$
Known forfood marketopen-airSunday marketlocal favorite

One of Paris's largest and most beloved open-air food markets, stretching along Boulevard Richard-Lenoir every Thursday and Sunday morning. Sunday is the unmissable day, drawing serious cooks for exceptional produce, cheese, charcuterie, and rotisserie chickens. The quality is genuinely high and the atmosphere buzzy without being a tourist trap. Arrive before 11am for the best selection; it winds down and clears out by 1:30pm.
