My first time at the Batavia Farmer's Market and I came to help work the Community Tent. The Community Tent fills up very fast at the start of the season so interested non-profits can sign up to promote their work and mission. I like the convenient layout of the market where the vendors are pretty much in a couple rows and there are porta potties and plenty of parking close by. The vendors are local and reasonably priced and there were many good made to order vendors for coffee, baked goods, dog treats, and burgers too. It's a pet-friendly market too so it was a treat to see many beautiful, well-behaved dogs. I would love to return when I have more time to walk through the vendor tents. read more

The Batavia Outdoor Market runs from May thru October on River Street offering fresh produce,cut flowers,cheeses,breads and meats from local merchants. It does get crowded and only street parking is available. In the Winter months they move indoors with less vendors. Definitely a fun way to spend a Saturday morning. read more

Lively Farmers Market by Fox River! A lovely park to stroll through, mature trees, bike paths & spots to relax. This market offers a wide variety of products: plants, herbs, flowers, pastries, beignets, fresh fruit juices, tacos, tamales, elotes, fresh eggs, frozen meats & charcoal-grilled beef/goat/lamb skewers ready to be devoured! A bonus is the presence of friendly dogs in all sizes adds to the lively atmosphere. People are friendly in this small suburban town! read more

Always nice to stroll through Batavia but especially on a beautiful Saturday morning during farmers market season. There are lots of vendors serving food and drinks plus fresh produce and handicrafts. If you're looking for fresh flowers get there early because they do sell out. read more

Used to love this market and have been a supporter since its start. However, city has now erected barricades that have cut off any accessible parking so we can no longer avail ourselves of easy access. This began on the day our aldermen showed up for an en masse visit, so kinda makes one wonder!! They say it is for safety, but I have always felt safe before as I do at every other market I frequent in the area -- Schaumburg, St. Charles, Naperville, Winfield. Won't be returning which is sad since I believe in supporting local farmers. read more

I look forward to the market every year and go nearly every weekend. There is always such a great spread of vendors and it has major stars hallow vibes. read more

We go to several different farmers market in the NW and West burbs - Batavia was a first for us this year. It was great - lots of unique vendors, fresh produce and food items. Definitely worth the stop. read more

We've been here for summer/fall and the indoor market as well. There's lots to choose from and vendors are lovely. We look forward to coming back again and again read more

Had a good time here. The food was great and everything was priced well with the vendors we visited.

Nice market in a great location. One a month they have extra vendors for their Artisan market, which will keep you busy. I typically get here bread, produce, beef jerky, small flower arrangements, juice, and sweets. Walk over to the boardwalk shops with cute offerings (bakery, door signs, wooden pieces, macrame store, charcuterie, home decor, to name a few). The businesses change every spring to give new businesses opportunities. This is right downtown so plenty to do and a nice walk along the River. read more

There definitely need to be more winter farmer's markets like this one! It's in a small indoor space at The Dock; be aware that there are a few steps up and there is no ramp, which they do note on their website. The inside space is small but there weren't too many customers, so it was ok. We found everything from baked goods to meats, eggs to grow-your-own mushroom kits, with a couple of produce vendors present as well with items ranging from root veggies to microgreens. Among the items my friend and I purchased were scones and hand pies from Crumble (loved the cran-orange scone, not too sweet), an everything-spiced croissant from Gather Bakery (yummy! Would make a great base for a savory sandwich like chicken salad or herbed cream cheese), coffee from Java Plus (I don't drink coffee but he said it was really good), and summer sausage from Burgin Farms (they had quite a few varieties of sausages). Definitely a nice pick-me-up on a wintry weekend morning! Only open 9-12, so get up early and get to Batavia for the indoor market! read more

This was a nice market. It's right by the river in downtown batavia. The scenery is beautiful! They have quite a few vendors from soaps to baked goods, healthy drinks and hot food. I will say fresh fruits and veggies are scarce here and that's why I took a star off. But I did end up getting a dozen eggs and fresh milk from a meat stand. And I also got beinets. This is a cute market to come to again every now and again. read more

Between the number of local farmers/butchers and the great location (right on the Fox River!), this is one of the best farmers markets I have found. Parking is plentiful. The produce is fresh & delicious. The vendor on the north end has apple cider donuts (even in August) and the one on the south end has elotes and breakfast tacos. There is a coffee place, a fresh juice place, a used bookstore, art for sale on the sides, a great selection of meat & dairy including duck eggs... just an awesome variety and an awesome place to spend a Saturday morning. Grab a pastry and take a walk with your boo or your little ones across the Peace Bridge! read more

Batavia Farmers Market - South end of the Batavia Farmers Market at 9am on a Saturday morning in August (Who needs the French Market??) - Farmers Market Near Me - Batavia, Illinois

Excellent farmers market on Saturday mornings. Variety of shops including breads, bakeries, fresh fruits and veggies from farm stands, soap and home goods, live music, balsamic vinegar and olive oil stand, and more. The icing on the cake: live cooking demonstration from Gaetano's restaurant in Batavia. We picked up a bottle of fig balsamic, fresh made sausage from Gaetano's and some other goodies!! read more

Beautiful location, lively street music, friendly atmosphere, everyone having a good time; that's my kind of place! I like to take my two small dogs with me and stroll through the brick lined street while people watching. Highly recommend this farmers market!! read more

A fun place to spend a Saturday morning! While you can park downtown, I like to go for a morning run or walk with the dog and poke through on our way. From breakfast tacos to smoothies to fresh breads and more, there is always something tasty to treat yourself with. read more

Yelp has the wrong location. See the website Market has tons of vendors, but few farmers. There are smoothies and vita drinks, essential oils and soaps, meat and bread. For produce I 'll go somewhere else. read more
