  This is a WHOA place! It is huge to say the least. Everything is very.. very.. fresh..vegetables, fruits, fish, meat.  - Everything is very fresh.

  Always visit food markets when traveling... - Here in the former hangars, the surprise was great, very much alive where many people do their shopping for fish, meat and vegetables.The selection was plentiful and the fish section... read more was what made us linger the longest.Beautiful and tempting presentations of fresh ingredients.So different from the pre-packaged files from the grocery store.A few good fast food establishments are available, including a microbrewery.A short walk from the city.

  Central Market at Christmas  - Great place we usually visit at Christmas time. Wide choice of everything you need at your table during holidays. Including presents.

  Experiencing the market - Super cool place! I loved seeing all the different varities of food and products. It's really mind blowing that it can still be done this way. But it was all... read more fresh and ready. I bought a few hats, and the natives were nice!

  Good place for lunch  - Loved Riga’s Central Market. Located in the heart of Riga, former Zeppelin hangars, now transformed into food pavilions. Great mix of locals and tourists. The market is abundant with fresh... read more vegetables, fruits, and spices. Latvian meats, including ham and sausages, local fish and cheese. Tourists can enjoy local dishes like potato pancakes, pelmeni, and drink traditional kvass (non-alcoholic drink) and local 🍺 in cafes and quick-pick stores.

  Nice stop for a quick bite to eat.  - As a tourist there's only really a few bits for you, however I think if you're a local the wide range of fresh produce is fantastic!

  Does what it says on the tin – it’s a marketplace.  - This marketplace is set in some old adjoining Zeppelin hangers and they sell lots of fruit, flowers, meat, clothes etc.
It is open every day, but can get crowded... read more in parts but is quite interesting to wander round and there is are tons of fruit there. As in all markets there are pick pockets operating according to the commentary on the canal boat ride that we took. Whilst you are there try some of the halvah there. I only knew that they had sesame ones but here there are many other types.
This is also a good place to have a snack/lunch as it’s cheaper than the old town area.

  Riga Market trip  - Really interesting market, we went in March and it was quiet, which was good. Different halls had different produce. The outside market is good as well.

  The Best Market I’ve been at  - The market consists of 5 halls and it took us about 3-4 hours to go around and see all the goods and food there. We’ve had lunch in the food... read more court. We’ve found nice souvenirs. We bought the typical smoked fish for take- away. Also there we’ve taken fresh fruits. Prices are quite reasonable. Here one may find all typical foods and souvenirs from Riga. Highly recommend!
