Customer Reviews
Incredible amount if stalls plying different items. Mrsp & me went to Keswick market (08/11/25). Couldn't get enough of 'Pie Demand'!. Bought 2x Cheese, Onion & Chive. 2 x Scitch beef, 2 x Meat & Potato Pasties & 2 x Chicken & Mushroom Pies. Got home & Mrs P had the Cheese & Onion & I the Meat & Potato pasty. Seriously filled & seriously tasty. £22.00 for 8 x Pies....well worth the price. These are filled to the brim & taste fresh. Market stalls are clearly the best place to buy local produce. Yes they may be slightly more expensive but there's a valid reason for this...they're100% proper Pies. 'Pie Demand'...you won't regret it!!! 10/10. 👍
I love keswick market. Such a lovely high street with plenty of variety. There's some lovely bakeries and shops with some unique items which I love! My son loves going here every year when we visit to feed the pigeons. We visited a couple of shops this year which id highly recommend which is the Lucy Pittaway gallery, they had some lovely items & also the 'alternative' shop. That's my favourite shop in the whole place as they always have great stuff & beautiful gifts.
Enjoyed wandering around this traditional outdoor market. It stretches along Keswick's main street on both sides of the historic Moot Hall on Thursdays and Saturdays between 9am and 4.30pm. I came on a Thursday, when it was busy but not uncomfortably crowded. Liked the fact that this area is pedestrianised too. There's a wide variety of stalls, ranging from everyday items such as clothing, leather goods, household linens and tools, to beautiful and unusual Lakeland crafts including wood carving, jewellery and slate ornaments. One stallholder was hand painting wildlife images on feathers. Some of the merchandise was expensive, but the craftsmanship looked of a high standard. Some really good food stalls too. I especially loved the cheeses, honey and homemade preserves. The stallholders were very friendly. Lots of cafes, pubs and nice little independent shops around the market.
