There are many markets in Cape Town, but one stands out head and shoulders above all others - The Old Biscuit Mill market in Woodstock. A wide range of food stalls, an excellent vibe, good music and did we mention the excellent wide range of foods?
Tucked away in Woodstock, one of Cape Towns poorer suburbs, The Old Biscuit Mill market has managed to attract the young and trendy Cape Town crowd in their droves with an atmosphere similar to Borough Market in London.
The food stalls represent a wide range of tastes from your standard sandwiches (nothing standard about them though), to Ostrich burgers, Greek kebabs, organic local foods, French food and a wide range of breads, cheeses and wines all locally produced in the Western Cape.
Directly outside of the market you will find a treasure-trove of homeware shops that sell those obscure and never thought of knick-knacks that you never knew you needed untill you saw them!
The market runs every Saturday what ever the weather from 9am till 2pm, be advised it can get extremely busy and at times finding a parking spot can be a problem so arrive early (before 10:30am) in order to get a decent parking spot.
