Our German Market is in full swing with all the favourites; Schokokuss, bratwurst, Bavarian Curling, beer, Stollen and lots of carefully selected authentic products. No need for the Eurostar, and parking is free.
Our staff are soooo excited that our cut Christmas trees have arrived-well Louise is particularly excited.
They look and smell wonderful and are really getting us in the festive spirit. Our top quality Nordmann Fir no drop trees range from 4 foot to 7 foot and are priced from £29.99 to £79.99. Can’t fit it in your car? No problem, we offer a home delivery service which one of our team will be happy to advise on. We also sell a range of artificial and potted Christmas trees, so something for everyone.
We look forward to seeing you at Meadow Croft
Opening hours:
Monday -Saturday 9am-5pm
Sunday 10am-4pm

Also look out for our festive late night shopping evenings when the whole store and restaurant will be open until 9pm
A quick reminder that Meadow Croft's Late Nights start tonight (Wednesday 20th November)...we can't wait. Featuring live performances from Rayleigh Brass, you can do some late-night shopping at both the German Market and the Garden Centre, then stop by the Market Tavern for a drink and a bite to eat
That industrious group at SWF Man Shed have made this fantastic Library for the Community Garden. It just keeps getting better down there.
Schokokuss or chocolate kisses are a festive staple in Germany and at our market.

What’s your favourite flavour? We know ours, let us know yours.
Today we will be taking part in the 2 minute silence at 11am to remember those who lost their lives in conflict.
Our late night German Market Experiences start this week, and it's free to park and enter!
