Adelaide Central Market
150 years of South Australia's best produce, cheese, seafood and coffee under one roof.
About Adelaide Central Market
Adelaide Central Market has been the city's beating culinary heart since 1869 — 80 stalls under one heritage roof, selling everything from artisan cheese and Coffin Bay oysters to fresh produce, smallgoods and the city's finest coffee.
It is the perfect first stop in Adelaide for groups: a guided market tour with tastings is the most delicious introduction to South Australia's extraordinary food culture.
