READER’S DIGEST
St George’s Market, Belfast
Although St George’s Market as we
know it was built around 1890, the
weekly Friday market actually
dates as far back as 1604.
As one of Belfast’s oldest
attractions it has plenty on offer—
from freshly baked goods to newly
caught fish—and there’s a happy,
energetic atmosphere that
surrounds both the visitors and
vendors alike.
Live music from local musicians
floods the air as shoppers browse a
variety of speciality foods from
stalls such as Atlantic Ocean
Delights, who specialise in unique
seaweed based products.
For those with a sweet tooth,
Blackthorn foods offers an array of
delightful fudge, and you’ll find
fresh, yeast-raised treats over at
Doughzy Donuts.
