How to Actually Find Things on SideStall
Search by what people sell, not who they are. Type honey, eggs or sourdough, or use the @ handle for a seller you know. Here's how finding works.
There's a small trick to finding things on SideStall, and once you know it the whole app opens up.
Search for what people sell
The search bar works on products. Type the thing you're craving: honey, eggs, sourdough, flowers, tomatoes, beef. Search matches what sellers have actually listed, so the results are stalls near you with that thing on the table.
That's the way in. Think of what you'd put on a shopping list, not the name of a stall.
Know the seller? Use their handle
Every stall on SideStall has a handle, just like an Instagram handle. If someone gives you theirs, type the @ symbol followed by the handle and you'll land straight on their stall. It's also the link sellers share around: sidestall.au/stall/@theirhandle works in any browser.
And honestly, the map beats both
The best way to use SideStall is the laziest one. Open the map and look at what's around you. Every pin is a real stall, and the ones near you are the point of the whole app. Some of the best food in your area is sitting at the end of a driveway you drive past every week.
The quick version
- Craving something? Type the product into search.
- Know the seller? Type @ and their handle.
- Just browsing? Open the map and see what's near you.
Type what you're hungry for into the search tonight and see who's got it.
SideStall is free on the App Store and Google Play.
