It's not a presentable building on the outside. But if you want to buy the entire product line of Adjara in one place, then you are here. Georgia has its own flavor, sociable vendors, delicious cheeses and meat products, a large selection of saya and spices, churchkhela, both local and Turkish (larger).On the second floor, you can visit a private cafe with homemade tea, kharcho soup, and kebabs. It looks modest enough, but the food is delicious. The only thing I don't recommend is going to the bathroom on the second floor. It's a terrible room!
I liked the market. It is much cheaper than just in shops or in small bazaars. For example, they took churchkhela in a specialized store for 4.75 (they explained to us that it was better not to take it on the market, the quality would be worse). We tried it on the market for 1.30 and it turned out to be much tastier and the choice is richer. Very tasty spices and very cheap. Lots of fruits, wonderful dried persimmons...If you have time, I advise you to visit.
I bought delicious fresh churchkhela before leaving, and there is a gorgeous tangerine honey on the second floor. We also served dried persimmons in several places, it must be chosen, somewhere dry, and somewhere very soft and sweet. The homemade wine is very tasty. Georgians themselves, as I understand it, drink dry white wine, but I still liked Khvanchkara the most.
Colorful. A huge selection of meat, vegetables, fruits and everything else, delicious cheeses. The sellers are very friendly. And they will feed and drink)))
And they even find out when you arrive a year later.
Excellent choice. Excellent prices. You can take a lot of things with you as gifts from the resort. Wine, spices, tobacco. Everything is delicious and fragrant.
You can't leave this place without souvenirs and hungry. The richest selection of souvenirs and at the same time at an affordable price (we have not yet met lower in Georgia). An amazing little cafe with the most delicious khachapuri boat is also located in this place. An excellent and varied selection of fruits and vegetables, as well as all sorts of things for tourists to use (from suitcases to beach towels). All the sellers are very friendly and positive, which I also really liked.
I got to the USSR)) It's cold, dirty, and expensive.
I bought cheese, fruits and herbs out of habit. Everything is delicious and fresh, but the same is in the store. And so for the feeling and sharpness of impressions, you can go to the meat department, it's interesting there)) I bought a giant radish, by the way, inexpensive for 1.5 lari, which is about 50 rubles.
An excellent selection of sweets, we bought here before leaving! The prices are lower than in the center, it's true. Churchkhels in the city are 4-5 lari, they bought here for 2.5. Very tasty honey and tea. If you take wine, look at the production time, sometimes old. There is a lot of choice, everyone will give it a try.
If you are in Batumi, be sure to visit the tourist market, there are few tourists, the Georgian flavor......
And be sure to bargain, they will sell you twice the market price.
Here you can plunge into the real Georgian hospitality, but do not forget that there is always one fool in the market. You can buy fresh churchkhela from Marie
You have to drive around the center decently, Sovdepovsky is a small market, mostly spices and teas, but there is a vegetable pavilion and some meat, at prices about the same as in stores
The market is old, very colorful and original. The sellers are very friendly. Prices are 2-3 times cheaper than in the supermarket. Everyone gives it a try. The only drawback is that you can only get there by taxi, which is not cheap if you go alone. It is better for tourists to go in a group.
The market is like a market! An abundance of vegetables, fruits and various products. We bought spices, fruits, vegetables, churchkhela, cheese. Georgian hospitality is felt. By the way, the wine and chacha that they sell there is not worth buying, then there is still swill. Wine should be taken only in bottles in stores or homemade only from friends. I took off one star for the fact that there is zero in terms of cleanliness and order. However, this is the norm for Georgians, as I understand it. But this disadvantage is covered by the generosity and hospitality of this people.
The market is great! Everything is there! It is necessary to bargain and know the average prices before going to the bazaar, oriental bazaar)) Go to the second floor, everything is the same there, but the sellers are more accommodating in places, since there are fewer buyers there. Marani Wine Shop is an excellent choice and prices! Don't take tangerine wine - it's a tincture))
A large market with a good selection of goods. Spice stalls are difficult to count (with different prices). A good selection of souvenirs (magnets for 2024 cost 2 GEL each). There is a large stall with wine (it is better not to buy wine without tasting). But I do not recommend buying fruits. Only grapes were eaten from a large bag of fruits, everything else was green or rotten inside.
A great authentic grocery market. A large selection of vegetables, fruits, spices, and spirits. Prices at mini markets in the city are about the same, but here you can buy everything at once, and not in different places.
The market is not big, but you will not leave there hungry, you can try everything! Very tasty wine, we scored a lot of everything. Do not be afraid to bargain!!
A huge market with local products!
It is necessary to visit it, at least in order to breathe in the local flavor)).
Before buying, you need to go through the market and find out the prices.
Otherwise, you can buy significantly more expensive.
Churchkhela, wine, chacha, seasonings, meat, cheeses, etc.
But it is better to buy seasonings by weight, rather than packaged. It turns out to be much cheaper this way. For example, 1 kg of suneli costs 7 lari, and in packages of 1-1.5 lari 50 gr.
If you want to see a real simple market, and not the fashionable name of the Market, you are here. It has the same atmosphere as 50-100 years ago, only the counters are being modernized. Although, in my opinion, everything here is at least from the time of the USSR. The smells are fascinating, as well as the variety and layout of the goods. Be sure to eat khachapuri to the right of the main entrance to the covered pavilion, which is prepared at home with real ones. The most delicious in two weeks of our stay in Georgia, and wherever we ate them, from cafes to restaurants.
The market is ordinary, dirty, with cockroaches))) there are not many tourists, we bought everything on the second floor, there are few people, many have stale goods. We stopped at Anna's shop, the churchkhela is fresh, the marshmallows are also good, the spices are good, we have already tried everything, the products are all good. I recommend this seller, who works next to cheeses.
Honey was bought on the opposite side from a man. The dried meat is excellent, bought from a man with the inscription "basturma, sujuk".
The prices are about the same for everyone, the same prices in the shops in the city, so they understood approximately how much everything should cost.
They did not take wine and chacha, they bought it in the store, in factory bottles.
A great place to buy souvenirs, as well as vegetables, fruits, dairy products and of course local wine. Sellers will be happy to give you a taste of everything. To see the local flavor.
You can come here hungry and leave well-fed and cheerful.
They treat everyone and everyone!
Welcome.
They don't bargain.
I took everything I bought home.
Delicious cheeses, sujuk, nuts.
Wine and peach chacha
Like it. The prices are low. The variety is huge. You can try everything before buying. There is a bargain for the entire range. Bargain. They are offended if they tried everything and did not buy it.
To be in Adjara and not taste khachapuri!? However, the best ones are right here! Don't be lazy, go to the market, the market is like a market, but behind an inconspicuous door, you will find a big surprise, a treat, a fragrant flatbread, an egg, cheese and a piece of butter!!! All this is only from the oven! Fiery hot and fiery delicious. One khachapuri and you can forget what lunch and dinner are until the next morning!) I recommend it!
Cheap and excellent quality. Svan salt is the best here. A large selection of greens, fruits and meat. In front of the market, grandmothers with local delicacies and gifts from their gardens.
Very tasty churchkhela and it is not as expensive as in the city, with a discount of 2.3 lari. Insanely delicious cheeses can be bought. And what spices, mmmmmmm. Smoked paprika is just flying away. And of course the rosebuds in the tea. I recommend
I put 3*, neither here nor there, I'll tell you now. The choice is actually extensive, the prices are often cheaper than in the store, but not always. Sometimes they come up with it out of your head, for 1 or even 2 GEL more than in the store. But you can search through other merchants and find what you wanted. And then one day I found a very nice woman from whom I bought everything I needed at once. I was satisfied with the quality at home, but... When I came the second time, some of the potatoes were put rotten, the third time I voiced it to her, the potatoes were chosen more carefully, I did not check for the rest, as a result, onions and carrots were almost immediately thrown away... After that, we decided to go to the store again, since there was something like a farmer's shop next to the house.
There are a lot of sweets on the second floor, they bought honey, churchkhela, marshmallows and gifts there, among others. There is also fresh meat and cheese on the second floor.
Worth a visit ! Everyone here is trying to persuade you to buy goods from them) they willingly give you a taste of everything they have on the counter ! (you can cheat, taste everything and leave))a joke)))
We bought a lot of churchkhela and spices in the gift - for about 500 lari ( about 15k rubles ) - so we tore up the gifts for another 5k rubles for sure! Charles Georgia is very hospitable ! We recommend 1000%
A good, large market where you can buy almost all products, everyone suggests trying it first. Moreover, there are 2 floors. There are departments with souvenirs.
The colorful market of Adjara in our beloved Sakartvelo🇬🇪 We definitely visit when we come to Batumi! Everything is fresh and delicious. And communication with Georgians is always positive and friendly, especially when they find out that guests from Belarus ✌️
Great place! Sellers are friendly and welcoming. Here you can also have a snack by ordering khachapuri or flatbread. A good selection of sweets, spices, tea, coffee, honey, vegetables, fruits and alcohol, in particular wines
A real Georgian bazaar. It is not possible to pass, everyone invites you to try and buy. A large selection of fruits, vegetables, sweets, spices, wine and more. I advise you!
We came by taxi to buy dried persimmons, honey, churchkhela, and at the same time to look at this famous market.
It reminds us all of the familiar markets of the 90s - early 2000s. The variety of products is not bad, you can find almost everything you need. The prices are about the following : dried persimmon 15 lari / kg, churchkhela 1.5 lari, corn 1.5 lari, cherries 6-7 lari / kg, prices for honey are different, we took buckwheat, I did not remember the price ..., prices for souvenirs are like in the shops of the Old Town.
We talked with the sellers, bought what we wanted, took a taxi and went home.
The market is not bad, it's worth a trip if you want to bring some delicious gifts from Georgia.
It's not a very big market, but you can buy everything you need, prices will be cheaper than in the city, but you need to be able to bargain. But the sellers' obsession is tiring.

Here for the spices. Geulni - she will be at the main entrance, she will put laurel leaves as a gift. Her son sells wine. It will be cheaper than at the central point with wine. They are examples of hospitality and friendly warmth. I want to return to them. Do not take blackberry wine on the market. It won't be the same everywhere.
You can park for free near the market opposite. You may have to walk 200 m.
There are also sellers on the rails. You can also get fruits and vegetables there cheaper than anywhere else. Example: sweet and sour pomegranates for 4 GEL. There are 10 at the entrance and in the shops.
On the second floor there are chickens, meat, cheeses and milk. I didn't like anything that was taken on the second floor.
But there is a good fish near the market. Fresh fish similar to sea bass, but half the size, costs 16 lari / kg. It's delicious to cook with herbs. From a wild catch. There is a Turkish one, but from fish farms.
And so the market is like a market from childhood. Once you stay, you won't want to anymore. It's a little dirty, then I want to wash up.
There are many products to choose from, polite, moderately persistent sellers, will treat you to all the goodies in order to accurately determine the choice
It's a bacchanal, there are no price tags, people are calling from all sides and pulling their hands, like in the walking dead. Inside are severed animal heads with fur.
You 'll come in and you won 't come out , as they say ) but you can buy everything, everything in general, and eat in addition, and you can also leave a lot of money, be careful) it's better to decide in advance what you want to buy, otherwise buy everything)
The main market for spices, wine, vegetables and fruits in Batumi. We bought spices here. There is no big point in going for fruits and vegetables. Not much cheaper than the stalls in the city center
A small market with two floors. On the second floor there are sausages, cheese, chicken, cottage cheese, eggs, fruits and honey. There are few buyers. On the ground floor there are wine, chacha, spices, tea, meat, ceramics. There is Georgian tobacco in front of the entrance. The cost of cheese is about 700₽/ kg. Prices are lower than in stores.
The market is like a market. If you want to buy Svan salt, go here. I highly recommend the grandmother (the second pavilion after entering the building). And so everything is standard ... meat, wine, chacha, vegetables, sweets.
