What User likes about Bedford Basin Farmers Market:
What a fun, friendly place! The assortment of herbs is wide-ranging and well-priced. Plenty of choices for olives, baked goods, veggies and meats, especially sausages and lamb cuts. Everyone we met was outgoing, helpful and knowledgeable about this mecca to Mediterranean foods. We'll return, if for no other reason than to sample the cafe offering coffee and desserts. View all feedback. What User doesn't like about Bedford Basin Farmers Market:
Looking for a few snacks, some fresh veg or maybe an ice cream cone plus more then this place is a great stop. Great selection of just about everything involving food. The prices on certain items can be on the high side. Also have an area to sit for some light eats or coffee with a friend.Great way to waste an hour on a Sunday afternoon. View all feedback.

The Basin Cafe, located in the renovated Basin Farmers Market, offers a variety of dishes with a view of the Bedford Basin from the upper dining area. While service is courteous and friendly, the food quality received mixed reviews, with complaints about oily pies and high prices. Some customers were put off by a no-laptop policy upstairs that was not clearly communicated, while others enjoyed a visit for the welcoming ambience, delicious scones, and beautiful decor. Offering fresh produce and international foods, friendly staff, and high-quality ingredients, it has quickly become a go-to spot for many diners.
