Island Markets


Island Markets in Moonah is an undercover market housing a small selection of stalls (naff crafty stuff, some overpriced flea market things, plants, eggs + honey, handmade chocolates) with a fruit/fish/meat section (the live fish in the tanks are a huge hit with the kids - both big and little!) and a fantastic liquidation outlet selling clothes, DVDs and books. I can't go in and leave without a new addition to the home library! There's also a manchester liquidation outlet which I haven't yet looked at.

The fruit and veg section usually has some great specials on a few things and always very competitive prices on everything else. There's also a cheese store by the carpark entrance (Wicked Cheese Co.) which does a mean chilli camembert!
A fun outing, some good shopping, books agogo... if only there was some lawn outside for the restless toddlers, you could make more of a day of it!

Where: 54-56 Gormanston Rd, Moonah (accessible from the Intercity Cycleway)
