Thursday is just the middle of the day for those working at the marché, there are a few fewer marchés open. There are 29 marchés in total that are open. I recommend the marché marked with a red circle.

Five recommended Thursday marches

The best place on Thursday is the Marche in Ségur (7:00-15:00), which is one of my favorite places to visit. All the shops are good quality and reasonably priced. There is a cake shop called “MORI YOSHIDA” nearby, so you can go there with them and have a cake on the lawn in front of Invarid before going to the Rodin Museum.

Other than that, my other 4 recommendations are

  • The Marché Saint-Eustache-Les Halles (12:30-20:30) is open until night and I highly recommend it for the ease of stopping by while you’re out shopping. If you don’t want to go all the way to the Marche, this is the place for you. You can enjoy the marché for an hour after shopping in the Marais or visiting the Louvre.
  • I also recommend shopping at Marché Arrigre, a little further east of the Marais and a few more steps from the Bastille, where you can find some good quality shops. The indoor marché is open until night time, although it takes a lunch break. It’s great to buy cheese and ham here and drink it in your room (9:00-13:00/ 16:00-19:30). You can also buy a few varieties of the famous Bordier butter in the cheese shop.
  • Anyway, I’d love to go to the miscellaneous, cheap marché! If you want to go to a party, Marche Joan Ville (7:00-2:30 pm) is a good place to go. But it’s a good place to go if you want to save money and have a party because there are too many people and the lot is too big. It’s not a good place to go as a tourist, it’s for the living.
  • If you want to go to Sacré Coeur in Montmartre, I recommend the Marche Couvert Batignolles, which is open no matter what the weather is and has a good selection (8:30-13:00 / 15:30-20:00).

I’ll write down the details of the five recommendations. I’ll list all the marchés in the second half of this article, so take a look at them all if you have the time.

Personally, I often go to La Motte Piquet Grenoule marché, which I don’t recommend here because the meat, fish, and cheese are good but the vegetables are not as good as they should be, but it’s good for everyday use for people who live in Paris.

This is an indoor marché in a suburban area. The Côte de Bouffes (loin steak with beef bones) was about 27 €, which is about 30% cheaper than what you’d get in the 7th arrondissement, but the outside wall of the marché is also quite graffiti-heavy and a bit less Parisian. There is a beautiful park nearby, so you can buy some snacks to eat in the park before you go.

Marché Saint-Eustache-Les Halles

The marché is held near the park in Les Halles. Best of all, it’s accessible. It’s a good place to go before you go shopping in the Marais, and it’s close to the area where they sell a lot of cooking equipment. It’s not very cheap or nice, but it’s open all day on Thursdays and until after noon on Sundays, which is convenient.

Marché Saxe-Breteuil


Photo©http://www.lesateliers.org/

This is a marché with a view of the Eiffel Tower, which I often visit as it is close to my house. I got a pack of coffee beans, a cappuccino and a cannula from the coffee beans shop, then went to the farthest grocery store from the Eiffel Tower to get some lettuce, and all the way back down the line to the crustacean shop where I buy things like blue crab in the fall and winter, and the oysters on sale in this line are delicious. There are two rows of shops at the Marché, one on the right side of the Eiffel Tower with a mushroom shop on the far right, and another that sells only seasonal produce such as apples, strawberries and cherries. There is a cake shop called Mori Yoshida’s, a short walk from the marché, and their cakes are also very delicious.

Marché couvert Beauvau (Marché d’Aligre)

This is one of the marchés I go to the most. I often take my friends there when they come, it’s a great place to see and reasonably priced. There is also a bakery called Blé sucré, famous for its croissants, and the best restaurant in Paris, Virtus (a Michelin star), is close by. There is a great cheese shop in the indoor marché, the larger of the two shops.

Marché Joinville

Anyway, the marché here was cheap. I asked for 500 grams of food in 1 kilo increments, but they said “you can’t do that”, and then they gave me 1.5 kilos as a freebie, and I couldn’t eat it all…(lol) Aligre is cheap, but I think this is the cheapest marché in Paris! If you want to stock up on food for a large number of people at a reasonable price, please do so. If you want to stock up on a lot of cheap food in a big group, come to this marché. If you go around here, I would recommend lunch at Paname Brewing Company, a little further along the Canal Saint-Martin. It’s a very cool shop facing the canal.

Marché couvert des Enfants Rouges


Photo©https://www.parisinfo.com/

It’s a marché in the Marais area, it’s indoors, and it’s a great place to have lunch here after you’ve done some shopping, since it’s indoors and there aren’t many days off. If the weather is nice, you can buy some prepared food here and eat it in the Parc du Temple, a little further west.This is the oldest indoor marché in Paris, built in 1615 and renovated in the 90s. The name comes from the color of the clothes of the orphanage (moved in 1777) that once stood next door. There is a very good bistro called “Les Enfants Rouges” nearby, which is also recommended.

Marché Maubert

This marché is right near La Maison d’Isabelle, the best croissant in Paris in 2018. It’s a convenient location, so you can go here in the morning, buy some fruit, croissants at Isabelle, have a picnic along the River Serre, then visit Notre Dame, Shakespeare Company, etc… It’s going to be a very pleasant day.

Marché Port-Royal

The marché on the south side of the Luxembourg Park. Right next to the museum of the French military health department. One of the open-air marchés that was created in the 1920s when the indoor marchés were closed. At the same time, Monge (1921) marchés Raspail (1920) and Télégraphe (1922) were created.

Marché couvert Saint-Germain


Photo©https://www.petitfute.com/

This marché is the most building-like of all the indoor marches. It’s in the St. Germain area and it’s easy to get to, but slightly more expensive. It’s a good place to stop when it’s raining or when you’re in the area, but it’s often crowded with tourists, so it’s all rather expensive. When we tried to buy a fruit, we were charged a premium without a cash register and the change was cheated, so it was a bad impression, but the fishmonger was a nice guy, but expensive.

Marché couvert Saint-Martin

It’s an indoor marché, but in an area I’m a little uncomfortable with. I don’t like the Strasburg St. Denis station because it smells like pee… the stuff they have isn’t bad and the prices are reasonable. I might stop by if I’m passing by, but I don’t feel like I need to go all the way there.

Marché couvert Saint-Quentin

The largest indoor marché in Paris. It’s a good place to stop by in the morning on a moving day because it’s close to Gare de l’Este and Gare du Nord. They have a lot of deli items, so it’s fun to buy a deli here and eat it while taking the TGV. The prices are a little reasonable. There are a lot of shops, so I recommend you to buy at the shops where the locals are lined up, because they don’t like expensive shops.

Marché Bastille

One of the largest marchés in Paris. It’s too big to go around, so I don’t know what kind of shops were there, but since it’s so big, I imagine you can find most of the things you need. If you get there early in the morning before 9:00 am and there is a long queue, you will be able to shop without any problems. My friend said, “The foie gras I bought here was really good”.

Why the marché in Saint-Honoré? It’s an area where you’ll want to say.Saint-Honoré is a street of world high brand stores. It’s open until night on Wednesdays and until the afternoon on Saturdays, so you can stop in while you shop. Nearby, I recommend Restaurant LUMEN, an Italian restaurant near the Louvre, which is really good. Highly recommended.

Marché Ledru-Rollin

The marché is located in an area close to the Canal Saint-Martin. You can buy some prepared food and bread here and eat along the Canal Saint-Martin. If you’re not planning to go to the canal and you’re looking for a good marché in the area, I’d recommend the Aligre’s marché.

Marché Porte Dorée

It’s affordable and the shoppers were all very friendly marchers. There’s a park in Vincennes just around the corner, so if the weather is nice, you can shop here and go to the park. There’s a patisserie called Vandermeersch just around the corner, so be sure to get a Kugloff here!

Marché St Eloi

Marche on the way to the Bastille from Place de la Nations. The prices aren’t too bad, but it’s not an area with anything to offer, and there are a lot of demonstrations around here on weekends, so I wouldn’t particularly recommend it. It’s a good place to go if you’re staying nearby.

Marché Maison-Blanche

The area has several good Asian restaurants. It’s affordable and has a nice atmosphere, but the location is inconvenient. You can stop by if you’re staying at the nearby train station on line 7, but if not, I wouldn’t particularly go there. There’s a lot of Vietnamese food around here, so if you’re going for it, I think your final destination should be here “Dong Tam”.

The marché is affordable and has a nice atmosphere. It’s small so you don’t have to go all the way there, but you can do it while you’re looking at the church of Jeanne d’Arc and the murals depicting Bach, for example, as the name implies. The children’s clothing outlet VenteEphemere is also less than a 10-minute walk away.

Marche near the flea market in Vanve. If you’re going on a Sunday, you can stop here and then go to the flea market. It’s affordable but not particularly good, so you don’t have to go there for this one, but if you want to go there while you’re at the flea market, this is a good place to go.

Marché Convention

The Marché de la Convocation has been recommended to me by someone who lives in Paris. It’s not moderately central, so it’s reasonably priced, and there’s also a Korean restaurant near here that his wife (who is Korean) likes best in Paris, Seongsan, and a pastry chef, Laurent Duchêne, who also works for a Japanese guy, is super tasty, so it’s a good idea to combine a lot of things. Buy some honey, spices, and cheese as a souvenir, have lunch at Songsang, and then stop at Duchêne’s for chocolate and croissants on the way home, etc…

Marché couvert de Passy

Passy is in an upscale residential area, very close to the Eiffel Tower and other landmarks, so it’s a nice place to live. The glass block windows and other elements of the atmosphere are also nice, so it’s nice to have lunch here and then walk in the afternoon to the Palais de Chaillot on the other side of the Eiffel Tower.

Marché couvert des Ternes

The marché is located a little further out in the suburbs. It’s safe to say that it’s open indoors, and they are open many business days, even on rainy days. There are several cafes along the street where you can have lunch. But if you want to get here, you can go to Marché Couvert de Levallois) (Tuesdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays: it’s wide open if you go from 7 to 1pm) on the other side of the same station, about a 10-minute walk away. They have a wide selection of products and are inexpensive. They also have various shops nearby.

Marché couvert Batignolles

This is an indoor marché in a suburban area. The Côte de Bouffes (loin steak with beef bones) was about 27 €, which is about 30% cheaper than what you’d get in the 7th arrondissement, but the outside wall of the marché is also quite graffiti-heavy and a bit less Parisian. There is a beautiful park nearby, so you can buy some snacks to eat in the park before you go.

Marché couvert La Chapelle

The Marche is located further north from Gare du Nord. The area may be a little bit difficult for Japanese tourists to visit, but there are many good shops around here. If you look at a partridge for 6€ per bird, I think you can get it for about 50-70% of the city price. If you go there, I recommend you to go to Cafe Romi beyond the overpass, or BOB’S BAKE SHOP in the south.

Marché Ney

The marché is located in the flea market at Clignancourt. It’s an affordable place, but it’s not a place you want to go unless you’re going to Clignancourt or something. If you go there, you should stop by La Recyclerie, which is a cute cafe. Sometimes they have a garage sale.

Marché Jean Jaurès

The Marché is located in Parc de la Villette, next to the Paris Philharmonic concert hall. If you need to go to either of these places, stop by. They are much cheaper than the city center. But it’s not an area I would go out of my way to visit unless I had to, so just do it when your schedule allows.

Marché Joinville

Anyway, the marché here was cheap. I asked for 500 grams of food in 1 kilo increments, but they said “you can’t do that”, and then they gave me 1.5 kilos as a freebie, and I couldn’t eat it all…(lol) Aligre is cheap, but I think this is the cheapest marché in Paris! If you want to stock up on food for a large number of people at a reasonable price, please do so. If you want to stock up on a lot of cheap food in a big group, come to this marché. If you go around here, I would recommend lunch at Paname Brewing Company, a little further along the Canal Saint-Martin. It’s a very cool shop facing the canal.

Marché Mortier

It’s affordable, but it’s in the 20th district and there’s not much to see around, so I don’t think you’ll be going there. If you’re staying in the area, go there. It’s not a tourist area and it’s a marché that gives you a sense of everyday life in Paris.

Marché Pyrénées

This might not be another area where people don’t have much to do. It’s not a big marché, so don’t bother going there, but if you’re in the area, there’s La Bellevilloise that hosts live music concerts along with this one. It might be fun to go to It’s open from noon to midnight on weekends.

Marché Réunion

It’s towards Père Lachaise Cemetery, so there doesn’t seem to be much to do in the area other than go to the graves or to Sot-l’y-laisse for lunch. If you’re in the area, make sure to stop by Sot-l’y-laisse if you’re there.
