There are piles and heaps of fresh fruits and veggies. There's a huge booth that sells about a hundred varieties of olives. From huge, nearly plum sized models to teeny ones not much bigger than a pea. It's France so you expect a shocking assortment of cheese but the variety here is nearly mind blowing. And next door it's sausage. And next to that it's seafood. And next to that it's turkey and duck and chicken and quail. Be careful though. If you have sweet, little Americans with you they may see that plucked but head-still-on chicken and turn to you with quivering lips and watery eyes and ask.

My family and I came for lunch on a weekday, so not all of the food stalls were open. We did a couple laps around the market, looking at the various types of food offered. The place has many types of cuisines, with both takeout and sit down options. For lunch, the majority of our group decided on trying the Italian restaurant. My mother had her own idea of what she wanted for lunch and wandered over to another restaurant. I like that you can pick and choose and find something that suits all. At the Italian place, I ordered the caprese and so did my aunt. My little cousin went with the lasagna and nephew ordered the spaghetti with clams. My sister went with this pasta with a marinara sauce. Food was delicious and affordable. After our meal, we walked around again and I ended up buying cheeses and crackers from the Fromager. Service wasn't too friendly, but really didn't mind as I was getting this to go. I later learned that the Marche des enfants rouges is the oldest market in Paris and dates back to 1628. I really love the history behind the market and the food that we ate that day. The only downside is that almost half of the places were closed due to the day that we went, so you never know what will be offered.

This was my first stop on my trip to Paris. It was an interesting outdoor food market with a…read morevariety of stalls and some indoor restaurants. We visited during the heat wave and we found a place that sort of had A/C. We all needed a break and enjoyed the slightly cooled atmosphere. I would say this wouldn't rank the highest on my list of food markets I've been to. They had some good looking vegetables, cheeses, and the crepes looked amazing. But overall it felt limited.

If you like to experience a REAL FARMER MARKET, you must go the the Marche de Versailles. In…read moreFrance, its almost an institution. The Marche de Versailles take place on Tuesday, Fridays and Sundays from 7am to 1pm. "Farmers" or sellers start installing their "stands" at 3am/4am in the morning every single time. When I live in Versailles, it was our Sunday commitment. Buy your veggies, fruits, fresh eggs, fresh poultry and get your fresh cut flowers at the Marche! Its a great experience if you are a tourist but for us French people its just our day (sundays) where you spend time with your family and buy fresh products for the week Hundreds of sellers, very large amount of choice in product and price. The smell and the colors are just amazing (our Farmer Market here is California or Vegas are a joke). The fruits are so tasty, juicy & colorful. Selection of products depends on the season so for sure you don't have the plastic taste of tomato sometime i experience when you go to Smith, Albertson's or even Sprout or Whole Food. Yes the color is beautiful and shinny but the taste is missing. You pay cash your purchase. Many french people will come with their own "caddie or panier" little stroller to carry their purchase. Very common put your little kid in the back and ride your bicycle. Plenty of spot where you can park your bicycle. I Miss the ambiance and the smell of the Marche. It was my childhood memories Sellers are challenging each other in the funny and kind way screaming to customers their products are fresher than the other. Its just funny to experience it. If you ask they will always have to taste before you buy. Remember in France you buy by the Kilo not pound (so 1 kg is about 2 pounds) In France most of streets parking are free on sundays, NOT in Versailles. The Marche of Versailles is so popular that if you forget to pay your parking, you will for sure get a ticket. GREAT EXPERIENCE if you visit the Chateau de Versailles or Palace of Versailles, the Marche is less than 10 mns walk from it. Also many gastronomic restaurants to enjoy your papilles!!

Both my wife and I supported and bought a few items, etc. So many food options. Fresh produce, meats, flowers, etc. Wineries here representing their vineyards also. All different kinds of merchandise for sale - Thrift items, to "dollar" store items, to custom made jewelry and leather pieces, etc. Ambiance - See all my pictures. This market is HUGE!! Way bigger than I expected. Maybe the biggest market we have been to since arriving in France. Public toilets nearby, my first discovery. I felt like a kid trying to figure it out. FYI - The toilet cleans itself after each use, so be patient. Oh, and I can NOT recommend the urinal... Service - Good. They are here to sell. Price - From inexpensive to expensive. Depends on what you buy, eat, or drink. Owner Comment - Congrats on all your success.

Came to the Bastille Market to try one of the rotisserie chickens from here. I don't remember the…read morename of the exact place, but it was the last bird I consumed in France. My swan song from a disappointing trip in the bird department. Off the eye test, it doesn't get much better. The beautiful sight of tissi's rotating in front of a fire breathing oven, potatoes in the tray below collecting the chicken juices as they fell, had me ready to run around the Bastille plaza yelling "LE MOUVEMENT!!". I thought this was going to be my first high level bird in the City of Light. Much to my chagrin, the one I got was just lukewarm. I was ready for my fingerprints to be fully burned off. There was so much potential here, but as always, I have to judge what's in front of me. If I don't have my integrity I have nothing. It landed at an 8.1/10 on the restaurant scale which is good, but if it was hot it could have been up there with the greats in the rare 9 territory. Unrealized potential is one of the most depressing things in the world. IG @johnny.novo Tiktok @jnov__ Substack @johnnynovo
