This market makes me feel like I'm back in Cincinnati at Findlay Market. The vendors are all super nice and the selection of produce, nuts, spices, meat, etc, is excellent. I am still finding my way around all of the different stalls, but that is part of the fun because I discover something new each time. I really can't imagine shopping at a supermarket in Mexico City with an option like this nearby.
The honesty of the people in the market was really amazing. I kept making mistakes and they always gave me back the correct change. I'm very happy about that. Also, the people here are very agreeable.
Years before it was a real market where you can buy vegetables fruit meat chiken etc. But nowadays most of this ex market is for selling food and meals including seafood. The quality is more or less. Not very clean. And not cheap. There are few real market stands.
I like the Guanajuato market more than this,but this one is similar however it’s smaller but it has everything you can imagine
Everything here was amazing! There's so many different options to choose from and the prices are great. There's definitely an option for anyone when it comes to eating no matter what your dietary lifestyle is. I plan on making another stop for more delicious authentic Mexican cuisine.
The market is located within walking distance from the historic center, in a less touristy part of town. Although not as big and hectic as La Merced or as spooky as Sonora - San Juan market was still a lot of fun. Had some delicious crispy chicken tacos and pigged out on chicharron. If you find yourself in Mexico City, this is a must visit market. And don't forget to explore the neighborhood while you're at it!
San Juan is the premier place to get your gourmet foodstuffs in Mexico -- fresh turkeys, duck, ostrich, suckling pig, etc. You can also get super fresh seafood. one stall you can even BYOB and get sashimi made right there. The prices are well above average Mexican prices, so go only for the hard-to-find ingredients. Many places deliver or take pre-orders.
