★★★★★a week agoIt was a really nice walk although I did not buy anything from the market…It can be quite crowded at night. Food center however was not bad. Some of the food were really quite tasty and value for money. Overall it was more for the vibe! Come here if you have time

★★★★★3 months agoThis place is so great it's got great food drinks everything you need plus the best part of the whole Market is NeNe Royal.. the up and coming guitarist sensation. This girl has it all. She is the best I've ever seen and I have seen alot. The Ozone band is amazing. They are all teenagers but so talented. I cant wait to see them and hear them again ans again.
