Welcome to The Potato Man!
he Potato Man was established in Darwin way back in early 1987! For the last 26 years it has been situated on the Nightcliff Foreshore on Sunday evenings as the sun sets into the Timor Sea, and a regular at the Mindil Markets for almost as long!
riginally located in the jetty carpark we soon outgrew the space available and so around 8 years ago moved into the car park adjacent to the Nightcliff Swimming Pool. Come and grab a huge hot potato with all the trimmings and a cold drink on a Sunday evening from 5pm till 7.30pm whilst the sky turns all shades from blue to orange to purple and anything in between!
e have been a regular at the Thursday night Mindil Beach Sunset Markets since it started back in the mid 80's. The Mindil Beach Sunset Markets are a major event held every week Thursday and Sunday evenings during the Dry Season from the last Thursday in April till the last Thursday in October! You will find us at the Darwin High School end of the markets.
e are also available for catering special events, please contact us for more information.
