We visited Marche Jean Talon on a Monday morning during our Montreal-Quebec city summer vacation…read more From the variety of shops, to the quality of produce, it absolutely blew us away! Can't believe it's open all day every day; wish we had anything close to this in our neighborhood. Street parking was easy to find on a weekday morning, and the market was pretty quiet when we arrived just before 10 AM. We split a rocket, goat cheese, walnut panini on ciabatta, which was delicious. I also tried a few cheeses at the extensive cheese shop, and the staff were friendly and helpful. I could have spent hours at the marketing roaming, admiring all the vibrant, fresh produce, and watching local artists sketch and paint the floral section -- which is stunning. It was a great place to buy souvenirs and trip gifts from local vendors. If only we had time to come back to Marche Jean Talon multiple days on our trip. Highly recommend!

Okay... The market…read moreis huge and has a great selection of fresh fruits, flowers, and local food stalls (the vibes are 10/10). However, it's super touristy, which means prices are inflated and finding parking can be a literal nightmare. It's a cute place to visit on a sunny afternoon to grab a snack, but if you're just looking for cheap, quick groceries, you might want to look elsewhere.

TL;DR/The Short Version: Cool market with open air/outdoors…read moresection and covered/indoors section. From fruits and vegetables to Wagyu beef and foie gras, they have it all for the at-home chef. The Long Version: My husband and I love Farmers' Markets, so while planning our trip to Laval, I marked Marché Public 440 as one of the places for us to check out. We went in May so the outdoors section was open. I doubt it's open year-round, like the indoors section. The outdoors section had lots of affordably priced fruits and vegetables. We ended up getting 5 containers of blackberries for $1 each. We also got 2 packs of baby cucumbers. Each pack had 6 cucumbers and they were $2 each or 2 packs for $3. The indoors section is significantly pricier, but they have gourmet items. They had expensive cuts of meats, gourmet cheeses and artisan chocolates. They had a few eateries too, which ranged in prices. It's a fun place to walk around. Lots of free parking in their private parking lot. Review #97 (2025)

En plus on peut y attraper un chariot comme au supermarché et passer de boutique en boutique avec. L'été il y a les vendeurs de légumes à l'extérieur. J'adore y acheter des cagettes entières pour faire des bocaux de légumes. A l'intérieur je vais à la poissonnerie, chez le boucher, la SAQ et la boulangerie et parfois aussi à la chocolaterie ou dans les boutiques de cadeaux. Vraiment pratique!

I picked up some fresh produce and a baguette from a store which claimed to have Montreal's #1 baguette. I always love coming to the market. There's so much to see and shop for.

A great marketplace with a variety of items all around. This was just a short walk from the train…read morestation and had fruit stands right outside. We got big green grapes that were quite pricey, nearly $20 USD but they were just grapes, they were more juicy though. There are also a few places to eat, we ended up at a bakery cafe at the end upstairs. They had different sandwiches and focaccia similar to a pizza type. They heat these up so it was perfect to eat right away. *Warning* There was a an issue of not being labeled nut and asking the worker if there was any and they said no but after confirming with the cook there was walnut in the bread. So I would be extra careful about that. Other than that they had foie gras for sale as well as many other places that had it as well. There were a few grocery stores and butcher shops so there is a lot to choose from if you are looking for different types. There were a few dessert places but the place isn't too big with more variety for grocery food items.

Unfortunately the quality of the fruits and veggies here have gone down a bit. Though the prices…read moreare still great and you get a lot for what you pay for, I find a lot of rotting fruit or over ripe fruit. I still come here regularly but am less excited about this place in general. The staff are friendly and I'm still happy to have access to reasonably priced produce. 3.5 stars

Stumbled across this busy farmers market when I was in Cote des Neiges. I was immediately drawn in…read moreand had to see what all the rush was about. There is a mix of produce, from what you can find in the supermarkets (same packaging etc) to a lot of produce from local farms which was lovely to see. Great selection of berries and tomatoes... super large tomatoes on the vine that looked divine! For me, what stood out the most was the large selection of local honey - I have found it difficult to find this in shops/supermarkets but this market has a good variety of honey from different flowers and farms. I also noticed that the market is open until late, ideal for students and locals in the area!

It has a nice vibe, you are outdoors surrounded with plants and the old port. To be honest this is a place to go for drinks rather than a meal. It has very limited selection of meals mostly salads. Do not go there if you are looking forward to a big meal. I had the Caesar broccoli which was very good. My friends had oysters which they loved and cucumber salad and tomato salad. We were all happy with our choices but like I said we wanted a big meal which this place does not offer. More of a chill ambiance for drinks and snacks. The only I gave it 4 stars was lack of selection and our waiter was quick to remove our food even when we were nit finished. My friend had to tell him that he is still eating and waiter put back his plate. All in all a good experience.
