Newcastle’s WORLD FAMOUS Quayside Market In 2024!

[@SandraKing-k5w]

Brought back loads of memeries as I used to go there when I was a little girl in the 1960s with my Nana . Now live in the Midlands but Newcastle will always be in my Heart .

[@SandraKing-k5w]

Can anyone remember the man who used to escape from the chains he used to fascinate me as a kid

[@melonycrumpet]

Loved going to the market in the 80’s great to see it’s still there and doing well 😊

[@peterbix6552]

My dad had a stall under the Tyne Bridge selling trainers in the 80’s and 90’s. We used to buy all sorts and wonder around all day. I can also remember a bit of an indoor market half way along, if I remember rightly it said ‘The Clipper’ above the door.

[@stuartbey6912]

Must be 55 years since 0:15 I was last at the quay side market I used to be taken there by my parents, a family day out. lasting memory was the meat van putting together special buys and the auction van which used to put bundles of items together both were situated under the Tyne bridge.Another great video I know where I’m going next Sunday

[@TynesideLife]

☝️👍🏻

[@apollofitfreak3347]

Not been since the 80’s thought it was not in anymore - pleased I saw your video I’ll be having a visit - always loved going

[@simonhainsworth3490]

Another class video mate. Keep it up 👍🏻

[@petehandrick9408]

Great Video as ever . As exiles who only come now and again for football nowadays these vids are so good for memories of times gone by. I havent been on the market for a few years but back in the 80/90s i used to come up for the weekend and go see my Nana and my last chore before heading home on a weekend to Doncaster was to pop the market and go and get her some kippers . Good Memories and the modern style of the market does look lovely

[@seattlegeordie2614]

Left Newcastle in 1980. used to gan doon the quay when I could. I was younger then, I always loved it though. I remember hawkers selling their wares." Ladies and Gentlemen come see what I got". I remember vividly the last thing I bought there. A whole box (I think 48 bags to the box) of TUDOR cheese and onion crisps when I was visiting home around 1988? I know Tudor got bought out a later I believe. I will be coming back next year for probably my last time and definitely pop on down. Thanks for everything you (and the mrs do ).👍

[@TynesideLife]

[@gordy3714]

Used to love going there in the 80s and 90s for records. That warehouse across the road you mentioned had a big record store inside.

[@lesleywood76]

It brought back memories for me also used to go every Sunday with my parents, in the 60s, early 70s 😊

[@clairedobson2240]

Brilliant video on the Quayside market. Such a great vibe down there on a Sunday

[@steveii2485]

Another great video showcasing our fantastic region. We went down there a couple of weeks ago with the missus and the dog for the first time in about 30 years and loved it. Will definitely be going back for some of those sausages😍 !!!!

[@TynesideLife]

👊🏻👍🏻

[@alanjames272]

I vaguely remember part of it being indoors somewhere. Always used to go to the market to get cassette bootlegs of gigs we'd been to or missed. Memories.

[@xJorx]

Hey, make sure you wave when you pass the High Light and the Fish Quay on the ferry! There’s always people seeing off the big ferry and cruises, we all like to wave 👋 😊

[@TynesideLife]

[@ronwelford6896]

My mother father and brother came down to Kingston upon Hull just after the war and I was born in Hull every now and then we would go to Newcastle to see my grandparents aunts and uncles and cousin this was in the 50 and 6os and Sunday morning we would go to the market . I'm glad to see it still happens.

[@MightyMa9]

Cracking video Eddie! Spoke to you and Helen today, the lad in the big grey coat! Hope you both and the durgs had a lovely day! Thanks for the selfie too! 😃

[@TynesideLife]

[@Maxx-s7d]

Another top one ! Re Wardley I used to go to a Wardley infants school on the Ellen Wilkinson estate then onto the Old Wardley Junior school. I remember when Wardley used to have a Policeman based permanently on the Elen Wilkinson estate.

[@claremaidofthewave251]

Oh we missed you! We were down for the match and stayed over, breakfast along the quayside at Weatherspoon’s and a walk through the market. Loved the lady’s stall making the mosaic mirrors.

[@TynesideLife]

😫

[@RyanPhilips-x1i]

I could listen to both of you all day. I do love KZbin for finding different people with regional accents. I knew a Geordie couple back in the 90's called Brenda and big Joe. They were amazing, very funny and witty to chat with.

[@TynesideLife]

Thank you Ryan 👊🏻👍🏻

[@phillipwallace1178]

I used to go with my Dad(R.I.P) regularly a few years back, im a Dad myself now so a trip with the family will be had 😊

[@The_Robert.Fletcher]

That was excellent, being able to meet the stallholders.

[@jacquesvandenberg1873]

Loved the video! Thanks Eddy and Helen 😊

[@xJorx]

Only been to the Newcastle market once a long time ago, I used to also go to the Tynemouth market and I’ve heard the South Shields market is back, maybe? Markets are fun, I love to find little treasures

[@No.1shopkeeper]

Great content as always Eddie 👏 I remember the guys who would put a bundle together, electric goods or towels and they would have a crowd round them and they would say " £100 pound for all this ladies and gents, but I'm not going to charge you that, im not going to charge you £90, £80, £70 or even £50 who wants all of this for just £30........ great memories.

[@bobbrown5857]

Looking forward to seeing your future videos Eddie cracking to watch 👍

[@TynesideLife]

👊🏻👍🏻

[@mineshaft5604]

Love the Quayside Market due to my partner having her own market stall down there too! It's great! Great video Eddie, keep it up!

[@carolefelix]

I remember back when I arrived in Newcastle in 2010, the market wasn't doing so well especially in the autumn / winter period, I wasn't sure it was going to make it. But it somehow recovered and became huge ! The recently installed food corner is thriving now. David Nash's Leather is an absolute institution in the Quayside market, but I believe's he's been poorly for a few weeks now. Bought loads from him over the years. I remember the queue for the German Bratwurst nearby too.

[@TynesideLife]

Thanks for sharing Carol. I was wondering where he’d got to

[@reggiep75]

08:54 - The dog between you was thinking 'Can I have some?'

[@graemecatty9921]

Just what I was thinking.

[@TynesideLife]

😂

[@ryon1976]

Great video Eddie yous do Newcastle proud.

[@TynesideLife]

[@geordieal]

I used to love paddy’s market in the 80s. Full of knockoff Rubik’s cubes, Casio calculator watches, Geordie jeans, walkie-talkies and other stuff to spend me pocket money on! Oh and gourmet Westlers tinned hamburgers!

[@dazshotton2560]

Helens getting good with the KZbin! Another great video thank you

[@paulamaxwell776]

Love it . Hope to see you soon Eddy 🖤🤍

[@TynesideLife]

Thanks Paula 😊

[@graemebubs2344]

Went quite a bit in the early 80s. There used to be a stall that sold bootleg cassettes of live gigs from the city hall. They must have took a cassette recorder into the gig and recorded the concert, then made loads of copies to sell at the market. Some of the sound quality was shocking,but some were surprisingly good quality.

[@fLaMePr0oF]

Love these videos that give a voice and a bit of promo to local businesses. After your Granger market one we went and paid a long overdue visit there, now I feel a trip to the Quayside Market coming up soon!

[@TynesideLife]

Nice one ☝️ 👍🏻

[@carlrclayton1]

Thanks for the memories, I used to live in Byker in the 70's and my mum would take me down there every couple of Sundays, the biggest treat for me then was a ice cream cone with a chocolate flake in it. I used to have an ice cream regardless of the weather, then we would walk back along the river home. There used to be a art market on Jesmond bridge that we would go to as well, I wonder if that is still there. I moved to the states back in the late 90's and I'll be visiting Newcastle in the new year, first time I have been back since 98' I'm sure I will be in for a big surprise.

[@jonh1958]

Theres a food market there now with some crafts. Its on every first and third Saturday of the month.

[@gazzag72]

Great video Eddie 🎉 Me and Mrs G have started going most Sunday to support it and really enjoying it 🙏

[@TynesideLife]

☝️👊🏻👍🏻

[@maleltringham8157]

Used to go there early/ mid 60s. Can't actually remember much about what was there except the escapologist in a strait jacket & chains. There certainly wasn't the range of food stalls, maybe a Keenan's hot dog, burger cart though we'd usually be home in time for Sunday dinner by 1:30. Great to see food, arts & crafts & NUFC products thriving. Apparently there really was a Paddy's Market. (Remember yer mam "It's like Paddy's Market in here!!" when ye'd made a right mess.😂❤

[@leej8856]

Didn't the market used to bigger in the 80s? Also nice to see you walk through beat where I used to live, Bill Quay farm/ pelaw track. Hopefully we get to see a video on the history of that area

[@jacquiduffy9726]

I am sure one of those lads you interviewed was on Come Dine with Me a while back..great videos..love watching..

Last time i was in the quayside market was probably in the late 90s. It wasn't great back then, im back in Pomgolia next year. Perhaps we will have a wander around.

[@yelb9135]

God, I remember going down there from Washington in the early 90s! It looks brilliant today 🎉

[@jaykay5137]

I thought the market had stopped , never knew it was back time educate the grandkids now then , cheers for the info

[@paulashaw-sk1ek]

Brilliant been living London 40years never forget every Sunday Paula from heaton😃

[@robinlowerson565]

My memories of the 70s Quayside was the magic tricks stall, where you could buy stink bombs. We'd take them to school on the Monday to annoy the teachers. Oh, and always came away with a goldfish.Cheers Ed.

[@TynesideLife]

👊🏻👍🏻

[@Youtuber-ku4nk]

I was there last year when I was in Newcastle to watch the game against Brentford. I tasted lots of nice foods and different coffees.

[@RyanKing-h1k]

Loved the video Helen and Eddie, I need to get myself down quayside some point. Keep the videos coming Eddie mate best about. 🙌🇬🇧

[@TynesideLife]

[@nelzapoppin]

I used to visit quite often in the 80's and 90's. I remember a record/cassette stall where you could buy tapes from Mayfair gigs the previous Friday night. Hot off the press. 😊

[@stephenhaskins5736]

Geordie Bangers, awesome, had one of there sausage rolls in the Grainger Market.😊

[@geoffdundee]

Cheers Martin 👊🏻👍🏻

[@mreyes2575]

Blooming heck I've not been to the Sunday Market since I was a kid in the 80's ... What I mostly remember about the market was when everyone was closed up the amount of coat hangers that were left on the ground... Could of made an absolute killin selling them on if I thought about it at the time 🤔😁🤔

[@TynesideLife]

😅

[@Anita-gp1gv]

When my girls were fashionistas in their teens we frequently came to Newcastle Market , to buy them clothes at bargain prices. I bought a banging sleeping bag and it’s still going strong.

[@benthorne9919]

I love a Vegano burger or kebab, tastes like the real deal. They're in a converted horse box usually just by the swing bridge. Ran by a lush couple who run an animal sanctuary as well! Highly recommend.

[@ShanHetty]

Loved the quayside when i was little, been so long since I've been there, I now live in Edinburgh. I got my first dog Jess there when they used to sell pets back in the early 80s ❤

[@geordienufc3132]

Had a Geordie banger on the quayside back in Sept '23 when we were over there for a holiday and it was magnificent. I wish I could have brought a few pounds of them back to Canada. Geordie bangers will be our first port of call next time we come over and that will be followed with a peach melba.

[@TynesideLife]

Haha! Nice one ☝️👍🏻

[@michaellionart4841]

Yet another good video, thank you. Your trip to Amsterdam on the “North Shields Ferry” should be interesting 🤔 When are you walking the Tyne from source to mouth which you mentioned a while back? Or have I missed it😢 Controversially perhaps, my memories of the 70’s Sunday market are of stalls selling tat 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@TynesideLife]

Cheers Michael. I’ve pencilled in the walk for the Spring 👍🏻

[@michaellionart4841]

[@desmondrutherford7575]

Hi Eddy and Helen, Des here again, the Quayside market doesn't seem to have changed much since I was a kid, just the stores and the people. It is obviously a lot cleaner and safer than back then. My story goes back to the late 40's when I was about 8 or 9, I played hookey from Sunday school at our church (Bible education for young kids). Wandered around for a couple of hours not doing anything constructive, went back home and that was when I got into trouble. Remember this was in the day when a phone was for the rich people. It must have been ESP but my family, mainly my granny had heard about it, I got a licking from her that I still think about today. Corporal punishment was alive and well back then. Whenever I think about it, I can still feel her bony hands on my backside. Moral of the story, Don't mess with Granny. Thanks again for a beautiful memory of my Geordie chillhood.

[@TynesideLife]

Thanks for sharing Desmond ☝️👊🏻👍🏻

Hi Eddie hope you are well & the wife. This message is coming all the way from India as I watch your video. Am working here for two months. A live in Hexham now but love the different enterprises on the quayside. I remember going with my mam & grandmother in the 70s & buying things you didn’t need like a mirror with Coca Cola written on it 😂. Keep up the geordie spirit, I will be home soon. 👍🏆🖤🤍. Good week for the Toon as well
