Welcome to Altrincham Market
A Charter market since 1290, Altrincham Market
is one of the town’s oldest attractions and still
maintains a loyal fan base today. For others it is
a hidden gem yet to be discovered and this website
has been designed to give a flavour of what is on
offer, inside stories about the traders behind the
stalls and details of events and special
activities during the year.
The Market offers good quality fresh local and
speciality produce, a great range of other goods
and individual products at competitive prices.
Many of the traders have been at the Market over a
long period of time, know their customers’ tastes
and preferences and are happy to offer tastings
and samples on a ‘try before you buy’ basis. They
are able to provide good advice based on years of
experience, sound knowledge and a belief in their
goods and produce. Most stallholders have a great
rapport with customers old and new and build up
relationships over the years that keep them coming
back.
There are stalls on the Lower Market with its
entrance on Shaws Road and in a Victorian Indoor
Market Hall and adjacent glass canopied Market,
both accessible from Greenwood Street and Market
Street. The Greenwood Street toilet facilities
will be available on Tuesday, Friday and Saturday.
With its heritage, friendly, relaxed atmosphere
and the enthusiasm of its traders, Altrincham
Market’s setting in the Historic Market Quarter,
gives visitors a shopping experience with a
difference.
