A thriving twice-weekly market in the heart of Bristol’s Temple Quarter. Located next to Temple Meads station and surrounded by a mixed community of offices and residential flats, it is a central part of life for the workers and residents of the area.

Our food

With Bristol's rich and diverse street food culture, the range of food to be found spans international flavours and classic British favourites. 

We’re dedicated to ensuring that every market offers a tantalising choice of different styles and caters for all diets – authentic Thai, Cantonese, Greek, Spanish and Malaysian, as well as food inspired by international travels, including Middle Eastern, Vietnamese, Texan, Korean – the list goes on!

Many stalls have been coming for years and have an established following, but we're always keeping an eye out for exciting newcomers from this constantly evolving community.

Why not help reduce waste by supporting the bring your own lunchbox campaign, supported by Redcliffe & Temple BID.

Located on The Square at the heart of the Temple Quay district, the market is just two minutes walk from Temple Meads station and a stone's throw from the eastern end of the harbour.

If in doubt, follow your nose…!

History of Temple Quay Market

One of the city's original street food markets, Temple Quay Market was established in 2012 in response to a desire from the business community to bring life to the area.  Popular from the outset, the market has built a reputation as one of the city's favourite places to enjoy an inspiring alfresco lunch with colleagues, friends and family.  

Initially a monthly market, it started out with a mixed offering with a range of lunches and food produce, but as the street food movement gathered pace in the city, this increasingly became the focus, and it soon became a weekly event. In 2022, it became a twice weekly market, taking place every Tuesday and Thursday. As the Temple Quay district continues to develop, the market has a bright future as a core aspect of the life and soul of the area.
