Gorgeous flowers and plants, colorful vegetables, cheeses, and ice cider, excellent bakery. We didn't stop at the meat shops. What a wonderful market for wandering or for lunch. We like to eat lunch from the deli inside and finish up with dessert from the patisserie. It is busy and noisy, but fun. We bought great bread to take home for... More

Came here for breakfast and shopping and had an excellent time. Had breakfast at the bakery on the first floor and the croissants melted in your mouth. Delicious hot chocolate as well. The fromargie du atwater had cheese tastings and a wide selection. My favorite was the mushroom vendor. Definitely worth a visit

A complete open air market for all types of produce. Is worth a visit for the colors and variety. Not a good place for eating out. Some good bargains to be had.

There is a very good boulangerie in the market and many stores selling very good Canadian and French food. Unfortunately it does not offer good places to eat.

This cant really compete with st lawerence market in toronto. Not a lot of variety, There is no a must-try food or stall here, bu the all the fruit stalls are amazing arranged. Florists are big part of market, all outdoor. Inside the building are deli shops, cheese shops, pasta shops, and a pretty amazing bakery with like a huge... More

The fresh produce, meat, cheese and bakery items all look wonderful. Shared a small pizza at Pizza Mia; wonderful flavor then headed to the bakery to have coffee and share a couple of desserts. Everything is so beautifully presented it was a tough decision. I think any choice you make will be wonderful.

We enjoyed our quick visit to the market. Parking was available onsite, if somewhat limited, and the market itself has a variety of shops to pop into and explore. The bakery, in particular, had some lovely loafs on display; we found ourselves wishing our stomachs were big enough to take it all in! Great place to pick up some local... More

Fresh fish, fruit, cheeses, meats. flowers and more. Check out the Fromagerie in the middle of the market. They have fantastic suggestions and let you sample the cheeses. They also have a room of beer from around the world and local Quebec beers. The market is not overwhelming and we went back twice. There is a liquor store across the... More

Although the market isn't a s big as St. Lawrence maket in Toronto, it's still worth to visit. The bakery shop is my favorite one, coffee taste great and cakes delicious . And don't miss the pizza shop on the ground floor. If u like seafood , there are different shops to sell crabs, lobsters. Of course, variety stores for... More

Great market experience - huge abundance of great cheese, meats and seafoods. Also maple syrup and fresh-baked goods ... but it was the second floor coffee roaster that drew me in. The aromas were amazing and the selection of great roasts very good too!
