Very colorful!
Of course, you will find vegetables, fruits, meat, Turkish olives, olives and very interesting characters here! Communicating with local people in the market is always a kind of experience.
All sellers with their own characters, who absolutely do not hide, you will be a boogeyman, can answer that it will not seem enough, and if a person is kind and fed and watered)))
You need to understand that this is a market almost in its original form, here you will not see order and a certain purity, not to mention sterility, so be careful when choosing products, do not hesitate to ask questions about freshness and quality and take a sample! Some moments may cause you to wonder, for example, how flour is sifted manually right behind the counters, but that's what Sukhumi market is like!
In summary, I want to say that together with the products you will get unforgettable emotions from communication) yes and! For lovers of spicy food, take the local adjika and red and green, it's a bomb!!! And don't forget to collect Turkish goodies)
I liked the market.A rich selection of fruits and vegetables, nuts. They make a discount. I visited a cafe where good women Galya and Mimosa work in shifts. 🌺 Excellent homemade burgers there, pies and coffee. I dined there every day. Everything is delicious, thank you!👍 If I come to Sukhum next time, I will go to this cafe again! And to the market too . The clothing market is also good, I bought a swimsuit at a lingerie store with a discount of 500 rubles and bought underwear cheaper too.😊
Close to the center. Noisily. Colorful. It is crowded, especially in the rows of tents and canopies around the market building itself. It's very crowded, although we went in on a normal weekday. It is unsafe - it is better to keep all your belongings, especially phones and wallets, in closed and secure pockets. In the market building on the 2nd floor there is a large selection of various spices, cheeses, flowers, honey, fruits, etc., etc. The eyes run away! I'm not sure that everything passes sanitary control, but that's not the main thing - but what a flavor, as if it appeared on the market back in the 90s!
Colorful, bright and interesting, noisy.
There are different people who told us everything about the product in a very interesting way, talked with us. Someone was rude, people are different.
In the pavilion where meat is sold on the 2nd floor, all meat is not stored in refrigerators, at the entrance the only saleswoman has a refrigerator, I recommend it.
Fruits were also taken from farmers, just on the way to this pavilion, but the prices say what they want, you need to be aware of how much it costs.
It is necessary to bargain unequivocally.
The market in Sukhum, like any market, is a point of attraction! The prices are the most affordable, there is a large selection. I really liked churchkhela! There were persimmons and tangerines in the season, 01.11-10.11. tangerines were bought at the markets for 300 rubles a week. You will be in Sukhum, be sure to visit it!
A place where every vacationer will definitely visit. We are here once a week, of course. Well, even more so before leaving. The fish is fresh, everything will be cleaned and told. The meat is also the freshest, yummy cheese, nuts, sweets, a local peach, the taste of which really depends on the place where it grows, olives in weight are always in one place, spices from baba Seda (be careful, grandma swears at everyone for nothing, so don't ask unnecessary questions), but she has adjika excellent, with the same taste every year. And, of course, wine! The price range is natural, but it's your choice. They give you tasting everywhere. Across the street from the entrance there is a store with alcohol and semi-finished products, and many other shops.
I constantly visit the market when I am in Abkhazia. Everything is beautiful and colorful.. A large selection of goods for any assortment. I mainly buy vegetables, fruits, herbs, spices, honey, cheese here
In the covered part of the market you can buy cheese, dried meat, fresh, sausages, spices, pickles, jams, sweets, flowers and souvenirs.In terms of sanitary conditions, not everything is good.For some sellers, the goods are not covered, flies crawl on it, they take the money with their hands and, without processing them, immediately grab the products. Downstairs in the shopping malls they sell clothes and household goods.
This is a market, you can find fruits cheaper than a, but you need to know the places. Some positions are more expensive than on the market, but otherwise like a regular market : hustle, bustle, unsanitary conditions, etc....
I decided to add it in half a year...
draft wine is on sale on the market. But I do not know how visitors determine which wine is poured, which one is in which plastic bottle... Sellers tell interesting tales about beautiful Abkhazian grapes and people take several bottles of different red draft wine in identical plastic bottles. But I'm not taking that risk)))
A market for the thoughtful buyer.
It is difficult to find Turkish things.
The market is like in the good old days. There are a lot of different and interesting things. You can buy souvenirs, gifts, clothes and groceries, all in one place. I didn't like the narrow aisles, insects on the products, it was a little dirty, somehow all in one pile. Prices are like everywhere else in Abkhazia, something is cheaper, something is more expensive.
For fans of a special chic market, the choice is huge. friendly people will help you choose special dishes for every taste for any dish, I recommend and most importantly vegetables fruits, all homemade
This year we visited this market, we can say that there is everything. The biggest impression is fresh fish! Mullet, mullet, loban, horse mackerel, mussels. The prices are quite affordable. In general, everything is great and the sellers are very polite.
I liked the meat rows the most: everything is always fresh, high-quality and appetizing! I remember the huge and absolutely harmless dogs that dozed peacefully in the aisles of the shopping malls in satiety - they always got something tasty!)))
I was not impressed by the market. There is no clear distinction, for example, part of the market sells products, part of manufactured goods. You go to the tray with vegetables, immediately with brooms or household chemicals and then again products. It's very inconvenient. We went to the vaunted cafe with chebureks on the 2nd floor, but the chebureks are delicious, fresh and the coffee is also normal, brewed on the sand. Interesting booths for 2 people, in general, compared to the market, I liked the cafe.
And the products on the market are the same as everywhere else. In the building itself, the first floor was given over to traditional products that would be of interest to tourists, such as cheeses, spices, etc. But everything is very similar to Crimea. We were in June, fruits, except peaches and nectarines, were very expensive. Strawberries, cherries for 350 rubles. Kg.
Prices are much lower than in stores, you can choose, bargain for a discount and all in a lively, good-natured conversation. The quality is clearly visible, you can try it. Of course, the products imported from Russia are expensive.
There is everything you need, like food (vegetables, fruits), honey, cheeses, adjika and homemade pickles, as well as a clothing market with shoes, household supplies.
It is better to go in the morning or before closing (during rush hour, too many people crowd into the already narrow rows of the market.
Prices vary and change regularly from sellers, apparently depending on the mood, weather conditions (weather dependence) and the degree of relevance of the holiday season))) They are traded (especially before the market closes at 16:00). However, some continue to work after 16. Monday is the market prevention day, but again, along its perimeter you will be able to buy the products you need anyway.
The assortment is not bad in general, you can find everything you need for life and nutrition here.
It is especially possible to highlight the store in the area of the 2a market:
1. Wet nurse (groceries, cheeses, milk, drinks, household chemicals, etc.)
2. Fresh (opposite the Wet Nurse): dried fruits, goodies, nuts, cereals, etc.
The market as a whole is very colorful and lively, have a nice shopping!
It's too crowded in the street section. The second floor is free, but more expensive. There are a lot of souvenirs, sweets, spices and other local goods. I recommend buying spices by weight, chacha and cognac on the 2nd floor. They sold body liquid on the street. I was surprised that for the third year there are no bells with the inscription Sukhum on sale. For a collector, this is a big minus.
You can find everything or almost everything! From olives by weight and fresh lamb to clothes and shoes of different quality. You just need to go around the big old building, where there is also a sale on the 2nd floor - dairy products and meat. Gypsies, Sukhumi coffee, tangerines and other seasonal beauties are included. I would like to comb it, of course, but the color will also go away...
Market.. the place itself means a crowd of people.. a huge cluster! I will not talk about sellers who cheat and push something in, everything is said in the word "Market"!!! But he doesn't have parking... there is simply nowhere to stand during rush hour, the courtyards of the pedestrian zone are full of cars, there were no parking spaces at 2 paid parking lots nearby... the streets nearby are dirty, garbage from the market is just lying on the asphalt. Put on sneakers if you're going to, not open shoes!!!!!! Of the advantages, you can buy homemade vegetables and fruits!) from the market in Russia, even figs are cheaper!)
The flavor of the country of the soul can be felt in this market. Convenient location, transport interchange (buses and trolleybuses come here). And you can also bargain, it's just one of the best stories)
A large, colorful market, prices in different parts may differ by 30 percent. In September 2024, eucalyptus brooms 50p/piece, hazelnuts 160p/kg. If you need gifts for friends and relatives (feijoa jam, tangerines, coffee, nuts, dried fruits and more), I recommend taking them here, the choice is very good, the prices are adequate. The market is much better than in Gagra. But after buying gifts, I took some fruits to eat (photo attached), washed them at the hotel and ate figs, plums and this Indian pomegranate. I was poisoned and rinsed for about a day. Before that, we bought fruits in the mountains and on the highway - everything is OK, but after fruits from the market there is such a story. The husband and daughter didn't eat them, they were fine.
The market for standard buildings is exactly the same in Moscow and was before the demolition in Kaluga.
That's why I'm always nostalgic when I'm here.
The entrance to the main hall is on a raised platform at the 2nd floor level.
It is not highlighted separately. That's why we found him a few years after the first visit. Everyone mostly buys in the rows around the building.
The usual market is like everywhere else, a large selection of everything you need. They took cheese, meat, fruits, etc. They didn't get poisoned. Prices are lower than in stores, but still not small. Cash payment or transfer. Since with a mobile connection (Russian, roaming), the best option is to pay in cash.
A wonderful dive into the 90s, there is almost everything from food to clothing and consumer goods, it's amazing, but you won't find such a trade organization here anymore. Only the Abkhazians do not want to change anything, the treasury is empty, no one pays taxes and is not going to pay them, and everything is fine, as they say - "We are poor, but proud."..
It's a very colorful place. It makes sense to just walk around to see. Be sure to buy something. Local cheeses, nuts and fruits of all kinds are simply plentiful. In January, insanely delicious tangerines at the price of forgotten times. You can see fish caught in the Black Sea on the counter at the entrance to the market. Churchkhela at every step. Fans of ruins also have something to profit from. The place is so multifaceted and interesting that it is safe to say that it is almost the only one of its kind.
An ordinary market, there is nothing super there, just like in any market, fruits, souvenirs, some clothes. The only attraction is Grandma Seda (they say the whole of Abkhazia knows her and not only) who sells spices and adjika. Our host, when he found out that I was going to Sukhum, immediately asked me to stop by her place
The range is wide, but many products are not locally produced. Cheeses, sausages, smoked meat are exquisite) The price tag is not cheap, even for local fruits and vegetables.
The market is good, there is everything and clothes and products and souvenirs at affordable prices. Everything is fresh, we went to the market every other day. They make pleasant discounts.
We really liked the market, the choice is huge, payment by transfer to a card is very convenient, we bought a lot of goodies, everything is fresh, the prices were pleased
A very large assortment of products and spices, you can bargain. A huge minus is a lot of garbage, there are also piles of garbage around the market. It is very difficult to find a parking place.
we visited it 2 times during the vacation period: the meat was taken on the second floor just as you climb the stairs. we took pork and beef, the kebabs turned out to be very good and soft. meat without the smell of an outsider. I haven't eaten such meat for 15 years, I can't compare it with store-bought meat. we bought peaches 150p for 1 kg, then found the same ones for 100p, very tasty. The cheese is good, the vegetables, the greens. In general, we are satisfied with the market.
It's a very chic market, it's like I went back to my childhood.
It is necessary to stop by not only for the sake of architecture, but also for fresh products, where everything is natural.
I love the market for :
A huge selection of fruits and vegetables
Prices are cheaper than in Adler
Products from the gardens of local residents
Dried meat is the tastiest
Bargaining is appropriate
And of course your favorite Abkhazian lemons
Be careful, they can easily cheat or pretend that they forgot to give change)
The market is great when you know where to buy, so that prices are lower than in the entire market. Parking attendants sometimes barge in and from those who do not know they charge 200 rubles for parking, in fact it costs 50 rubles.if they understand that you are aware, they do not argue.
The people are generally responsive. The prices are normal. Personally, we've done a lot of shopping. You can bargain. We bought all sorts of things as a gift home. You need to go if you're in Sukhum.
It's a great place. There are many things, prices can be found lower than in the republic. Parking is not very good. But there is a public transport stop nearby
We can say that this is a landmark of the city. It is impossible not to visit the market. And here there is a huge selection of products and flavor, and impressions))) if you are looking for fresh food, then only here.
Fire prices! Everything else is not.
It's dirty, smelly, sweaty, crowded, everything is narrow and many tents sell mega Chinese ultra junk.
1 star for a wonderful woman who sells wool products, somewhere in the center of the rows
2 stars for cigarettes at GREAT prices
3 stars for the sincere married couple from whom I bought chacha
I recommend it only to those who are patient and not squeamish.
And there is also a separate minus to the tent with glasses, where an unpleasant young girl works, who heaps insults (of an ethnic nature)
I recommend you to visit! Fruits, greens, water supplies ...
But, Turkish things are better and more budget-friendly to buy on the main shopping street ;))
Yeah, a real market!
The assortment is complete, from seasonings and churchkhela to homemade eggs and cheeses!
The prices will pleasantly surprise Russians))
There are also very decent branded shops with groceries and wines inside the market itself. I advise you!
The prices are pleasing, the service is like that of the most hospitable hosts. But dirt and lies are nowhere to be found. To cram a stale bun into you, you will be called "my queen" and lured with discounts, keeping silent about the baking date. They lie that they bake themselves! There is dust on the shelves. The seller collected the loose tea scattered by the buyer from the asphalt and put it back on the counter. Chacha has not been chacha for a long time, as well as wine is not wine. So think carefully before you buy something there
The market is big to go if you go for the first time only using the navigator, parking is paid 50 rubles at the Guys' market, you can buy here, Well, everything is simple, everything from outerwear, winter for the season, no swimwear, underwear, ending with the most delicious seasonings in the world, I bought cheese there, I bought adjika red green, everything is super look inside the market grandma Seda is a famous granny who makes these seasonings are generally super and dry and ready-made adjika chacha, too, if you take it from her, she does not dilute, does not dilute feijoa, I advise you, I do not know, I have not tried
Everything is mixed up in this market and clothes and pickles and adjika and kvass.. And souvenirs.
In principle, you can buy everything you need, there are just a lot of people (depends on the season, we were in August), a crowd, and you get tired of being there quickly
Like all markets, earlier in this market in the 1970s and 80s, people were kinder , sold their own, and now, under the guise of their own, Turkish vegetables are trying to cram in, and in mid-September, figs, which, well, at most for jam , stood in a pose and sold 450-500 , I just turned around and bought one and a half kg of fish And it's not bad either... They just started ripping people's money off...
It's not the first time I've come to Sukhum... and yes...I visit the market...and yes...I find what I'm looking for... I'm interested in watching the locals... and with the help of these observations, I know what kind of goods can be taken...since there is a product for guests (what they want) and there is a product that is purchased by locals...It tastes better
It used to be better, we constantly went to this market. Now prices have been inflated so much that you don't even want to walk. Moreover, smoked meat is 900 rubles per 1 kg, you can buy it at any local store for 600-700. I like the fish dot on the corner right now. Always fresh fish, mussels, smoked trout, but you have to go in the morning. Because everything is sorted out before lunch
The market is plentiful, there is a lot of everything, on the 2nd floor there is a large selection of prices, average,not very clean,a lot of imported goods,sellers are kind
