    Disappointing. More like a market than a car boot and to noisy with load music and butcher shouting over top of it.

    I went to the Tuesday Market it was buzzing, lots of good choices a variety of stalls. Including collectables, DIY accessories tools, really good fruit and veg stall excellent coffee. Hot food, plant stalls, people seemed to be soaking up the atmosphere, fresh meats and fresh fish something to suit everyone, really nice atmosphere.

    Overall I would have given it 1 star but for Chinese food stall which I would give it 5 stars on it's own food great cup of tea £1 everyone else was charging £2.50 or more stalls that are there every Tuesday were charging extra everything was too expensive except the Chinese stall + the £6 per person admission fee get your act together Melton Market or you will end up a Ghost Town like Newark on Trent

    The car boot is not as big and busy as it was before the lockdown, but it's slowly picking up and still bargains to be had...

    A real shadow of its former self. Some stalls just trying to sell junk others stalls trying to sell over priced items you can pick up cheaper on line. Credit to the organisers as they have tried to keep the place "Covid safe" but public not following distances rulea or face masks being used in enclosed spaces. A real shame for the county...

    Car boot is always good for food stalls and lots of things to look through. Farmers market is out of this world! Very interesting

    Had a good day at the cheese fayre that was held here. Plenty of stalls with different types of cheese at fair prices. Entertained by a gospel choir and Morris dancers will sitting in the sun enjoying a cold beer.

    No complaints about the stalls that were there and the quality of stuff being sold, but I simply can't give it more than 2 stars due to the outrageous £6 to get in, basically for the privilege of spending more money - and some of the stalls like Bowrings can be visited there for free on a Tuesday. Surely stallholders would pay a fee but customers should get in free?

    Excerllent but even better September to February

  • 5/5 Jayne Z. 2 years ago on Google
    Very well organised and excellent stalls. As a carer I was happy my brother was allowed to visit without paying.

  • 2/5 Jadiewades 8. 2 years ago on Google
    Over rated. I want to love it, but I've been a couple of times and come away with nothing at all. Alot of stalls selling the same things- all new goods obviously bulk bought (cheap) to sell on.

  • 3/5 Ian G. 3 years ago on Google
    I absolutely love this place,full of friendly folk & superb traders,but it has gone downhill massively when it stopped the fur & feather auction & sundries auction.it brought in so many people for these auctions that now don't attend,if management at market listened to the public it could once again be the best market in the country.reinstate it to its former glory.

  • 5/5 Emma A. 1 year ago on Google
    Lots of bargains and homemade produce.

    I went to the Choc fest at Stockyard Market. It was my first visit to Melton Mowbray on a coach trip but it was for Chocolate, so why not? There were plenty of stalls selling everything from toys to vegetables including a variety of hot food stalls. There were plenty of places to sit and eat and toilet facilities. I had a stroll around the main streets of Melton Mowbray but as it was Sunday there were not many shops open and it was very quiet. But it was a great visit and the market was awesome.

  • 5/5 David N. 1 year ago on Google
    Very Popular market. Ideal for food treats hot dishes to eat too. Great for special gifts and discovering lots of locally produced foods. Covered market with tables and seating. Great for Christmas shopping esp when it hosts the festivals.

  • 5/5 Shane R. 1 year ago on Google
    Went to check out the Food Festival which was hosted there, it was amazing and plenty of stalls for cheese and food to check out.

  • 3/5 Sue D. 5 years ago on Google
    Good to look round and find things you may need.

  • 3/5 nigel b. 1 year ago on Google
    Great market but disgusting toilet facilities really let things down. It's the same every week, toilet door in the men's is still hanging off after a month. The smell is over powering and the weather isn't warm yet,no soap in dispenser. Come on Farmers market get this sorted out!!!!

  • 3/5 Pete Wakefield - Stay Hungry C. 1 year ago on Google
    Great people, if you want a random thing, see what's up for grabs for cheap or some tools or to spend a morning meeting interesting people and having a banging bacon Bap then this is ideam

  • 4/5 Tracey E. 11 months ago on Google
    Nice Sunday car boot. £10 to stand which is more than other car boots but you can be under cover.

  • 5/5 Lisa W. 4 years ago on Google

  • 2/5 John F. 4 years ago on Google
    Going down hill, stall rent up, entrance fee up. The powers that be don't want it to survive.

  • 5/5 Emma M. 5 years ago on Google
    Good car boot where you can choose indoors or outdoors pitch, the only annoyance is the people trying to buy off you before you unload

  • 5/5 John S. 3 years ago on Google
    The Friday farmers market is great quality suppliers and products. The Sunday car boot spoilt by the number of people that can't follow a basic one way system put in place to protect us all in these difficult times. 5 stars for farmers market 2 stars for car boot.
