I ended up in Truro during my trip to cornwall rather by accident when i took a ride on the wrong bus! but i'm very pleased i did XD. When i got to truro as the next bus wasn't for a little while i decided to make the most and have a look around as Truro seemed like a nice little town. Right up the top of the town past your usual chain stores i found happy piranha and its right up my street! The staff was very helpful with giving me some directions for my activities planned the following day, but best of all was all the cool stuff they had inside. I purchased a couple of boardgames to take back home as presents and got a few candles for my friends back home who are really into harry potter. Will definitely plan an actual trip to truro next time i am in the UK when i visit with friends in the summer now i know this place is here!

Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 35 reviews
The white and green striped stalls of Truro Farmers Market are at the grassroots of Cornwall’s culinary scene; come and discover the best produce our county has to offer! Soak up the smells of freshly baked bread and smoked fish, rows of perfect blue duck eggs, preserves in a rainbow of colours and cakes to make your mouth water. A friendly welcome is guaranteed from the traders, some of whom are truly artisan in scale and others who are courted for their produce by the famous chefs of Cornwall and beyond. As well as the weekly markets on a Wednesday and Saturday, Truro Farmers Market also ‘pops up’ in Falmouth on the pedestrianised area known as The Moor every Tuesday.

Great range of local products and always such a friendly buzz around the market. Always toping up my Gin collection from Elemental Cornish Gin and kimchi from Delea Fermented Foods! The range of fresh food is always a challenge to choose between.

This review is mainly for the butchers. We've bought lovely cheeses and delicious bacon (how it should be, thick and full flavoured, not full of water). However, their sausages are the best I've ever tasted. Make sure you try em out at Fodders cafe just next door which is also amazing!
