Shopping Middelburg town centre has every kind of shop you…read morecould wish for. Dedicated shoppers know that shopping is not just about quantity but also about quality. Here again Middelburg scores high marks. In fact, it is one of the three most varied shopping towns in the Netherlands! Shopped till you dropped? Take heart, you just found the ideal excuse to take a break in one of the many small restaurants or pavement cafes. Middelburg town centre is a perfect mix of shops and refreshment venues. The shopping precincts The open air shopping precinct in the famous market square is characterised by the tall, impressive gables of the buildings that house the shops. Their elegant ambience combines with the pavement cafés to create an inviting atmosphere. The shops in the nearby Nieuwe Burg precinct also exude elegance and are where you will find, among other things, the exclusive designer brands for fashion and shoes. The Langeviele shopping precinct is the place to go for small fashion boutiques, designer furniture and gourmet snacks. Just behind Langeviele are Korte Geere, Lange Geere and the Geere Arcade. These are packed with quaint, specialist retailers offering furniture, flowers, kitsch and gifts. The best time of year to admire the Lange Delft is around Christmas when Middelburg's longest shopping street is beautifully lit up. The shops in Lange Delft are mostly branches of nationwide chains. The most surprising shopping streets in Middelburg are the small side streets off Lange Delft. These are Sint Janstraat, Herenstraat and Segeerstraat and are home to many original and exciting, smaller shops. Since 2005 Middelburg has also been home to a retail park outside the town centre on Mortiereboulevard. Here you will find the mega stores with a huge range of products from DIY through flowers and plants, furniture, appliances to every conceivable household item. Markets Middelburg's markets cater to food shoppers seeking fresh fruit, vegetables, cheese and fish, as well as to those in search of bargains or that elusive book to complete their collection.

I went there with some friends, one of them had been looking for a board game for years. A very rare one, impossible to find. Guess what ? She found it there for 14€ !

If you are moving, go and sell your 'abandoned' there. If…read moreyou just moved, go and get the best bargains in town. It is astonishing how huge it turns out. I have not seen this many people in Amsterdam since I arrived last year. Shirts price ranged mainly from 2 to 3 euro. And accessories can go as low as 1 or even cheaper, depends on whether the owner likes you or not. I got a painting for 1 euro. Another thing is be prepared how you got to carry your shopping home. Ahh, maybe you should eat before heading there if you don't want to be stuffed by patat. Such an experience in Amsterdam. For visitors and more for the locals. Get ready, once a month ONLY. The north is growinggggggggg.

I enjoyed a delicious Bara sandwich for the first time. It's a must try if you happen to visit the market. I also loved how the market is right in the middle of all these interesting shops, which is also worth visiting. The best time to go is probably on a Thursday,Friday, Or Saturday, then you have a choice of browsing through the market or shops , which is located right next to one another.

The shop is very well decorated and if you are into vintage styles this is the place for you. The stuff here is really nice and put together so it all looks so cool. When I go here I really want to buy a lot! Untill I see the prices... The tables, chairs, little paintings and vases are cute but they are so overpriced! I like hunting in thrift stores and on flea market and I buy my stuff for wayyyy less than they sell it here. So for me this place is for inspiration but not for buying. But since this is such a cute shop, they will still get my 4 stars. 3 stars is a bit to low for them. I can imagine you'll buy your stuff here when you are to busy to search markets and have a bigger budget.
