Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

What travellers are saying
- BayleyAuckland Central, New Zealand24 contributionsThe markets are on both Saturday and Sunday. We went both days, it’s the same each day. It is really cool - set in the historic part so even just walking around is cool. The market itself isn’t huge and I found a lot of the stalls weren’t great for foreign tourists. Still fun and there is a seating area under the bridge for food. Good morning stroll.Written 2 December 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Michaela L1 contributionA great local farmers market with the best fresh fruit, baked goods, meats and cheeses. Most are from farmers and there is a genuinely great vibe! You can also grab coffee, fresh juice and many other breakfast and lunch meals from the vendors. Highly recommend!Written 13 September 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Mairwen1United Kingdom11,690 contributionsThis Kings Cross market is more ‘foodie’ than farmers. There are a few produce stalls but not enough to warrant calling it a framers market. Mostly it’s food stalls which suits me because we like to wander through on a Saturday morning, choose something from one of the stalls for a late breakfast, then find a seat over in the open grassy area.
In the past we’ve had the paella from the Sofrito Paella stall ($15) and the fritters at CornStars. Both stalls are still there and both were very good.
Today I chose a large chunk of Greek style spinach and feta pie from Birgitta ($10). The slice was so thick it took two hands to eat it and the ratio of spinach filling to pastry was very generous - delicious! Couldn’t resist a piece of passionfruit curd cheesecake for taking back home ($7.50).
The market costs mainly of regular stall holders so if you find something you like, you can pretty much rely on it being there next time you visit.
Apart from food, there is a small handful of other stalls, including jewellery, honey, pet goods, a couple of clothing stands, and flowers. The flower stall normally deals in roses, gerberas, orchids, and natives. Today there were chrysanthemums, and large bunches of beautiful ghostly grey eucalypt. The various pink shades of gerbera caught my eye so I bought 2 bunches for $15 (plus an extra $1 of you use a card - but who doesn’t these days?).
The market runs from around 8/9am - 2pm, every Saturday in the small Fitzroy Gardens park. You’ll find it just behind the famous El Alamein Fountain.
NOTE: there used to be a Sunday market here too (it has a TA listing under ‘Pott’s Point Sunday Market’) but this no longer operates.Written 27 January 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

On the plus side thre are some great stalls selling artisan cheeses, the Scottish butcher (this is the only place I can buy haggis and black pudding!), the chop shop, which sells amazing free range pork. The is more good than bad, but I confess recently I've been disappointed that the organic veggie stalls seem to have disappeared. Perhaps it's temporary, but since that is my main reason for shopping at farmers markets I am less enthusiastic to go to this market. I end up spending more money than I'd planned on lots of delicious but perhaps not entirely necessary things! Hey ho, that's what markets often are .. If you want a pleasant shop, it's worth a visit. If you are doing your weekly shop, maybe Carriage works or my favorite, the Frenchs Forest market on a Sunday is a better bet.Written 15 October 2015This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- travellingwoodburysSydney, Australia354 contributionsA very small market with a bit of variety. There was fresh produce and locally manufactured food products and gifts. A selection of food stalls to grab something and sit in the park enjoying the sunshine. A relaxing way to spend an hour or two.Written 16 October 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- AdM85Sydney, Australia197 contributionsThis is a real hidden gem. Beautiful shop with a huge range of products. Everything looked so nice, it was hard not to buy half the shop. The staff were lovely too.Written 5 April 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
