Boni Gorod is Batumi’s main covered market, a bustling bazaar where local farmers and traders sell fresh produce, cheeses, honey, spices, dried fruit, nuts and the moreish grape-and-nut sweet churchkhela. Colourful and authentic, it is the best place to shop for local, seasonal ingredients and to sample Adjaran and Georgian specialities directly from the producers. Buying here supports small-scale local growers and offers a genuine taste of everyday life away from the tourist boulevard.
