This Farmers Market was recommended to me by fellow Yelper Gareth H who lives around these parts…read more Ashton Farmers Market takes place on the last Sunday of every month, 9.00am to 3.00pm, although in hardcore market tradition the action is better earlier in the day, with packing up starting as early as 1.30pm or whenever the stall in question has more or less sold out of stock. The stalls are housed outside in the shelters that are otherwise home to the outdoor section of Ashton Market, and indeed the indoor market opens for the earlier part of the Farmers Sunday, plus there are a few of the three dishtowels for £1 outdoor stalls open and looking to cash in on some of the trade passing to the farmers stalls! While there are some good artisan foodie markets in Manchester, I still think Ashton Farmers Market is worth a visit from further afield. While there are good cheese and chutney companies and cupcake makers here, you can tell from the ruddy faces, manner and vehicles of the majority of the stallholders that these are authentic diversified farm businesses or at least rural cottage industries. There is an impressive amount of cooking done from scratch on grill plates and the odd chargriller fashioned from an oil drum cut in half! Vegetarian choice is at least adequate, I would say - even farmers seem to be moving with the times, or at least this forward-looking bunch have. Other stalls include a tea stall with urn (£1 a cuppa), seasonal fruit and veg straight from the farm, garden plants, hand knitted goods and some other random stuff, all of which are done with a lot more TLC than your average high street store. Business is brisk, I was pleased to note. Stating the obvious, but if it is a proper rugged Farmers Market you are after, you need to get out a bit from the centre of the city. For example, Ashton seems to be on a circuit of Farmers Markets which include Todmorden and Hebden Bridge. And there seems to be a similar circuit down Cheshire way, taking place once a month in places like Lymm. Do let me know if you have experiences of good farmers anywhere near Manchester or in Lancashire. If you live anywhere near, or are passing near Ashton and looking for a bit of local flavour, Ashton Farmers Market is definitely worth a visit.

Well that was an enjoyable couple of hours spent at the farners market today…read more There is lots of stalls at this one which is always a plus,and it was the usual fare,lots of nice looking cakes,some seriously good pies and breads,lots of meats,from the usual beef to wild boar and venison. We tried some seriously good cheeses making it hard to decide which ones to buy! The star of this market and any other market they appear at was Robinsons Bakery,seriously it should be made a crime to not buy something from them,their goods are so nice and they are such lovely people. Mrs Z bought some bread and a Manchester tart from them and I had a Vienese finger (ooer!) because they are seriously addictive! Also from the market we bought what can only be described as a slab of meat and potato pie and a walnut batard. It would've been easy to buy more stuff,but we would run out of room! Held on the last sunday of every month this is one Farmers Market that is well worth a visit....

Like Ange,i'm going to also give the market 3 stars,but only because the number of stalls has…read moredrastically decreased as the months have gone on (Not the markets fault) and not because what is on offer isn't good,because it is. Last sunday we came home with some flavoured loose leaf tea,2 really nice malteaser chocolate cakes,a vanilla slice,a smoked cheese and onion pie and a really,really nice feta and spinach calzone (Had it last night and it really was lovely!!). And to our delight the hog roast was back! There is nothing like a pork and stuffing butty at half ten on a sunday morning! Really,there isn't.. Hopefully when winter is out of the way the stalls that have gone elsewhere may return and any updates I do will also see the number of stars increas too..

The first Sunday of every month brings a touch of glee to our lives as we look forward to a…read morehangover cure of juicy, succulent pig from the hog roast stall at Royton's food fayre followed by tastings galore of yummy delights and the purchase of pies, cakes, bread and anything else that grabs our fancy...that is, when we actually remember it's on! This weekend we remembered and lured by the chance to worship the sweet, sweet piggy meat and to stock up the fridge, we set off bright and early. Imagine our horror then as we arrived to find not only the lack of roast porcine in a bun, but a serious lack of stalls! Undaunted we wandered through the throngs (well maybe throngs is an exaggeration) of shoppers, stopping at every stall to oooh and aaah at the epicurean offerings. Amongst others we sampled cakes, chutneys and beer and made purchases of hummous (delicious and spiked generously with garlic and lemon), vanilla slices (heaven in an iced puff pastry shell), cherry strudel (Mr Z said yum!), prawn spring rolls (yet to be tried), bacon, leek and potato pie (tea tonight) and some haloumi ('slight' addiction to this) We could have bought more, believe me I would have purchased the whole cheese stall if we had the fridge room, and we could have tasted more, but we came away satisfied. I will recommend the black peas and ham though,(it's a Lancashire thing!) doused with vinegar and black pepper they warmed the cockles of my eternally hungry belly and kept me from mourning the lack of pork crackling on a unseasonally sunny Sunday.

Found this farm shop and cafe by pure chance and it has quickly become one of my favourite places…read moreto eat a small snack or meal at. The farm shop is quite small but they sell their own beef (mince, steaks etc), lamb (chops etc), eggs, veg, pies (beef and cheese and onion), sausages as well as local preserves and chutney. Their main business is their cafe, which has a fantastic selection of small snacks (sandwiches, tea cakes, homemade soup, cream scones etc) to larger meals including salads, all day breakfasts, homemade beef and lamb burgers and daily specials. The food is all either from their own produce and meat at the farm or locally grown and sourced when possible. You can taste the difference and all the food is fresh and tasty. Their selection of cakes is fantastic, all home made and yummy. Last time I went they had crumbles, fruit pies, chocolate biscuit cake, sticky toffee pudding and many more I can't remember. But the one thing that I adore the most about this place is their own homemade ice cream! It is the best ice cream I have ever come across, it's not overly sweet and the flavours are great quality. The choice is huge and changes nearly every week but they can include: cherry and yogurt, strawberry cheesecake, sticky toffee pudding, hot cross bun, double chocolate chip, chocolate mint chip, strawberry, toffee fudge, sherry trifle, grandma's special (sweets perfect for kids), farmhouse vanilla, cookies and cream, liquorice... the list goes one. They also do sobets. As well as this huge selection you can buy cakes to take home, anything that's in the cake counter as well as homemade scones and cookies. It has a large outdoor area for kids to play with lots of toys and slides while adults can sit nearby in the sunshine watching the nearby cows and sheep in a field. The whole place just has a wonderful, friendly feel. Only caution I would suggest is if like me you don't have kids and like a bit of peace and quiet, either go early (before 12pm) on weekends and avoid on bank holiday Mondays as it gets very busy with families.

It was a pleasant visit to West Didsbury Makers Market, situated at Withington Community Hospital,…read morea few Sundays ago. The Makers Market can be found at various sport around Manchester on specific days of the month, and on the last Sunday of the month, it can be found here. As well as a variety of stalls selling homemade trinkets, and artwork, it had a couple of food vendors that are regular attendees at many streetfood / food market events across Manchester, such as Wallace and Sons, who sell one of the most delicious Pork Baos I have ever tasted, and What's Your Beef, who do an amazing Fiery Chorizo Burger. It also had a few other food options, so plenty to offer. Other stalls, included cheese vendors, pie sellers, chutney & marmalade makers, so again, plenty of variety, and sure to be something there for everyone. Especially The Weird & Wonderful Cheese Co, who have such a variety of "weird & wonderful" cheeses, from spicy cheese to fruity cheese. I recommend this, and be warned, you will probably walk away with half wheel of cheese when you visit. Definitely worth a stroll around when it is next on in West Didsbury..

I've been coming to Withington community hospital for Physio sessions recenetly but made a trip…read morethere for a very different reason last saturday. West Didsbury makers market captures the essence of all that is West Didsbury. It's the kinda place Northern Quarter folk will probably end up in their late 30's? Think Vegan prams and dogs doing yoga? Kidding aside this is a great little market, a slightly bigger version of the Levenshulme market, with local vendors showing off their produce. It's an eclectic mix of everything from animal charity stands, to hand made basket stalls and ofcourse plenty of foodie offerings. There's also live music and plenty on offer for those with a sweet tooth. Most of all the appeal lay in the sensational weather on offer. If anything it's worth just to come here soak up the sun and atmosphere. That's precisely what we did. To be honest despite all the delicious foodie stuff on offer I actually only bought some cakes. The place was far too busy for a sit down/enjoy your food scenario and our eventual decision to eat at Pomegranate turned out to be the right one. On a sunny day this place is ideal to enjoy an afternoon, followed by a meal at pomegranate and some drinks somehwere on Burton road. So come check it out, you won't regret it :)
