Cardiff Market is so much more than what it seems on the outside. As described as one of its stall holders - Nick Spann who runs Bao Selecta - the market's newest tenant - it is a total "microcosm" of Cardiff with a vast selection of stalls that have been here for 50 years, five years, or five months.
Tailors, hat shops, electrical stores, a fishmongers, a record shop, jewellery counters, florists, butchers, bakers. And, of course, a myriad of dreamy food options, from street food tacos to traditional bacon baps. It's an utterly magical place in which you could easily and quite happily lose yourself for hours.
While there is an abundance of food options for hungry city dwellers and office workers - from The Sage Deli and Shan's to Clancy's and The Mediterranean Food Stall - in recent years, Cardiff Market has become home to a number of street food vendors, showcasing brilliant talent on the street food circuit and we are so delighted.
