Free weekend market with South West artisan makers and local food and drink producers in the Melville Building at Royal William Yard.
The Good Food & Craft Market returns to Royal William Yard on Sunday 1 November, running from 10:00 to 15:00. It's become a regular on the Yard's calendar over the years, picking up a few event awards along the way, and this edition brings together some of the South West's best artisan makers alongside local food and drink producers. You'll find tasty treats, handcrafted gifts and fresh produce all in one place, and it's a good chance to support small local businesses.
This time it's inside the Grade II listed Melville Building, one of the Yard's oldest buildings. The market moves indoors during the winter months after spending the summer on the lawn and the main street, so if you've only ever seen it outside, this is a different side of it. The venue is dog-friendly, so you can bring your four-legged friend along for the morning.
Around it, the wider Royal William Yard works as one of the South West's best spots to work, relax, shop and play, packed with bars, eateries and shops, including Maison Pierre by Bistrot Pierre, which takes overnight guests. It's easy to make a day of it: grab some food and a few gifts at the market, then wander through the rest of the Yard. Just a heads-up on getting there: a new one-way system is in operation to manage traffic flow, and parking is limited, so it pays to plan ahead.
