Have you experienced live music at a farmers market? Until I stepped foot into the Texas Farmer's…read moreMarket, I had not. What a pleasant surprise! This was the largest farmers market I have visited in the Austin metroplex specifically in Cedar Park, TX. The vendors were so numerous that you could scan the layout via QR code at the market's entrance. The Texas Farmer's Market had everything you could imagine including composting, regeneration (learned something new), bread, bakeries, meats, just to name a few. Quite honestly, I was overwhelmed initially. Then I paced myself. The market had regenerative eggs. I asked, "how do you get regenerative eggs?" Apparently, you regenerate the chickens by allowing them to roam more loosely and changing their location approximately every 3 days...fascinating stuff! Like any farmers market there were a ton of samples. Surprisingly, there were very few fruits and vegetables. When we lived in Bellevue, WA virtually all the farmers market had mostly organic fruits and vegetables. Service by the various vendors were rather friendly. Next time, I need to allocate more time for exploring. Huge farmer's market...

On top of that you're paying for what is probably better in terms of ingredients used as well as time put into making whatever food/item you're purchasing. Definitely worth checking out! I'd highly recommend giving Mum Foods BBQ a try!

The market is generally located near the PetSmart parking lot, and across the street from Haverty's furniture. There is a lot of parking available, and it isn't on a too-busy street, yet convenient to major avenues nearby. Vendors range from fused glass jewelry and delicate pottery to honey and bee products, children's handmade clothing, paper works of art, ballcaps, bow ties and scarves for your stylish pets, Indian style bedspreads and tablecloths, and more. Check out the website for hours of operation and more.

I love the convenience…read moreof having a local restaurant/market, but unfortunately I've been vastly disappointed since it opened. I'll list some pros/cons and you can decide if you want to try this place Pros - Convenient location at 1431/Lakeline Decent food (when they get your order correct) Good quality items (when in stock) No waiting in cafe (at least for seating) Plasma TVs in cafe Very friendly staff - especially the manager Cons - Service at diner is SLOOOOW Every time I've eaten there, I've had to send my food back for a correction. It's weird because the MAX number of tables seated when I've eaten there is 3, so there's really no excuse here. Went in for Milk and lunch meat one day. They didn't have any 2% milk. -- This is a market, right? No sliced cheddar cheese??? Isn't this a deli?

I'm very pleased with their friendly staff. Everybody is so down to earth. Red Onion Market is a small private own market/food service. I don't believe it's designed to compete with big chain market on the pricing. It's for the convenience of the surrounding neighborhood. From what I can see(I go in twice a week to buy their salsa. Did I already mention they have great salsa?), the customers are quite pleased with this place. Personally, I live about 8-10 miles away, but I still manage to pay them visits on the weekly basis. I'm always supporting small businesses. So far, they haven't done anything to turn me away.

Echo what has been said before...CEDAR PARK!!! Lakeline Mall…read more.. Braved the visible haze of juniper pollen to visit the farmers market at Lakeline mall and all was good when I had an ample cup of Nita's hot chocolate and a tasty breakfast taco. Best hot chocolate that I've had, should have purchased a jar of fixins... I believe Nita melts chunks of Belgian chocolate and adds some white choc for sweetness and smoothing the edges. Took home some pork and green chile stew to consume on one of our upcoming chilly nights. I have made a similar veg version in the past and it's great on brown rice or for poaching an egg or two... Nita's version has tomatillo and poblanos... Got a bag of ginger snaps to have with afternoon tea... a good traditional g-snap anyway, I'm thrilled that Nita is doing the cooking for me

What a cool 'hidden find' in the Leander area!…read more It's a bit of a misnomer to call this a 'flea market', but that's a minor point to quibble over. Rather, this is a collection of rather eclectic shops selling mostly used or refurbished items. These range from vintage glass and antique furniture all the way to collectible baseball cards. Everyone I spoke to at one of the stores was friendly and sometimes willing to negotiate a price on an item. I look askance at some of the reviews which claim 'I didn't get a deal'. You have access to the internet, after all. Even on your smart phone. You should be able to find out if the vintage item you're looking for hasn't been cheaply reproduced at Hobby Lobby, Cost Plus or Michael's. The facility still seems to be in development, so a couple notes for folks who may visit close to when I did, in September 2017. 1) The parking lot is a very rough gravel one. Drive slowly and walk carefully, there are ankle-turning rocks here if you wear heels. 2) One of the vendors was having serious issues taking credit cards, so having cash on hand might be a good idea. 3) If you check in on Yelp, there's a free drink offer available at the food trailer. However, there's no food trailer yet - just a well-run inside snack bar. They were kind enough to honor the offer for me, but do them a favor and wait until they get a vendor in before trying to use the coupon. In sum, a definite place to visit if the antique hunting bug strikes!
