Market City
The Market City offers a unique shopping experience
Located in Chinatown, directly above the famous Paddy's Market, Market City has everything you would find in a major shopping mall, but with a more vibrant market atmosphere.
There are three levels of shops and services at Market City including a Food Court, a Chinese Restaurant, a Supermarket, and a large indoor amusement centre. In total there are over 170 shops and services including 30 factory outlets offering something for everyone.
If you happen upon Market City at the right time you may even find some great entertainment happening in the centre court (see video under the 'Photos and Video' Tab). Together with Paddy's Market, this is definitely one of Sydney's top shopping spots.
Nearby attractions: Paddy's Market, Chinatown, Powerhouse Museum, Capitol Theatre, Chinese Gardens and Darling Harbour.

Market City Reviews
Rated out of 5![]()
The new food court (lower level), if you want to call it that, is very nice. Lots of different options. Something for everyone's taste. A bit dark, but reasonably quiet enough. It is next to other Markets, produce stands, as well as souvenirs shops. Highly recommended!! Not only for the low prices, but for the experience as well. I love visiting these shops.

Market City is such a fun place to visit in the heart of Haymarket. It has a great mix of outlet shops, Asian supermarkets, and plenty of food options. Paddy’s Market downstairs is always buzzing – perfect for fresh fruit, snacks, and souvenirs. The centre itself feels clean and well looked after, and the dining area upstairs has some really nice Asian restaurants. It’s also super easy to get to by train or light rail. A good spot to shop, eat, and explore if you’re around Chinatown!

Market City Shopping Center has great souvenirs at better pricing than you'd find in other areas of Sydney. We bought so many "gifts," we had to buy a large duffle bag with which to carry our gifts. There're also specialty stores and restaurants throught the 3 levels. We made a day of it and had a fabulous time with all the friendly people there!

This is the place for deals on almost everything from food to gadgets and clothes to massages plus across the street is a few hundred dime in and take away food choices. I just like hanging around and enjoying the food and drinks.
