Rusty's Markets, open Friday through Sunday from 5 AM, is a haven for food lovers seeking fresh produce and delightful snacks. Patrons can indulge in gluten-free donuts from OMG Donuts, flavorful sticky rice wrapped in banana leaves, and grilled vegetable crepes with vegan options. The market buzzes with fruit and vegetable vendors, often offering samples of their goods, showcasing a variety of flavors distinct from supermarket produce. Along with artisan baked goods and refreshing sugar cane juice, Rusty's is a vibrant spot to support local farmers and savor the culinary diversity of the region—though visitors should remember to bring cash.

A must do for any traveller wanting to sample the exotic tropical fruits from the growers in the local area, Vegies also avaiable. A selection of amazing food from different corners of the globe is avaiable, plus a few coffee brewers the best i found was Barista sista located at the food end of the market. I had breakfast at La Creperie an amazing selection of sweet savoury crepes. Rustys Open Friday to Sunday. You wont regret the experience.

I recently visited Rusty's Summer Drinks with my kids and was impressed with their selection of cold beverages. Not only did the drinks keep my kids satisfied for a while, but I also appreciated that the frappes were made with fresh ingredients, providing a healthy option for them. The Mango Magic and Dragon fruit flavors were exceptionally delicious.

Great value for the money. The beverages are incredibly refreshing, especially on a warm, sunny day. The owner provides friendly service and even adds a cute drawing on the cup. I highly recommend this place.
