With its collection of odds and ends, it is sure to offer a range of gifts that the visitor never expected to find (including things like a cauldron!). <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Instead of getting your family the same, hackneyed gifts for Christmas, get an offbeat gift that suits their personality. The numerous goods sold here, are sometimes got in from auctions and at other times, antiques belonging to the 1800s or 1900s are passed down through generations. Typewriters, beautiful porcelain dishes, jewellery, instruments and records from the 80s are among the many things found here. <\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_35671\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"width: 4160px\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-35671\" src=\"https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/altcardiff\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2017\/10\/halloween.jpg\" alt=\"display of one of the stalls in Cardiff Flea Market\" width=\"4160\" height=\"3120\" \/><p class=\"wp-caption-text\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-35671\" src=\"https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/altcardiff\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2017\/10\/halloween.jpg\" alt=\"display of one of the stalls in Cardiff Flea Market\" width=\"4160\" height=\"3120\" \/><\/noscript> a stall called Alice in Wonderland<\/p><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Rose, one of the sellers with a stall called Alice in Wonderland said, \u201cRight now I have all my Halloween stuff up and later on, in Christmas I\u2019ll get these down and put my Christmas collection on display. I like staying in it. The market is beautifully decorated in Christmas as well.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Nostalgia Cafe run by Luke and Emma is another reason for the market to be the site of one\u2019s Christmas shopping. It serves breakfasts, meals, filled rolls,etc. It also puts up a set of snacks like scones and cakes that change everyday, true to the spirit of the market.<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_35672\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\" style=\"width: 4160px\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-35672\" src=\"https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/altcardiff\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2017\/10\/Nostalgia-Cafe-1.jpg\" alt=\"Nostalgia Cafe in Cardiff Flea Market decorated for halloween\" width=\"4160\" height=\"3120\" \/><p class=\"wp-caption-text\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-35672\" src=\"https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/altcardiff\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2017\/10\/Nostalgia-Cafe-1.jpg\" alt=\"Nostalgia Cafe in Cardiff Flea Market decorated for halloween\" width=\"4160\" height=\"3120\" \/><\/noscript> Nostalgia Cafe in Cardiff Flea Market<\/p><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> Emma said, \u201cIn addition to some of our homemade stuff, we have recently started serving Sunday Dinners as well.\u201d \u00a0The day therefore doesn\u2019t just stay limited to acquiring gifts for others but can also contribute to a family outing. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The market sells different goods each time and hardly the same thing twice. A customer is sure to find something that compliments their close ones as well as being a memorable gift. Perhaps that is where the essence of the market lies. <\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Cardiff Indoor Flea Market, tucked away on Clydesmuir Road, is a world removed from the 21st century.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":321,"featured_media":35673,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_exactmetrics_skip_tracking":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_active":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_note":"","_exactmetrics_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[18],"tags":[5854,5855,183,5856,5857,1636],"coauthors":[],"class_list":["post-35663","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-culture","tag-antiques","tag-cardiff-indoor-flea-market","tag-jewellery","tag-nostalgia-cafe","tag-porcelain","tag-records"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.2 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Find original gift ideas at the flea market - alt.cardiff<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"The Cardiff Indoor Flea Market, tucked away on Clydesmuir Road, is a world removed from the 21st century.
