Cardiff Market, Victorian indoor market in Cardiff city centre, Wales.
Cardiff Market is a Victorian indoor market hall in the city centre with a glass and iron roof structure spanning two levels. The space contains numerous vendor stalls offering fresh produce, meat, fish, baked goods, and prepared meals throughout the year.
The market hall was built in 1891 on a site that has functioned as a commercial trading area since the 1700s. This location has remained central to Cardiff's commerce for more than a century.
The market brings together locals and visitors in a space where traditional Welsh food stalls sit alongside independent shops selling goods from around the world. The mix reflects how Cardiff residents shop and spend their daily time in this shared community space.
The market is located near Cardiff Castle in the city centre and is easy to reach on foot. Visit during daytime hours when stalls are fully open and the selection is at its best.
Several family-run shops operate inside the market for generations, including a long-standing fishmonger and a local deli business. These tradition-rooted businesses give the place a personal character you won't find in modern shopping centres.
