Fantastic Neighborhood Outdoor Market: Marché Raspail
Location: Renne Métro Stop (crossroad of rue des Rennes and Blvd. Raspail)
Tuesday, Friday and Sunday mornings 8 a.m. – 1:30 p.m.
Bursting with high-quality epicurean delights, this thrice-weekly market attracts the city's top chefs and discerning foodies! Marché Raspail remains one of the most vibrant open-air food markets in Paris! Like other Paris markets, this one draws a broad cross-section of locals who regularly shop here for their weekly provisions. It has everything from fresh produce to dairy, meats, flowers, and prepared foods. Young children pedal their foot scooters while parents complete their purchases. Some older customers, aided by walking sticks, navigate the well-grooved path to their favorite vendors. There can be some tourists, but make no mistake, this market isn’t a tourist trap. It mostly caters to the appetites and needs of local residents.
Marché Raspail is one of over seventy open-air neighborhood food markets in Paris. Centrally located in the 6th arrondissement along boulevard Raspail, stretching from rue du Cherche-Midi to rue de Rennes, Marché Raspail is open every Tuesday and Friday morning all year long. On Sunday mornings, an organic market – “Marché Biologique Raspail” (or simply “Le Marché Bio”) – can be found in the same location, but with a different set of vendors who specialize in organic items.
At the regular market on Tuesdays and Fridays, one finds several stands selling vegetables and fruits, numerous cheese sellers, fishmongers, butchers, triperies, and more. Olives and nuts come in a variety of flavors and colors. The rôtisserie chicken is especially renowned … as its juices drip upon chunks of potatoes … as are the breads and savory pastries. Monsieur Grémillet sells foie gras in vacuum-packed cans that can be transported home for a taste of Paris well after vacation has ended. For immediate gratification, the food truck Cantine California serves up various options including kale chips.
It’s somewhat misleading to refer to these as “food markets” since the offerings are much broader. In addition to all the delicious foods, one can also find scarves, gloves, leather goods, health and beauty products, jewelry, and even furniture repair. A visit to Marché Raspail can easily be combined with a foray to the nearby iconic gourmet food hall, La Grande Épicerie, or to the Jardin Luxembourg for a perfect picnic!
The ‘Marché Bio’ is on Sunday mornings while the “regular” (non-organic) Marché Raspail is open Tuesdays and Fridays from 8 a.m. until 1:30 p.m. The nearest Métro stop is Rennes.
The apartment price is fully inclusive and includes once a week complimentary cleaning. ***Scroll down for property location map.
