Kind of a meh market. There's a lot to see, but nothing too unique. Tons of fish mongers, and…read morepeople selling vintage or used clothing. Or maybe just very unfashionable clothing. Lots of random other stands like cell phone accessories and fidget spinners and toothpaste. I guess it's more of a thing you go to for grocery shopping, and not really great for tourists. Also super crowded, so it takes a while to walk through end to end.

This market takes place every Tuesday and Saturday. Saturday's market is slightly bigger but also…read moremore crowded. Make sure to walk over the entire market to compare prices before buying something, as especially the stands further away from the street tend to have a better price/quality ratio. If you are here on vacation make sure to check out the cheese stand, where you can also try different cheeses. Also make sure to buy some fish, its so fresh I regularly use it to make my own sushi!

Antwerp has a killer Market on Saturday about 10 minutes from the train station - do not miss this…read more So many stands where you will find dried fruits, fresh everything, seafood, butchers, sausages, and even the occasional non-food item. You can browse for hours - just bring cash. You must find the Moroccan stand near the theater building - look for the with two guys making mezze wraps and the long line. They start with handmade roti made minutes before serving and add fresh soft cheese and honey. If you have the palette of a child - you can stop there. The advanced level adds touches of dried figs, marinated artichokes, sundried tomatoes, roasted peppers and spicy olives. Yes, still with honey drizzled on. Add the Moroccan tea and for EUR 4,50 you have an incredible smattering of flavor where each bite is different.

Loved checking out this farmer's market on a dreary Saturday a couple weekends ago in Amsterdam!…read more Located in the Jordaan neighborhood, this market has a history of being located in this public square since 1623, when it was renamed after the newly built Noorderkerk, a church which still stands today. Its prior name was Prisenmarkt (named after Prinsengracht (Prince canal)). The earliest version of the market sold everything from pottery, textiles, household items, second-hand goods and pigeons. There's a detailed accounting of this market's history on their website. The current iteration of the market consists of 1) a farmer's market with many local and artisanal producers of farm produce, meats and dairy, baked goods, etc. and 2) a "general goods" market which consists of stands selling housewares, art, vintage clothing and accessories, antiques, textiles and household furnishings, and more. The former is held on Saturdays 9-4pm, the latter on Saturdays same time as the farmers market and Mondays 9-2pm. From where I was walking around, it looked like about three dozen vendors with stands of varied sizes gathered here to sell on a Saturday morning. I also arrived around 9:30am, so there were still vendors setting up too. What a bustling atmosphere and certainly lots of locals doing some weekend food shopping--saw plenty of veggies, fruit, bread, placed directly in bicycle crates (on the front or back of this popular transportation method Amsterdam is well-known for) and biked away. So many yummy looking items! It made me wish I had a kitchen there so I could buy and prepare food from this market.
