If you’re in the mood for some serious market browsing (or just after an excuse to eat your body weight in baked goods), look no further than Real Markets in Ilkley. Happening on the first Sunday of every month—except for January, when we’re all still recovering from the holiday food coma—this delightful market runs from 10am to 3pm, with an extra festive edition in December, because who doesn’t love shopping for artisanal treats while sipping hot cocoa in the cold?
Real Markets have built quite the reputation for their vibrant, welcoming atmosphere and top-notch stalls. It’s like a treasure hunt for your taste buds, but with the added bonus of arts, crafts, and homeware that might tempt you into redecorating your living room (or at least adding one more candle to your collection). From delicious food to unique crafts, you’ll find something to fill both your belly and your soul.
Let’s talk specifics: we’re talking brownies so good they’ll make you forget about your diet, bread so fresh you’ll be tempted to eat it straight from the bag, and organic meats and fish that scream quality. Fancy something a little cheesier? There’s plenty of that too. Pretzels, pizza, pies, and puddings—if you can name it, you can probably find it here. And just to keep things balanced, there’s also fresh fruit and veg on offer (although we both know you’re here for the brownies).
But it’s not all about the food. Real Markets in Ilkley also feature a wide variety of non-edible delights. Think hand-crafted candles that smell so good you’ll want to eat them (but please don’t), jewellery that adds a little sparkle to your life, and fine art that might just inspire your next home project.
And the best part? It’s all free! That’s right, no entry fees, just good vibes and great finds. So, if you’re looking for a fun, laid-back way to spend your Sunday (and let’s be real, who isn’t?), make your way to Ilkley for Real Markets.
See you there—brownie in hand!
