Woodstock

The Neighbourgoods Market

Saturday mornings, before the crowd thickens around eleven — this is breakfast-and-browse territory, not a quick errand. Come hungry: the food stalls outnumber the design tables, and a DJ set keeps things moving without turning it into a party. Good for a slow couple's morning or a solo wander with a plate in hand; less good if you're after souvenirs, since the shop prices skew high for what they are. Cash for parking out front, and go early if you want a table rather than a curb to eat on.

Park in front for 20 Rand.

Arrive early for breakfast to avoid crowds.

Get pastries to enjoy later; they travel well.

The shops are priced for tourists more than locals — skip them and stick to the food stalls, which hold their value.
