The opening hours are roughly Monday to Saturday, 9.30 am to 5 pm. You will see small-scale, independent retailers selling everything from salt lamps, copper rings and paintings to fridge magnets, ceramic crockery, wooden cheese platters, chopping boards, artistic aprons and more. If you're looking at picking up meaningful souvenirs for your loved ones, look no further than the covered market at St Nicholas. From healthy juices and coffee to Italian pasta, Moroccan and Turkish specialities and Mediterranean salads, there is something to suit every palate. Choose from comforting pie and mash from Pieminister, spicy Szechwan noodle salad or rice meal from Chilli Daddy, filling and fresh Persian wraps from Matina, churros from La Lola, flavourful tacos from Taco Barrio, luscious cakes from Crafty Beans and more. Dating back to 1743, it has both outdoor and covered markets full of stalls and tiny shops. In the heart of the old city, St Nicholas Market, also known as St Nicks Market is a place to appreciate historic Georgian architecture as well as enjoy retail therapy and delish street food from world cuisines. The location is the real hero of the stay you're right in the middle of all the action! The rockets are ideal for couples and solo travellers. You can grab your lunch and dinner at St Nicholas Market which is right across the guesthouse or at one of the many independent bars, cafés and restaurants in the neighbouring streets. Think homemade granola, French toast, a hearty English breakfast, yoghurt, berries and more. You can enjoy a delicious, fresh, continental breakfast, with ample vegan and vegetarian options, in the dining and lounge area of the guesthouse which is a quick tumble down the stairs. Every rocket is well-lit and equipped with a sprung mattress, towels, TV, kettle, a small seating area, a selection of tea, coffee and biscuits and an en-suite bathroom with a blissfully-powerful shower. They come in three different sizes - 16ft, 18ft and 20ft - which means you can pick the one that fits your budget and preference. Besides being uber chic and sassy, they are also quite spacious and comfortable. The British-made rockets or gleaming silver aluminium shells are designed to look like vintage caravans and evoke nostalgia. Don't want to stay in a typical hotel? Retro Rockets, sitting on the rooftop garden of Brooks Guesthouse in Bristol's Old Town, are your best bet for a unique glamping experience.
