Doncaster Market — Attraction in Doncaster

Some folk may think the market is not the same as it once was but I enjoy shopping here to buy fresh produce near enough twice a week. The fish and meat stalls stock an array of quality produce and an indoor stall sells herbs and other deli products. You don't have to pay supermarket prices for your fruit and veg either. You can call at a cafe in the indoor market near fish market ( I have a favourite but I'm not allowed to say) ... Google .(* I love looking at the vintage toys in the other indoor market or the second hand game stall but I have visited lots of the other stalls for services for example curtain making, key cutting, pet supplies too.)* SADLY NOW CLOSED FOR SOME KIND OF REFURB... BUT GO IN THE CORN EXCHANGE NOW TO LOOK, VINTAGE TOYS ETC IN HERE AND OTHER SHOPS TOO*The whole experience of chatting to the stall holders is something that money can't buy, you don't get that so much at a checkout in a supermarket. Keep the market alive and visit if you can, you can pretty much get everything you need to eat well and healthily without breaking the bank, it...

The ceiling and roof of this upper area is stunning and an important part of local history. Go see yourself, it's really is beautiful. There are frequently pop up second hand, car boot type selling stalls and other market events.

There really is a unique atmosphere about Doncaster market that you just don't see these days anymore. I love to wander round listening to the calls and shouts of market traders selling their wares. Definitely...

It's very sad to see the place at only half capacity, if that. Ofcourse there's your butchers, cheese, fruit and veg, people eating in the cafes. It was busy is I'm honest, but not shoulder to shoulder like it one was. For specific things like handbag, vapes, bits and bobs and garden stuff there's not a great deal else but definitely some good prices.

There's not really much reason to go in to town other than needing a wardrobe change or if I just fancy a trip out. There's no incentive to go to town, COVID and knocked people's comfidence, shopping deliverys have taken over and people would rather nip of over to their local butchers and grocers.

I would love to see the whole of Doncaster Market thrive. I can give reasons as to why it's not but unfortunately not a solution. I know money isn't the best right now and the online ordering/browsing...
