  The Heart of Riga  - The market is incredible! There was a variety of produce at great prices. I had some strawberries and cherries that were to die for. There were also fun trinkets to... read more buy, like nesting dolls, amber jewelry, and beaver fur hats. The market is truly the heart of Riga and I would encourage anyone who has the change to go!

  Massive markets are a must see in Riga  - The food markets located in the old Zeppelin hangers are a must see when visiting Riga. There are fruit stands on the outside and five hangers full of stalls... read more inside. We bought some berries and pastries for breakfast, but were unable to get any of the smoked meat, fish or sausages except for deli meat for sandwiches for our bus trip. I liked to just amble around and look at all the food items common in Riga that we don’t have access to in the U.S.

  Worth a morning visit - Located 10 minutes walk from old quarter and station. Apparently buried market in Baltic’s spread across a number of market halls (one under renovation at visit) as well as many... read more stalls outside the falls. Foods, cafes, hardware, souvenirs across the halls. Like all local markets, worth a visit to see local produce. Best to go in the morning when produce is best and slightly quieter than early evenings apparently. .

  Riga Central Market - Interesting Central Market right by the bus and railways stations in old world war 2 hangars. Each hangar has a speciality (fish, meat etc) whilst the market continues outside of... read more the hangars as well. Well worth a visit.

  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. The fruits, the vegetables, the fish.. and the variety of fish is just amazing. There are several bakeries and cheese makers and sellers. There is prepared... read more food to eat there or to carry on. It is a WHOA place. Bring cash. Not all accept credit cards

  Local market  - Typical big local market, it was close to our hotel so we spent a couple of hours there. Good selection of local produce but nothing amazing

  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!

  Loved it.  - Probably my favorite thing I did in Riga, love going to these types of markets when I visit major cities and seeing what the locals eat.

It's a large... read more area over multiple sheds, each have a great range of things being sold, catering for mainly locals you get great prices and variety, I had lunch here most days and the choices were very good.

Note that it's not just inside but outside stalls, also great for daily fruit and veggies!!

  Huge! Go early. - Riga Central Market is situated in the heart of Riga, a short walk from the Old Town. It is one of the largest marketplaces in Eastern Europe. Huge!... read more Clean. I literally went to browse. At Riga Central Market, you can buy Latvian-grown and homemade products, exotic fruit and spices, as well as manufactured merchandise. The market includes various pavilions each with its own category from vegetables, dairy, meat, fish and gastronomy products, as well as an outdoor area with stalls and stands. There are also places where you can get a bite to eat. I went around 12:30 in the afternoon. It was busy, but not as busy as I expected. However, I would suggest going earlier. Most of the stalls were open but some of the fruit and vegetable stands were starting to close and produce was limited. I didn't experience it or feel threatened but I hear that pickpockets are rife so be careful with belongings.
