Loved checking out this farmer's market on a dreary Saturday a couple weekends ago in Amsterdam!…read more Located in the Jordaan neighborhood, this market has a history of being located in this public square since 1623, when it was renamed after the newly built Noorderkerk, a church which still stands today. Its prior name was Prisenmarkt (named after Prinsengracht (Prince canal)). The earliest version of the market sold everything from pottery, textiles, household items, second-hand goods and pigeons. There's a detailed accounting of this market's history on their website. The current iteration of the market consists of 1) a farmer's market with many local and artisanal producers of farm produce, meats and dairy, baked goods, etc. and 2) a "general goods" market which consists of stands selling housewares, art, vintage clothing and accessories, antiques, textiles and household furnishings, and more. The former is held on Saturdays 9-4pm, the latter on Saturdays same time as the farmers market and Mondays 9-2pm. From where I was walking around, it looked like about three dozen vendors with stands of varied sizes gathered here to sell on a Saturday morning. I also arrived around 9:30am, so there were still vendors setting up too. What a bustling atmosphere and certainly lots of locals doing some weekend food shopping--saw plenty of veggies, fruit, bread, placed directly in bicycle crates (on the front or back of this popular transportation method Amsterdam is well-known for) and biked away. So many yummy looking items! It made me wish I had a kitchen there so I could buy and prepare food from this market.

The Noordermarkt on Mondays only is when there are vintage sellers and not just clothes..... had a…read moregood selection of vendors and we did well finding kitschy resale items to fill our suitcases. And everything reasonably priced. Bring cash and your carry bags - some take cards but not many. There are clothes - and food stalls as well. Worth visiting if vintage kitsch is your bag

Wife and I really enjoyed our time at this small farmers market. It was crowded with locals and…read moretourists. We ate at several stalls and bought various foods. The grill in the middle was really good, as was the noodle stall. We bought cheese and bread and wine. Fun to people watch, snack, and enjoy a couple hours on the weekend. Recommended.

What a great market!…read more I usually go to the Albert Cuyp for normal shopping, as it is closer to my house, and bigger. But last Saturday, when I ended up there rather by coincidence, I remembered why I passed by there almost every week back when I used to live in Oud Zuid. Thus, I have decided to do my best to visit next week again. The market is small, but very 'gezellig'. It's quite cute actually. It has a lot of different things - flowers, burgers, wine, meats, vegetables, cheese. I also got a homemade spicy sun-dried tomato mayonnaise. It was a bit pricey at 6,95 euros, but it is amazing! Perfect also for summer dishes, I paired it with cod cheeks on little gem salad and onion-parsley-tomato salsa. Delicious! But indeed, the price is a little shocking, especially if 3 stalls further you can buy a bottle of rose for the same price (even a bit less, actually). Also, my friend and I got a burger and enjoyed it in the sun; I recommend :) There is not a lot of place to sit, but if you can snag a spot at the shared tables, it is really great. Anyways - loving it - and I will be back for sure.

Kind of a meh market. There's a lot to see, but nothing too unique. Tons of fish mongers, and…read morepeople selling vintage or used clothing. Or maybe just very unfashionable clothing. Lots of random other stands like cell phone accessories and fidget spinners and toothpaste. I guess it's more of a thing you go to for grocery shopping, and not really great for tourists. Also super crowded, so it takes a while to walk through end to end.

This market takes place every Tuesday and Saturday. Saturday's market is slightly bigger but also…read moremore crowded. Make sure to walk over the entire market to compare prices before buying something, as especially the stands further away from the street tend to have a better price/quality ratio. If you are here on vacation make sure to check out the cheese stand, where you can also try different cheeses. Also make sure to buy some fish, its so fresh I regularly use it to make my own sushi!

Interesting, some of the tents are different when I went the second and third time. Was it due to going there on a weekday versus a weekend? Not sure. I would say the first time I went, it took me about 2 hours, because I was really enjoying myself and checked almost every tent, plus waiting in line for some.

This farmers market definitely should not be missed!

You'll also find hot dogs, stroopwafels, and so many other things. There's a lot of variety, and so much of it is made fresh right there. The walkways are pretty narrow and packed with people, but that's part of the fun. Everything we tried was tasty, and the prices were really good too. Highly recommend the stroopwafel! They're soft, warm, and less sweet, and about half the price of the ones at Stroopwafel shops. Such a great deal! :)
