Stockbridge Market
Last updated 15 May 2026
Edinburgh's Sunday market in the Stockbridge neighbourhood — smaller and more villagey than the Castle Terrace Saturday market. Runs every Sunday year-round in the Jubilee Gardens beside the Water of Leith. Mix of food producers, street food, and craft stalls. The food offering includes artisan bread, cheese, olives, charcuterie, cakes, and seasonal fruit and veg. Popular with Stockbridge and New Town locals. Less tourist-heavy than Castle Terrace, more neighbourhood feel.
