Great place to get local fruits, vegetables, meats, spices, churchkhela, 🍯 honey with good reasonable price, Georgian pickles ect. I have lack of time to go around and due to my phone battery low, i could not take pictures around. However i got chance to take photo with my regular pickles seller the lady (got recommended by local shopper), you may find her infront of fruits and vegetables roll, inside the building and my regular local honey seller the gentleman, you may find him same building,one floor up on your right side. You need to keep Google translate to speak with them as they are Georgian and Russian speakers. Hope my review maight helps some who need.

Big and local market where you can find everything. Fresh veggies, fruits, berries, meats, fish, spices, dried fruits, local snacks as well as plants. We did enjoy shopping here and see how local markets work even though some shop owners aren’t honest about the prices, you have to be careful a bit since sometimes they can’t or don’t speak English and you might pay more expensive prices because you’re tourist but of course there are very honest, kind and good owners too like the woman who sells nuts in indoor market, she’s very kind and lovely, we bought many local nuts/dried fruits from her with affordable price. Overall worth to visit

This place is so much cheaper than any supermarket or vegetable/fruit store in Tbilisi, but of course there are some things you should be aware of: 1) Have your own scale - most traders have scales that doesn't show true weight, so you might buy one kilo of something and end up having 800 grams; 2) Have cash - card is not accepted in most places; 3) If you are a foreigner, they might try to overcharge you, so be alert; 4) I wouldn't buy cheese or meat here; 5) Sometimes they put good fruits above the bad ones, so dig in a little bit to check if everything looks the same.

A great market if you are a tourist and want to buy something or anything from Tbilisi.

One area of the market focuses on clothes, accessories etc and another has vegetables, fruits and other grocery items.

For an Indian like me, we even found an Indian and Madrasi Grocery Store. There is something for everyone!

The station square metro station opens right into the market, and the street lined vendors start selling to you immediately, along with people who will try to sell you fake...

Of all the farmers markets in the city (and we hit them all, I think), this is by far the biggest, busiest and more awesome in regards to shear action, noise, chaos, smells. Think of anything a human might want, it will be here, somewhere. Finding it is true adventure. Wholesale action (trucks, cracks) right beside retail action. Prices excellent, much better than Carrefour, Agrohub, Spar etc and quality/freshness very good as well. Perhaps better. You need to shop around as quality...

The bazaar was full of fresh food of every sort, and items beyond foods as well.

I found this market more chaotic than most "green" markets I have visited in the world and honestly left empty handed even though I passed some produce stands that had lovely peaches and some amazing looking tomatoes. By the time I had concluded I should get peaches, I had no idea where I'd seen/smelled the best ones.

Some positives include no smells in the fish part of the market (no idea how they managed...
