Weekend Market
Parnell Farmers' Market
Every Saturday morning, more than 30 producers set up in the Jubilee Building carpark in Parnell, turning a weekly shop into something worth making a trip for. Stallholders bring fresh fruit and vegetables, free-range eggs, organic meat, flowers, artisan bread, deli goods, honey, mushrooms, and ready-to-eat food from kebabs to patisserie — all sold by the people who grew or made it.

What it is
The market has been running rain or shine since 2007, which gives it a settled, community feel that newer markets often lack. Regulars greet the vendors by name, kids make a beeline for the bakery and the popcorn stall, and a coffee from Aotea Coffee Cart keeps the grown-ups going while everyone browses.
It suits families who want a genuine farmers' market rather than a food-festival crowd — the kind of Saturday morning outing that doubles as the weekly shop and still feels like a treat.
What other parents say
This farmers market is on the smaller side, but there’s definitely an abundance of fresh produce available for purchase, along with some delicious-looking baked goods that are hard to resist. While everything looked high quality and beautifully presented, the prices were quite steep — we picked up a small jar of homemade Indian cashew dip for $17, which felt a quite pricey. Overall, it’s a nice spot for a quick walk-through experience and to support local vendors, but it might not be the most budget-friendly market around.
Super cute market, lots of fresh produce, ready to eat sausage, bread, pizza and stuffs.

Parnell Farmers' Market is a hidden gem in Auckland 💙 The atmosphere is vibrant, and the selection of fresh, locally sourced produce is fantastic. From organic vegetables to artisan cheeses and freshly baked goods, there's always something delicious to discover. Also, they have a fantastic craft market with unique, handmade goods. The vendors are friendly and passionate about their products, making the experience even more enjoyable. It is the perfect spot to grab quality ingredients and support local businesses. Highly recommend visiting on a weekend! So glad that I did.
The Parnell Farmers Market is my version of a small and close Matakana Market. There are fresh groceries, matcha, fresh flowers, food stalls etc. The vibes were great this morning!
I usually enjoy shopping at Parnell Market and have always been satisfied with the fresh products. However, this time I was disappointed. I bought some Envy apples from an Asian lady’s booth in the middle section of the market, but when I got home and cut them open, they were not in good condition. I chose Envy apples because I expected them to be delicious, so it was quite upsetting. I hope this was just an isolated case, as I really appreciate the quality of the market overall.
