Jean-Talon Market

Public Market

Located in the heart of Little Italy, Jean-Talon Market is one of the largest public markets in North America and one of Montreal's most treasured institutions. Open year-round since 1933, the market transitions with the seasons, spreading outdoors into open-air aisles in the warmer months and pulling indoors when winter arrives.

Quebec growers offer organic produce including sweet corn, blueberries, heritage tomatoes, garlic, and whatever is in season. In addition, you will find specialty butchers, fresh seafood, artisan cheese, bakeries, and farm fresh eggs along with specialty food shops like Épices de Cru for spices, Olives & Olives, and Pastificio Sacchetto for fresh pasta.

The market has a lively restaurant and café scene woven right through it. Grab a crepe from La Crêperie du Marché, fresh oysters at La Boîte aux Huîtres, or a scoop from Havre-aux-Glaces, the beloved Quebec ice cream institution. Wawel offers Polish bread and pastries, and Brûlerie aux Quatre Vents has freshly roasted coffee. The market also hosts seasonal festivals, so check the calendar before your visit.

Jean-Talon is the place where locals shop, and the perfect place for travelers to experience. Pick up heirloom tomatoes or whatever is at its peak, grab a baguette from Première Moisson, and stop by Le Marché des Saveurs du Québec for local pantry goods, charcuterie, and cheese. If you're staying in Montreal for a few days, a morning at Jean-Talon sets the tone for the day. Go early, take your time, and bring a bag.
