because the building is quite large, it has lots of doors and only one through which we could enter and we had to walk the whole way around the outside of the building in the rain to find it.
