Jean-Talon Market | Montreal’s Iconic Market Near Salon Deauville
Jean-Talon Market (Marché Jean-Talon) is one of the oldest and largest open-air public markets in North America, and it sits right in the heart of Montreal’s Little Italy neighborhood | just a short drive from Salon Deauville, Montreal’s top-rated hair salon.
Founded in 1933, Jean-Talon Market has been a gathering place for Montrealers for nearly a century. Located at 7070 Avenue Henri-Julien, the market occupies an entire city block and attracts thousands of visitors every week | locals picking up fresh produce, tourists soaking in the atmosphere, and food enthusiasts hunting for Quebec’s finest seasonal ingredients.
About Jean-Talon Market
The market is open year-round, though it truly comes alive from May through October when local farmers set up outdoor stalls overflowing with Quebec strawberries, blueberries, corn, tomatoes, and maple products. The permanent indoor section features specialty shops offering cheeses, meats, spices, baked goods, flowers, and international ingredients.
Popular vendors include Birri (specialty olive oils and vinegars), Chez Louis (fine cheeses), Première Moisson (artisan baked goods), and numerous seasonal fruit and vegetable stands. The surrounding streets are dotted with Italian cafés, restaurants, and delis that reflect the neighborhood’s heritage as Montreal’s Little Italy.
The market is also a hub for food events, cooking demonstrations, and seasonal celebrations. The Marchés Publics de Montréal manages the market and provides vendor information, event schedules, and seasonal guides.
