Marché des Enfants Rouges

This market dates back to 1628 and is the oldest food market in Paris. Located in the Marais area, the market is centrally located and is also covered, making it a comfortable visit any time of year. All types of fresh produce, meat, fish, and dairy are available here along with traditional French food and many international options as well.

Marché President Wilson

Many people don’t know about this market, but almost every tourist stops by here being that it is quite close to the Eiffel Tower, one of the most visited tourist attractions in the world. Famous for its organic stands and fresh baked goods, this market has many healthy options to go along with traditional foods and gits. Plus with the Eiffel Tower in the background, the view can’t be beaten!

Marché Bastille

One of the busiest and biggest markets in Paris despite only being open on Thursdays and Sundays, the Marché Bastille is worth the visit. Located just next to the famous Bastille monument, it is also a great area to see two attractions at the same time. The best time to go is in the morning when the meat and French cheese shops are freshest.
