MARCHÉ SAINT-QUENTIN

Covered market and market hall

Welcome to the largest covered market in Paris under a Baltard hall. If you don't know it yet, run there. In addition to the large number of food shops, including caterers specializing in foreign cuisine, you will find a drugstore and hardware store, which is becoming increasingly rare. There are of course great food products here, but also (and more and more) flowers. Finally, there are many tourists, including foreigners, who find the place "so French".

MARCHÉ SAINT-MARTIN

Covered market and market hall

From the old architecture, four stone porches that blend perfectly into the modern facade have been preserved. This market is different, with its outward-facing businesses that offer shoppers services that complement the food products offered indoors. It is very lively, almost bubbling at certain times of the day, especially on Sunday mornings. On the other hand, few stands, so few choices but well selected and of high quality. The "Mille et une spécialités (Thousand and One Specialities) butcher's shop is interesting for its good value for money. Les Jardins d'Anthony by Sébastien Manier is a beautiful greengrocer stand that inspires the young chef Brice Morven for his restaurant Au comptoir de Brice, located in the heart of the market. Italian and Afro-Caribbean specialties, Aunt Emma and her German products, an organic square and a shoemaking and locksmith shop. For a few months now, the market has been home to La Pépinière Village, a kind of springboard for young chefs who are taking their first steps in this workshop-boutique. There are pastries, wine, smoothies, tapas, etc.
