“It’s one of the best in England! I just go down there and walk around, buy dragon fruit, the missus likes it. It’s got bread stalls, cake stalls, stalls that sell all PlayStation and Nintendo games, lovely cheese, brilliant fish. Great market, man.”
Tom Meighan, Lead singer of Kasabian

	“Leicester Market is the heartbeat of our county and I’m delighted it has been recognised for such a prestigious national award. It is essential that we all support our local services, such as the market, especially given the current economic climate. I am passionate about Leicester and I’m proud to call it my adopted home.” Steve Walsh, former Captain of Leicester City Football Club
	“Leicester Market is a hugely popular service. It’s fun, atmospheric and diverse and appeals to Leicester’s wide demographic. Leicester Market is a real jewel in the crown.” Patricia Hewitt MP
	“I adore Leicester Market. I remember going there with my dad and sister and buying Cressy’s Peas. There was a sign that said, ‘North, South, East and West, Cressy’s Peas are the best.’ We still say that now whenever we have peas in the pod. The market is the heart of the city.” Andy Nyman, best known for Channel 4’s Dead Set and film Severance
	“You can’t beat it for freshness – and I always look out for independent shops. The quality of service is so much better. It is nice to have the human contact as well.” Town Crier Tony Green

“Leicester Market is a fantastic place to shop. There’s everything you need under
one roof, at affordable prices and you are supporting local traders and the local
economy. I absolutely love it there!”
Katie Benn, Leicester

“As I work in the city centre, I shop at Leicester Market most days, during my work
breaks. I love the variety of produce, friendly service and the fact that I always get
change out of a £10 note!”
Paul Dhillon, Oadby
