About St. Lawrence Market

St. Lawrence Market is a food lover’s destination: rows of vendors offer fresh produce, meats, cheeses and ready‑to‑eat specialties in a lively indoor market. It’s a great place to taste local flavours, pick up picnic supplies or shop for gourmet souvenirs. The market’s energetic atmosphere—especially on weekends—pairs well with nearby historic streets and food tours. Be ready to sample classics, ask vendors for recommendations and arrive early to beat lines for popular stalls.
