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

Plus you can buy fresh produce, seafood, meats, etc. As usual, my pictures do not do it justice. Ambiance - One of the smaller markets, but then again, it was crazy busy due to the rain storm that just started. Everyone was running for cover. Free public restrooms, use at your own risk. Wifi - I did not use it. Service - Hard to get on this visit as it was again, crazy busy. Price - Trendy market prices, slightly above average.

Not sure what the relationship is between the Aligre Market and Beauvau Covered Market, but because they are literally next to each other. I feel they were the same/similar market. So this review will reflect that. The products/produce are so fresh and flavorful. Ripe. Meats, seafood, flowers, etc. Everything is so fresh. There is even a "thrift" shop market here?!?! Ambiance - Decent size, both indoor and outdoor. Again, I am connecting the two markets. Service - Good. Price - Reasonable. Expect farmers market prices.

Drafted in 2019, decided to post for future reference: This…read morewas my favorite farmer's market in Paris. Tons of fresh fish, meat (both raw and prepared), cheese, and many fruit stalls. I especially loved the prepared meat in the stall near the entrance (they have many prepared items to choose from--I ended up loving the duck foie gras and duck rillette). Also, people were helpful and willing to deal with my poor French :) As another reviewer mentioned, there aren't many (perhaps any) ready-to-way meals. But I wasn't looking for that, and I found the quality to be fantastic.

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!!

You like to eat and drink?…read more Omg!!! Such an amazing market with wonderful selections of meat and cheeses. Breads and wines. Pastries and fruits. Pack a lunch here for Versailles and enjoy the day

Before coming to Paris I had every intention of going to Les Puces de Saint-Ouen, the giant flea…read moremarket about which I'd read so much, but once in Paris I changed my mind. I opted instead for Marche d'Aligre, reasoning that it featured not only a small flea market but also a farmer's market and a market hall. The guide I consulted described Marche d'Aligre as a spot for locals, featuring some of the cheapest produce in Paris. I can't speak to that but I did think everything - including the many meats, seafood, cheeses, and more in the market hall - looked quite fabulous. The swap meet? A little less so. The sole flea market thing that caught my eye suddenly jumped in price when I pulled out my cash but I did see one vendor actively negotiate with a tourist when she found a price out of her reach. That said, this isn't a flea market I'd set out for again; it's plaza-sized (maybe 20 vendors) and the offerings struck me as rather junky. If I had time for only one of Paris' great open-air food markets this isn't the one I'd choose despite the fact that I enjoyed my visit here.
