What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Gourmet Market Central Station is praised for its incredible variety of global cuisines and the convenience of its QR code ordering system, making it ideal for groups. While many enjoy the quality and flavorful dishes, some reviews mention issues with music choice and a negative experience with a manager. The ambiance, especially the outdoor seating, is also a draw.
"I like the concept of many cafes in one place because when with a friend group we don’t have to argue about which cuisine to choose. Everyone can just order what they want and enjoy food together. We ordered korean chicken and it was really good! Also, It can get busy during the weekend with few to none tables free, but the place has nice atmosphere and the stuff is friendly. Definitely recommended to visit!"
Bogdana Sharp
"The food court is excellent, offering a wide variety of options to choose from, catering to different tastes. You can even combine dishes from different cuisines, which is a unique and convenient feature. The process is seamless—simply scan the QR code, pay online, and your food will be brought directly to your table. The quality of the food is impressive and flavorful dishes. The location is centrally situated, making it easy to access. The setup is well-organized, creating a hassle-free dining experience."

"I love the concept of eating in one place where each person can choose a different cuisine.
The place itself looks pretty cool! It's worth checking the interior for sure.
Sadly, the music most of the time we were there was pretty bad, though..
My chicken crepioca (from Pedro's) was very good, even though it wasn't crusty (at all) as described in the menu.
We were disappointed, though, about the "Mini cheese pastel", included in the "Brazilian bites": the pictures show 8 pieces, and nowhere it is mentioned they' will actually bring just 4 of them, for nearly 9 EUR ! That was certainly way overpriced! Also, one of them had a 2cm long piece of soft plastic within the pastry - I guess from cutting the cheese or the pastry itself? Regardless, I wouldn't recommend them because of the price for the 4 small pieces with (barely any) cheese filling.
The other dishes my family ordered were very good, too: Korean fried chicken, bami noodles..
We also had some refreshing drinks at the end that we all liked a lot!
So, all in all, it was a positive experience, minus the music and the cheese bites."
