St. Nicholas Market or 'St Nick's,' as locals affectionately call it is far more than just a marketplace—it's the historic, beating heart of Bristol. Located in the beautiful 18th-century Exchange building, stepping inside feels like taking a delightful journey through the city’s past and present.nFrom the moment you walk in, the atmosphere is intoxicating. The air buzzes with energy and the incredible aroma of international street food. The food court is legendary, offering everything from authentic Caribbean jerk and delicious Thai curries to exceptional falafel and, of course, locally sourced treats. Every lunch decision is a fantastic struggle!nBeyond the incredible food stalls, the market houses a wonderful array of independent traders. You can find everything here: vintage clothing, unique jewelry, quirky gifts, vinyl records, and specialist goods like the fantastic collection at Face Soot the hot sauce emporium. It’s the perfect place to find a truly unique item or support a local entrepreneur.nWhether you're visiting Bristol or are a lifelong resident, St Nick's is an essential experience. It perfectly captures the city's independent spirit and diverse culinary scene. Make sure you set aside plenty of time to explore every winding arcade—you won't regret it!

My partner and I had a fantastic time exploring St Nicholas Market. It's an amazing spot to dive into a wide variety of food stalls – there are so many delicious options to choose from, and the prices are very reasonable. The market has a great, bustling atmosphere, though it can get quite crowded on most days. It's also a wonderful place for a bit of street shopping. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Bristol looking for great food and a vibrant experience!

Great market with a good selection of stalls  ranging from fashion, clothing, arts & craft, home style, toys, jewellery, ornaments and some fantastic food stalls. Can't resist getting something to eat every time. Freshly made and smells so good. Eat here rather than the usual boring chains, there's something for all tastes.

I absolutely love St. Nicholas' Market. It’s one of those places where every visit feels a bit different — packed with independent traders, quirky finds, and a real sense of local charm.nnThere’s always something interesting to discover, whether you're browsing vintage clothes, handmade crafts, vinyl, books, or just having a wander. The food section is fantastic — so many stalls serving up flavours from around the world, all freshly made and full of character.nnIt’s the kind of place where you can do a bit of shopping, grab a bite to eat, and support proper small, local Bristol businesses all in one go. A must-visit for anyone who wants to experience the creative heart of the city.

I visited the St Nicholas Market today for the first time! It’s absolutely lovely with loads of variety of food and drinks to choice from. I had The Ultimate Combo from Low and Slow and the Big Five from Big Juice. All 10/10!!nOnly thing is if you go for lunch which is when I went - around 12:30pm, it is quite packed and there are limited seats.
