North Berwick Farmers' Market

Last updated 15 May 2026

East Lothian's coastal market, held monthly in the seaside town of North Berwick. Benefits from the same productive agricultural hinterland as Haddington — excellent seasonal vegetables, free-range eggs, and local dairy — with the addition of seafood from the Firth of Forth fishing boats. The town itself is one of the most pleasant in the Lothians: the beach, the Scottish Seabird Centre, the Bass Rock view, and a high street with good independent shops. About 40 minutes from Edinburgh by train (direct service from Waverley). A proper day out rather than just a market trip.
