Don’t miss Santa at Nantwich Market, 11am until 2pm every Saturday until Christmas from Saturday 21st November!
Here in Nantwich we are lucky enough to have a beautiful town, packed with an array of wonderful independent retailers. This year we are asking you to support these local businesses, especially at Christmas.
Whilst strolling around the shops you will find a variety of gifts for all the family, unique hand made items, the latest fashions and take time out to visit one the numerous Cafés selling home made food?
Nantwich Market boasts a wonderful selection of fresh produce, so why not stock up on those festive treats! You will find a great selection of cheese, fruit and vegetables, fish, meats and why not try something different this Christmas such as pigeon!
The market also offers an assortment of great gifts too from sweets, to children’s wooden puzzles, and car accessories through to baby clothes. You may even find those accessories you have been looking for that party outfit!
And talking of parties, are you looking to book an office party? Or maybe celebrate New Year’s Eve, our restaurants and pubs offer some great nights and the Civic Hall is a must for live music!
