- Christine ILinlithgow, United Kingdom38 contributionsGreat produce and knowledgeable friendly suppliersEnjoyable visit 2 weeks ago and did quite a bit of shopping for food (cheese, fruit & veg) and some lovely Jersey cow tea towels and cards. Everybody was really friendly. Great selection of cheeses at Relish Delicatessen. Greatly appreciated the knowledgeable, friendly advice and the cheeses and other products we purchased plus local knowledge of places to eat.Visited September 2023Travelled as a coupleWritten 1 October 2023
- Gary S574 contributionsSt Helier walking tourSt. Helier We caught the number 12a bus to St. Helier from St. Brelade which was an interesting 30 minute trip cost £2.70 each one way. It was good to walk the many squares, see the shops, a visit to Howard Davis Park and a coffee break at Tiffin Bistro by Du Gruchy store which is well worth a visit as well. A walk around the harbour finished our 4 hours and then the bus back to St. Brelade Bay. Make sure you have a map.

- Trine F3 contributions... a spot of lunch from the bakery in the middle of St. HelierWe had yet another lovely holiday in Jersey, staying in St. Helier. As always a trip to the market was near on daily for the bakery, their pasties and pastries are delicious, stick to the Vienna bakery, (the other one has a problem with keeping the food hot, a potensial disaster if you choose a pie and definately nasty if you choose a sausage roll). Several really lovely stalls in the middle of the market with fresh produce, flowers and more. More stalls and small shops, amongst others a quirky antique shop with a huge amount of beautiful items. A craft shop, a cake decorations shop, a chocolate - sweet shop, a good few cafes, a couple of interesting gift shops, a lovely wine store and more. The overall atmosphere is busy, but you can find a spot to sit down on the benches along side the market or at the cafes. The architecture has been upkept with painted wrought iron gates and bars around the whole market and just the lay out gives a good vibe. Worth a visit for sure.Visited April 2024Travelled as a coupleWritten 13 April 2024

- ChilldoubtLondon, United Kingdom87 contributionsTraditional, pretty and for everyoneA really great local market with fruit & veg, butchers, bakers, curiosity shops and flowers - which can be boxed and posted home. Lovely to look around and stop for a light lunch, snack or smoothie. What I like is the variety of each type of outlet at different price ranges, something for everyone. Elegant, restored old building with a central water feature - it’s very nice. Give it your custom, the stallholders work hard and it’s a fantastic asset. I really don’t understand the 3 star reviews complaining it’s not massive or a Mediterranean market?! It’s a lovely town market on a small island and just as nice as it can be.Visited August 2024Travelled soloWritten 22 August 2024
- Sammy-ventures69 contributionsA must visitSmall victorian indoor market with a lovely flower stall adding colour to its surroundings. Plenty of stalls from home made chocolate to bakers and must say that Bloomers bakers have the most tastiest cakes and pasties you could ever imagine and at decent prices too. We also tried to have lunch at Casa Paco, but no joy, as it was packed and there were also more people waiting to be seated. The food looked amazing from their tapas to their risotto, we did look at menu and reasonable prices too.Visited September 2024Travelled as a coupleWritten 9 September 2024

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

No visit to St Helier is complete without popping into this perfectly preserved covered market. With its ornate wrought ironwork and central fountain, the market is a Victorian gem. It opened in 1882.
It's not just for show. Fruit and veg prices here are much cheaper than in the town centre supermarkets. The market is also home to several very tempting cafes, a stylish tapas restaurant - Casa Paco - and the excellent Vienna Bakery.
There are entrances on Halkett Place, Beresford Street, Hilgrove Street and the picturesque Market Street.
The market is closed all day on Sunday plus Thursday afternoons.

Bloomers bakery..need I say more?! Fantastic value, queues out of the door but worth the wait. £2 baguette sandwiches! Where can you get that?! Bloomers that's where! Tasty, good value and a St Helier gem hidden in the market. We stumbled upon Bloomers on our first day and went back numerous times. Lovely friendly staff too.

A really great local market with fruit & veg, butchers, bakers, curiosity shops and flowers - which can be boxed and posted home.
Lovely to look around and stop for a light lunch, snack or smoothie.
What I like is the variety of each type of outlet at different price ranges, something for everyone.
Elegant, restored old building with a central water feature - it’s very nice.
Give it your custom, the stallholders work hard and it’s a fantastic asset. I really don’t understand the 3 star reviews complaining it’s not massive or a Mediterranean market?! It’s a lovely town market on a small island and just as nice as it can be.
