This is the main foodie market hall in Colmar, and it's small but filled with fantastaic offerings…read more I never pass up the chance to visit a good food hall in Europe, and this one didn't disappoint. The Marche Couvert is located in the middle of old town in a lovely building. It's free to enter, so at least go in to look around even if you don't plan on buying any food. Inside, you'll find a mix of local produce, cheeses, meats, wines, and a few prepared-food stands that make it really tempting to grab a bite on the spot. The atmosphere is warm and lively, with vendors who are generally friendly and happy to chat (especially if you show a little curiosity about what they're selling). It's also a nice break from the more touristy streets outside. It's still very popular, but in a more relaxed way. I was enamored by the fresh pasta stand, especially because the proprietors were speaking Italian. I couldn't pass this up, so I ordered a small portion of homemade cheese tortellini with tomato sauce. Within 10 minutes, my snack was ready (and it was delicious). Hubby elected for some oysters with beer, and enjoyed them. There isn't a lot of seating inside, so be aware if you need a place to rest your feet. Some of the larger stalls had seating if you ordered food or beverages from them (but it was still nearly impossible to get a seat). This market isn't worth a trip just to Colmar to visit, but I'd consider it a must-do for any foodie who is in the area.

Worth the effort but use a paper map.

You'll see local goodies like honey, cheeses, breads & baked goods. There are also flowers, fruits, veggies & food stalls everywhere the eyes looks - colorful, fresh & one of Freiburg's "must-indulge" attractions for sure. We didn't know about this market & had just eaten a huge breakfast at our hotel, so there was no tasty treat indulgence however, we did go crazy at a particular stall selling local honey Blue Cornflower & Rapeseed Flower honeys were ours for the taking. Also tried an Oak Tree honey that was interesting as well & had we had the luggage space, I could have gone totally crazy as she had all kinds of honey products like soaps & candles in addition to outrageously scrumptious raw honey Farmers' stalls are piled high with fresh produce and the cheese stalls were too tempting w/ their local yet diverse selections. Food stalls see tourists & locals alike, lining up to buy meaty, grilled sausages or freshly baked rolls & sweet buns. My best advice to you is come early, come hungry, & bring lots of cash!

The lay of the space is like a food court where you can eat with your eyes and choose your international food choice. From Asian, to Indian, to sandwiches, to gelato and more. There's a dish drop off when you're done. Washrooms are near one of the exits and there's even a change room for babies. Many thanks for fellow Yelper Benjamin B for recommending. The prices there are similar to restaurant, with no tip and no reservations required (because reservations are a must for most Swiss restaurants).

I like the German stand best, I think, located all the way in. But for the most part, it is just average at best but overpriced. Even simple Chinese food (and still the bad German style you're used to) costs about EUR6 for chicken with rice. There is almost no seating available during the lunch rush, and it can even be hard to find a standing-place at the high tables. With all the people rushing about and the limited space, it can be quite uncomfortable and not exactly a nice break from work. I'd say altogether I'd give this place 2.5 stars if I could. Before the prices went up last year, at least it would be 3 because I would go every once in a while. But I find now it's not even good enough as just a different place to go for lunch... and hence 2 stars. Not horrible, but there's no need to visit here.
