Carolyne Leroux

Great local vendors...and it keeps growing.

Niall McKee

Such a fun place to visit! great family outing as well. bring lots of money you will want everything. have a local roasted coffee or eat from the local breakfast joint. so many cool local artisans. highly recommend. get there early for best selection. fall is the best time of year as all the farmers have local produce.

Lynne Tyrie

Amazing place full of local vendors. Fresh food and artisans. Places to eat delicious food and quite impressive coffee.

Vivian Okafor

Great for fresh local products

Paul Acree

I enjoy shopping in a friendly, bustling atmosphere, supporting the local economy. I also enjoy disappearing into a comfortable, quiet corner to enjoy coffee with a friend. You can easily accomplish both goals here.

Talia Kean

Love the market

Cody Angus

Great way to spend a Saturday morning.

Shelby's Shitzu

Lots of products from the area grown/made/crafted by great people. It's a little expensive but I just pick and choose my most favourites an stay within my budget. It's hard though because there's just so much awesome stuff there. Beware not all products are home grown. In times of shortages they have been known to buy from the Supermarket and pass it off as homegrown and charge homegrown prices.

Colin Hunter

Great place to go for breakfast on Saturday

Sean Irwin

Nathan Armstrong

My home away from home

EpicSamurai Plays

Everyone there was kind and generous, most of the food I got was tasty, I will definitely be returning, I can most certainly see myself returning weekly or even twice weekly, it seems to almost always be a good time there from what I heard, but if you are making plans to go there in summer on a Saturday make sure you show up very early, as the parking lot is likely to fill up very quickly so keep that in mind

Jacob Comor

Good vibes.

Shawn P

Great local shopping.

Roy Stock

rabsalan

Wish it were bigger

Sharon Symonik

The lettuce is fresh, food is homemade and fresh and healthy, the employers are all friendly, and respectfull. I really like buying the peanut butter marshmallow squares, the herbal cheese, lots of varieties and selections to choose from, I'm satisfied. Lots of fresh apples to make apple sauce and apple squares, fresh hydro tomatoes, the cabbage rolls are fresh with fresh tomatoes sauce, tender soft cabbage, the perogies are fresh and homemade. Lots of flavors to chose from. There's dessert perogies with fruit, loads of cheddar, ones with beets. Lots of selections. The soup is fresh. There's Cheddar and broccoli, best borsht, homemade soap and bath baking soda balls that smell like bubble gum, like flowers. All natural. The bread is freshly baked, It's all worth it. The tea is good, the candy and chocolates taste great. They like to test samples. My favorite farmers market, the music is good.

George Grant

Doug Stanton

Loaded with local handmade gifts and farm products.

Magdalena Barys

Cute little market and very busy.

Nathan

The country market is a go to for anyone visiting Thunder Bay looking for authentic Thunder Bay items. Good for getting your "game" meats such as rabbit, deer, elk and moose. Also has excellent smoked fish at the front. Some vendors are seasonal so be careful. Most vendors are willing to bargain as well.

Che Riv

Thunder Bay is killing it with their market. One of the best in Canada ♡

Charmaine Barton

TWO floors and I don't think there's an elevator. But on the main floor there are lots of food vendors; milk, flour, meats, bakery, etc. The second floor has T-shirts, candles, Pie-ology, and hand-crafts. Some think the prices are high, but if you view everything as being "artisinal" then the prices are reasonable. Mist vendors are willing to discuss where they've sourced their materials so you can make a more informed decision, which is rather hard with chemically laden national brands.

TW

Amazing selection of local vendors. Great place for some breakfast.

Leslie Anness

excellent venders

Becky Suttle

Local grown and made product. Good atmosphere. Open year round. Good for a family activity.

nameless

I wish people wouldn't just stop and talk in the middle of the Isles. The place is wall-to-wall with people when you stop because you see someone you know everyone else has to stop to.

Brenden L.

Wish it was open more! Great selection and I try and buy the majority of my groceries here now. Delicious farm fresh meats and veggies!

S M Raisul Islam

The good old freshness of country

Great market! Open year round. Theres is a lot of different vendors to check out. In the main building there is two floors. The lower has all your food and the upper has mire more clothes and crafts.

Sharon Herman

It's awesome

Zach Dokuchic

What's the Thunder Bay Country Market you ask? Well only the best place in town to get all sorts of great local food. Anything ranging from hand-made chocolate, some deadly old school pierogis, to some of the best local veggies and meat I've ever had! Even if you don't buy something, you should come by and experience everything, it's great!

Greyson Evans

Fresh local food and great arts show

Chuck Steak

Love the various food options, and the handmade items at Early Snows Pottery, as well as other booths. My almost 4-yr old daughter looks forward to going every week now.

Aaron Leiterman

Great place to socialize and shop local food and craft vendors.

Trans-Continental Rail Fan

The best place for locally sourced products from the Thunder Bay area! I recommend going to the Chocolate Cow!

Janine Walker

It's a nice little market. Found a really pretty throw rug from a local crafter that I wasn't even looking for.

Lauren MacKay

Very busy! But that's because it is very popular and fantastic. Everything smells so delicious I'm sure I could spend hours in this market. Information booth at the main entrance very helpful if you are looking for something specific and want to get in and out quickly. Also the cinnamon buns at Northern Unique are to die for!!

Rocca13 Cat

My wife and I visit this place twice a month - regularly every Saturday. The place offers a variety of farm-fresh produce, dairy, crafts, knick-knacks, clothings/apparels and other stuff you won't normally find in a department store or grocery.

Adam

Definitely a place to check out. It's a gathering of local farmers, chefs, and artists from town selling food and art. It runs twice a week most of the year - Wednesday afternoons and Saturday mornings.

AhhhTube

Great market! Lots if excellent local produce, honey, jams, meats, dairy, baking, and amazing handiworks by local craftspeople. Also yummy food and coffee. Can't beat it. Lots of free parking too.

Marcel Tardif

So much to get here from fresh fruits and vegetables to art work. Stained glass. Wood bowls cutting boards rag rugs. And so much more 2 floors of awesome talented hard working people and there personal touch on every part of it. A must see and experience.

Lisa Haessler

Fantastic variety of locally made or grown goods. Here you'll find pantry staples, fresh veg and baking, fish, poultry, pork, beef, elk, maple syrup, hand pies, fresh pasta and soups, jewelry, pottery, art, clothing, knitting.... the list goes on and on. Best selection is on Saturdays but get there early. Its really busy by 10 am. Wednesdays are much less crowded but 2nd floor is closed. The Red Head + The Chef's Wednesday night dinner specials are fantastic!

One of our favourites to go and get locally made & grown products. A little pricey for some things but worth it for the quality and to support the community. Something for everyone and always something new to discover. Runs twice a week …

The market was amazing. Amazing products, wonderful people and even got to see friends that I haven't seen in a long time. Worth going to.

Scott Mol

The market is the best!! The vendors for offer a wide range of great local products.

Abi Normal

Food vendors only due to covid restrictions .. still, nice to go to the market to get some normalcy back in life. ????

ROLLIE CAT

Place to buy fresh veggies/produce. However, items are too excessively priced... portions are too small to appreciate its true value. In comparison,. so-called "organic" veggies sold in supermarkets may not be truly organic but they actually last the same time as those sold in this farmers' market, as I've tested them several times whenever I find this market closed. I noticed too that, except for those priced at $4, most of the produce they sell are $5 or. more.. Oh, well.. No further comments!

Chris Kari-halwachs

Not toobad great selection

Erin Skoropad

Always great!

Robert Larrett

First time there and loved it!
