The market runs from 9am till 2pm. It might just be the fanciest of markets in the city, so don’t go expecting the “flea market” vibe. All the stuff is great quality food, that will not go unnoticed that night at the dinner party.

The meal costs a pretty standard R59, but in most buffet situations, you fill up pretty quickly as you always attempt to eat your money’s worth. The food’s great, and the activity is endorsed by our fellow chinese citizens which is a dead give away of how authentic any chinese cuisine is!

The Jolly will always be full of people on a Sunday, the half priced pizza special is common knowledge for bachelors, and students that are either too lazy to cook, or not quite ready to end the weekend.

The Rosebank Rooftop Market has been a stable injection of coolness in Johannesburg for as long as I can remember. Its great that its almost a reliable institution by now. Get anything from fancy jewelery to old books. A store worth a mention is one selling vintage block mounts of films and iconic images. You’ll find it…don’t worry. Enjoy some great take away style food, or have the experience be best matched with a meal somewhere in the Rosebank area.

Basic method of getting there is to head for The Mall of Rosebank within the Rosebank shopping district. And head to the top level’s of the mall’s parking lot, and you’re golden!

Only done on Sundays until mid afternoon. But best hit in the morning.
