New Bristol food and drink market to launch this spring

A brand new food and drink producers’ market will launch in Bristol this spring.

The existing Finzels Reach market is evolving to bring local food and drink to its Friday market while the Wednesday market will expand its street food offering bringing more stalls back as restrictions lift.

Customers to the Friday market can expect stalls selling local free-range meat, fruit and veg, freshly baked bread, pastries, cheese, as well as guest stalls selling dips, chilli sauces, fudge and cider.

Market Director Sophie Bowden says: “It’s clear that the pandemic has changed consumer habits and that working from home on certain days is here to stay, so we’ve used this change in momentum to reassess our market offering.

“I’ve always dreamed of having local produce showcased at Finzels Reach and now seems like the perfect opportunity.

“With residents living on site and nearby, what could be better than strolling down to Finzels Reach on a Friday lunchtime to pick up some local fruit and veg, a slab of cheese and a bag of your favourite pastries to enjoy over the weekend?

“And with the Wednesday market bustling with the best in local street food, Finzels Reach will be the place to be.”

The new producers’ market will take place every Friday from 11am – 2pm and each week the market will be curated to bring a diverse selection of traders showcasing the best in local food and drink.

The new producers’ market at Finzels Reach will start on Friday, April 1 with the usual street food market open every Wednesday lunchtime.
