After visiting the…read moremuseum (if you decide to go, you do need to purchase tickets 1- 2 weeks in advance because they do not sell tickets at the door), we visited this mercado in search of something for lunch and also to browse. We visited this market 2 Tuesdays ago. We ended up deciding to stop by a food vendor (Jugos y Coctetes Alexis) that is known for their fruit juices and fresh foods because I decided that I really wanted a salad. As much as I am truly loving a lot of the local food (and the street tacos are amazing here in Mexico and so is the birria), I was longing for a salad and something nice and fresh. I ended up getting a burrito and a fruit salad (which was much larger than I expected and really a perfect size for 2). My husband got 3 tacos that came with fries and nopales. We also got a mojito which was really nice and refreshing and was perfect (this is non alcoholic and do not think this food vendor serves alcohol). I think it was not made with any added sugar, which is what I really loved. Afterwards, we did browse the market and ended up purchasing some souvenirs to bring back home such as Lucha Libre Masks for our nephews (they do sell kid size masks if you are looking for those and are a little cheaper) and also a few masks for our friends (adults) as well. Purchasing these masks here in Mexico City is significantly cheaper than purchasing at home (They are $20 USD for the cheaper versions on Amazon and $25 USD from the vendors selling at the LA County Fair for those that are from my neck of the woods). I also purchased a few small Día de los Muertos figurines because I really love the way they look and also love that Día de los Muertos celebrates our loved ones who have passed away. We also purchased some vegetables as well to take back to our Airbnb to cook (yes I am one of those people who cook even on vacation). Overall, we had a really great experience at this market and would recommend coming here for a visit.

Visiting local open or indoor markets and supermarkets are one of the best ways of getting to know…read morelocal culture when visiting somewhere new, so I try to visit at least a couple examples of both whenever I'm traveling to a different country. Mercado de Coyoacán popped up as a convenient option since it's within a 10 minute walking distance from both Museo Frida Kahlo and Museo Casa Kahlo. Open since 1921 (though originally in a different location), on an early Sunday afternoon this appeared to be a popular place to visit, with plenty of people eating lunch at the many food stands, picking up groceries as well as a number of tourists exploring the aisles. The market is divided into sections, another Yelper compared it to Ben Thanh market in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam (aka Saigon), and I'd agree this reminded me of a smaller version of that, and the setup is very similar! And by smaller by my estimate there's still more than 150 vendors here, so relatively speaking tons to explore (if that gives you an idea of how large BT market is)! Different sections of the market sell different items, there are areas for apparel, accessories, vegetables and fruit, butchers and seafood, spices/condiments/sauces, dried goods and coffee, food stalls, handicrafts and souvenirs interspersed in between. Each stall has a number tho you may need to do some wandering around to locate a specific one if you're searching for it. Vibrant sights, smells and sounds greet you at every corner, since it was around lunchtime the delicious scents of food wafting around made me hungry! I ate at one of the more popular stalls and food was decent though perhaps not stellar imho. However I may not have ordered the right items and it was also one of many choices so I'm sure there are other tasty items to try. The aisles are very narrow, enough for one person to pass thru in some cases, so take that into account. Bathrooms are available though not clear on conditions. Cash is preferred, or required at some stands, and a number of vendors also take credit cards with chips. For more info: https://mexicocity.cdmx.gob.mx/venues/coyoacan-market/?lang=en

Then the second level features a cafe with seating and views that overlook Avenida Independencia. There is also a hostal here on the third level, but I wasn't sure if the terrace was actually part of the hostel or if it's just for the public. I would have definitely stayed at the hostal had I even known it existed here. I would reccon that this building has probably been here for three hundred years. This building really does give you a sense of the oldest city in the world.

I was so happy to find a "surprise" market, along with all the other markets I had on my list!

It seemed like most of the small restaurants inside of the market were offering fish platters, which none of us had the appetite for today.

We found one special restaurant and we all at pollo asado con feiiles and arroz. Two large pitchers of Jamaica juice was included. The service and food were great.

There are also street vendors right outside that sell delicious food too. My husband and I visited this market 2 Sundays ago. We decided we would come here for lunch and then browse the rest of the market. We ended up having chicken mole and a steak with homemade tortillas for lunch, all of which was delicious. The employee who served us was friendly and he also was great at offering his recommendations. We were also able to pay with credit card (if you have the Visa credit card associated with Costco, it does not have a foreign transaction fee by the way. But if you purchase items in the market, you need cash). After lunch, we ended up purchasing produce so that we could bring it back to our airbnb to cook later on (yes I do like to cook even when on vacation, helps to keep things healthy for us when we travel so that we are not relying on take out but still allows for us to enjoy local food and eat clean on vacation). The produce was very cheap, as compared to prices back home in the states. There are bathrooms available, but you do have to pay $5 MXN (or $0.29 USD) to use them. I did end up using the ladies restroom and it was very clean. When I came in, there was an employee who was cleaning the stalls. There was also soap by the sink for you to use. But there is no toilet paper in the stalls. When you pay $5 MXN right outside of the bathroom, the woman will give you toilet paper (but it is also just a good idea to bring your own pocket size tissue paper, which is what I had done during our entire trip). Overall, we had a good experience. I will say it does help if you can speak some Spanish, which my husband is able and I am able to speak a little myself. But I think for a visit here, you may just get by with not really being able to speak, as you can use a Google translator and just point to things to indicate what you would like to order or purchase. And I would say that all of the people working in the stalls and restaurants know enough English to be able to tell you how much that item or your bill cost.
