It can get a bit warm and crowded in there on a Saturday, but it's hard to beat such a large selection of fresh produce, cheese, breads, and meats in one place. There are plenty of organic options there as well. It's an interesting place to pick up fresh food for a snack or to make as a meal later,... more

St. Lawrence Market has a lot to offer the serious foodie and the curious tourist alike. It is quite the eclectic mixture of fresh produce, meats, and prepared foods that range from simple baked goods to diverse ethnic delicacies from around the world. Grab some freshly prepared calamari at the back of the ground floor to take care of the... more

We visited the market every day for breakfast - crepes on lower floor and freshly squeezed juice too. Great value for money. If we'd been in the area for lunch we would have gone back as there is lots of choice and great value. Must be great for locals to choose all the local produce - meat, fish, veg etc. more

We went here for an hour or so. The markets are pitched at tourists, and it showed with both the crowds moving around, and the products pitched at people. The quality of the produce varied tremendously, as did the prices; I spent considerably more than was anticipating for an indoor market in North America. The shop downstairs selling t-shirts with... more

I really enjoyed the market, though I wished for more coffee shop options here. I found one in the basement that seemed ok, coffee was good, but small sized cup that didn't fit the holder was overpriced. The peameal bacon sandwiches at Carousel Bakery was excellent, a great way to star the morning. If I had one complaint I felt... more

Great place to shop. Breads, sprouts, candy, nuts, fruits, meats, so much more. What a great marketplace. Parking around the corner in a garage. Cookies were excellent. more

Fun - loved it - good eats! Not much more to say...ask around to confirm your choice of "best Peameal" sammy before sauntering up to just any old booth. Did I mention FREE SAMPLES and REALLY COOL people? One of the best (and inexpensive) experiences of our weekend in Toronto. If you love exploring food and culture --- don't miss... more

If I lived in Toronto, I would be at this market every week to score my groceries. There are more than enough vendors for cheese, produce, meats, and seafood - and all of it looks wonderful and fresh. All the food stalls are good, but I especially enjoyed the peameal sandwiches sold on the main level of the market. I'm... more
