Best place to buy souvenirs as they all are mych cheaper than everywhere else. Food is on the ground floor, clothes and stuff are upstairs . Cash only . ATM is nearby.

Veljanova????

The excellent market , everything is here! If you see the low prices of goods necessary to you, you don't need to hurry up to buy it. Walk still, far away, perhaps, you will find even cheaper.

Anton Klink

Good selection of food items on the first floor. For souvenirs , obviously skip the stalls closest to the main entrance as prices get progressively cheaper towards the back.

Thanos Antonis. ????????????☕????

Budapest's central market is a good place to buy local products . If you want to buy souvenirs or eat in the upper floor just prefer places outside market with better prices and better quality food !!

Daniel Bauer

One of the must see places and great opportunity to buy some tasty Hungarian souvenir ????

Alex Pyatetsky

If you like amazing produce, skip the super markets and come straight here. When you walk in, go to the left side. Right side is more touristy . There's a lot of meat, fish and dairy in basement .

Zsuzsanna Miklósi

although a touristy place, the produce is surprisingly cheap and great quality, come here for cheap exotic fruits or just regular seasonal things . there's a big Aldi downstairs.

Architecture of the building is great,inside it's full of butchers with all types of meat (you've never tasted before I bet),fruit&veg shops,paprika & spice shops,they got also souvenirs and sweets...

Regina Boros

Ele Gagnidze 유

Worth visiting. Paprika is cheapest here. Make sure to buy from people from the second raw. Walk around a little. Hungarian souveniers on the 2nd floor. Exchange place is next to main entrance.

Kevin Donahoe

Very fresh fruits for VERY cheap ! I had the largest apple I've ever seen (highly recommended: on ground floor, red Italian apple )

The Ritz-Carlton

Located at the end of the famous pedestrian shopping area, Váci Street; the stunning indoor market is an architectural treasure trove of fresh vegetables , fruits , meat, fish and culinary delicacies

Roman Novotný

Krista Elza Putniņa

Worth a visit, many delicious foods to choose from! Also nice paprika stands, but walk through all of them, because some of them are cheaper than others!

Alyssa G.

Upstairs start your day with a shot of Unicum (local digestive) and then a garlic langosz (fried dough ) and then you are ready to browse through the vast array of meats, vegetables , and pickled goods

Nantia Modsy

Cult place,u can feel the energy&the local vibes,u can buy souvenirs&eat on the top floor.We were there Tuesday&it was so crowded ,I guess because it was lunch time.We tried langos ,heavy&too expensive

Rachel Castillo

At the end of the first block of stalls, don't miss where they sell Túró Rudi, a semi-sweet cottage cheese covered in chocolate (red-and-white polka-dot wrapper).

Fresh fruit and vegetables . As a vegetarian I love this place. There's all sorts of seeds and grains too

Niels. Don't forget to eat a Langos upstairs . Best in town !Go for the famous Hungarian lángos upstairs on the right side. Eat it with tejföl (sour cream ) and sajt (cheese ).

Filip

And old fashioned food market for tourist and locals, nice to buy some eatable souvenirs or to try local food.

min

The central market in the city has a lot of traditional places to eat. It’s touristy , but still found the food tasty. The shops on the second floor, right side, closest to the front.

Nabil Bazzari

Lovely indoor farmer market with local produce and some small restaurants . When done make sure to walk the charming Vaci u street next door.

Jihye K

On the 1st floor you can taste lots of yummy Hungarian food ! Just don't forget that you will pay extra for each, small, things. Ex) sauce etc. Be careful when u'r ordering Goulash on the bread ????

Ter Ams

Everything is good here. All fresh fruits veggies and a lot of meats. Go upstairs for clothing and other non food stuff.

Kata Varga

Biggest traditional hungarian market place in Budapest. Beautiful building, big selection of Hungarian specialities. Upstairs you can even try some fast food .

Here you can find salami and sausages . Also a lot of vegetables . On the 1st floor you can find touristic things. Try the langos . . A little over priced but very tasty.

A culinary delight. Great place to get acquainted with Hungarian cuisine. Don't miss the lower ground floor more to discover down there.

Great prices for food and souvenirs . The place also is a perfect gathering place. There are also two ATM 's in case you need more cash.

Al-abdulgadir Talal

You can explore the Great Market Hall on a guided tour , followed by a cooking class when you learn to make typical Hungarian dishes in a modern cooking school.

Christos Devaris

Visit this local market to buy local food and souvenirs . Looooot cheaper than the airport ! There is also food on the 2nd floor, you could try the Làngos .

Cafe/bar (panorama bar ?) upstairs offers good coffee and cheap wine . What more can you ask ? :) of course, cheese and sour cream langos is must

Ismail Alacaoğlu

Nice market . On second floor there are small buffets where you can find hungarian traditional food . Try them, quite good.

Kyriakos G. ???? ????

The souvenir shops are more expensive than others outside. The food stores on the upper floor is also expensive and very touristy . Only the meat stores are worth visiting.

Laszlo Koczy

Please remember that while you are standing in the middle of the road in awe, some people want to do their grocery shopping in ten minutes as they have to rush to pick up their kids from school.

Ariana Voyer

Very crowded and not great signage once you are there. Mostly paprika products, meat counters and produce. A few pastry places too. Wouldn’t plan on the market for a meal, but worth a look around.

Vasilis Kolovos

Great place to visit and shop. Choose from all types of salami and sausages and try the food stands on the second floor.

Péter Ujvári

This is the best market in Budapest. Handmade Hungarian meals with strong quality.

Justin Adams

Good place to find all thing local, fruit , veg , meats and all sorts of edibles downstairs, souvenirs and chow upstairs . Paprika all over the show, as a side note.

Paisano0506

Food stands are located upstairs , any of the stands will serve really good food. Tables are located on the corridor. Most places are cash only but they take € or $ however the rate is low so use HUF

Thymios Dragotis

Great selection of meat and veggies . don't go to the upper floor, u can find cheapest stuff outside .
