On the Grid : Mercado de Coyoacán

"Coyoacán Market is one of the icons of this magical neighbourhood. If you want to get to know the daily life of an area, you must dive deeper into their markets, and this one in particular is famous for its color, folklore and tradition. In addition to finding every Mexican market basics like: vegetables, meat, groceries, raw materials, etc., the Mercado Coyoacán offers rich snacks, full meals, juices and smoothies, countless crafts, costumes for all occasions, traditional clothing, traditional Mexican toys, plants, gifts and even small birds (you name it). Hundreds of artists have walked its halls throughout time, but we want to highlight the constant walks of Frida Kahlo and Diego Rivera, then again, Coyoacán was their hood. The complex covers an entire block of Del Carmen colony, has 3 large ships and a roof arch type houses what was once a flea market on the street Xicoténcatl. A feature of this market is that every festival, tenants sell everything you need to decorate, cook and celebrate this feast. For example, during December it is common to find many stalls selling romeritos, candy and piñatas for the holidays; flowers in early November and costumes for the Day of the Dead; in September hats, flags and everything necessary to prepare national holidays." - Leolab

12 Best Markets in Mexico City for All Your Souvenirs | Condé Nast Traveler

"Established in 1921 (although the location has moved since), the Coyoacan Market, one of Mexico City's most iconic shopping destinations , has been selling everything under the sun from veggies to baskets for the better part of the 20th century. Whether you want to gawk at the rows of colorful products or snag some affordable textiles, this market is good for anyone who wants a truly local experience. Be warned that the shopping alleys are narrow, so stay away if you're not a fan of tight, crowded spaces." - Scarlett Lindeman, Lauren Stroh

Mexico City’s markets would surely deserve their own paragraph in this article, from Mercado San Juan to Mercado Medellin and Mercado San Cosme. There are also plenty of food stands around those markets, such as the quesadillas “Las Dieteticas” right around the corner from Coyacan Market: get the gordita de chicharron! There are also the Tostadas Coyacan at the back of Coyacan Market, where you should get the tinga and pulpo.

This is a mid-sized market with a variety of stalls ranging from fruit to tacos to souvenirs. It is not the most extensive in CDMX nor the best but it is in a great location. If you are a tourist and not looking to buy fresh produce you can grab some delicious tacos or take a walk around. Don't go out of your way to visit this market but if you are close it is worth a stop.

Massive and endless market selling everything under the Aztec sun and moon. I had a quick bite at the Tostadas Coyoacan establishment - one of the oldest eateries in the market. Our bike tour guide told us they have fresh food and make their beverages with bottled (not tap) water. So far so good! Loved the layers of cream and cheese on top of my tostada

Absolutely adore this place, very local I can see lots of people eating tacos, insect pizzas, incense, dried flowers, lots of paper mache skulls, excellent place for buying little souvenirs. So color I want to buy everything. Ally very small, some vendor doesn’t like photos, it’s not wet, doesn’t stink. Highly recommended.

Absolutely loved exploring the Coyoacán market. We had been on the search for tacos and this spot filled our needs. The guys preparing the tacos even offered us crickets 🦗 🫣 to try. My friend did - I did NOT. Fun experience in this market.

This market has a little bit of everything. There are different sections that have food stalls, various vendors, and fresh ingredients for cooking. Whatever you're looking for, you'll probably find it here.

Lively market with vendors selling meat, vegetables, freshly prepared food, flowers, clothes, spices, handicrafts. It's also a nice area with some well preserved buildings, squares close to this. The highlight for us was the food stalls especially one called Trinidad (great presentation and delicious food) operating from a small space but serving a rich variety

This market is totally worth the visit. I visited CDMX twice this year. I had to come back here. There are so many great stores to check out, and they accept cards in most places. I had the best tacos I've had in my entire life here. Be prepared to join a waiting list.

An absolute must visit if you are in the neighborhood for the Friday Kahlo museum. The market is only a 10 minute walk from the museum and offers a wide range of fresh produce, hot food stalls, and souvenirs for all. We went to the tostada restaurant towards the back of the first floor of the market and ate one of our favorite meals of the entire trip. They offer every tostada under the sun. Our favorites were the mariscos, mole de pollo, and ceviche. They also had an excellent horchata.

4 & 1/2.. This was probably my personal favorite of the city's great Mercados that we visited during our recent trip. This is owing to it's location smack in the middle of this iconic neighborhood most known for the wildly popular Frida Kahlo house but offering so so much more, as well as it's varied offerings of excellent crafts and clothing for the misses and perhaps most crucially of all, really exceptional foods for me! Much praise has been lauded on the tostadas on offer at the Tostadas Coyoacán stall and the hype is certainly legitimate. They were quite likely the best tostadas I've ever sampled, especially the pulpo and shrimp seafood varieties, with vibrant fresh seafood and vibrant spices and flavors atop perfectly crisply fried yet still remarkably light as air tortillas. Also exceptional was an absolutely massive full sized pizza sized chorizo topped Tlayuda, a sort of pizza-like delicacy from Oaxaca I had, along with some equally delectable carne asada topped sopes, both on bases of absolutely incredible blue corn tortillas slathered with a delicious mashed black bean puree at another stall whose name I unfortunately didn't properly record. We had planned a big dinner out at a pricey spot in Roma Norte but cancelled after this deliciously fully stuffing browsing late lunch. No booze on premises.

Yelp Review 2023 #70: This public market has everything. Food, ingredients to make food, souvenirs, clothes, fresh fruits and vegetables, piñatas, pool toys, and random things. Early in the morning, there are only a few stalls open but you avoid the crowd. You can get a meal - breakfast, lunch or maybe just a snack when you get hungry from shopping or window shopping. Bring pesos because this is a public market in Mexico - you can't expect vendors to take credit cards. Yes, even in the year 2020+. Everything here is cheap. Outside the market, you'll find vendors selling street food. There's a local's coffee shop.

Overrated and underwhelming! There are some great food and produce stalls but we found the rest of the stalls disappointing. There were only a few handicraft stalls and a lot of stalls selling cheap, mass-produced products.

This market is a maze in the best way possible. It is so fun to walk through perusing all of the various stalls selling souvenirs, pottery, fruits, veggies, food, drinks, you name it, they have it! It is very lively and can get crowded in part thanks to the narrow walkways, so pack your patience and enjoy the sights and sounds!

We were in Coyoacan for a day during our week in Mexico City, and we explored the Mercado for a bit between other attractions! It's a pretty large market - packed full of vendors selling food, crafts, and more - as well as some restaurants! it's a great place to explore if you're hoping to take some food souvenirs back with you (mole, masa, spices) or to try some fruits that aren't available in the U.S. or to grab lunch or just to wander! The markets in Mexico are incredible, and this market is worth a visit if you're in the area!

A must visit before or after visiting the Frida Museum! The vendors were friendly (and not pushy as some of the other markets I went to). They had a great selection of food, fruit, and local gifts! I went in the morning (around 9am) and it was not very crowded. MUST EAT: Madre Cocina Mexicana (they don't seem to have a Yelp yet, but going to create one!)

Out of all the markets I visited in Mexico City, Mercado de Coyoacan was the best one I visited. It had everything you'd want and more, without feeling overwhelmed. I highly recommend visiting this market if in the Coyoacan neighborhood. Located near the Frida house, Mercado de Coyoacan had a lot of vendors and items to shop for. Many of the vendors sell artisan goods, especially if you're looking for Frida-themed souvenirs. But a lot of the vendors had more eclectic items, like painted ceramic mugs and dishware, artwork, etc. Towards the middle of the market is where the food vendors are. Like most public markets, they have fresh items that you can buy there and cook later, like different spices or veggies, or there are vendors with fresh, hot, prepared food for dine-in and take-out. Lots to choose from here! I highly recommend visiting Mercado de Coyoacan, as this market features many different vendors in a lively, fun neighborhood. Glad to have checked out this public market.

For over 100 years, this market has gathered vendors selling art, produce, food and other items. Mask up and wander the narrow aisles to find all sorts of treasure. If you're in the area, visit! Go on a Saturday and find an outdoor market where local artists sell paintings.

We had our first ever dinner here last night. Server was nice, food came fast. A little higher price than other Mexican restaurants we have been to but feel the amount of food and the authenticity of the food definitely make it worth the price. My daughter and I had fajitas for 2, absolutely perfect. I am not a refried beans fan and actually ate their beans and rice, something I never do at a Mexican restaurant. The ones they served had a great flavor and did not taste like bean paste. I would definitely recommend eating here.

This place is located in the market and it's brightly colored yellow stall. The staff was extremely nice and the food came out fast and was delicious and fresh! I would definitely check this place out if you're in town for a 30 pesos tostado!

I went to like 4-5 markets in CDMX and I think this was my favorite one. It's a little lower key than some of the others but it's still chock full of tasty things where you can just sort of graze. If you're visiting, you probably will (and should) go to the Frida Kahlo House and if you're going there, you need to come here too since it's only a few blocks away.

When you're in Mexico City, you must visit Coyoacan, south of downtown. It's a neat, little neighbourhood full of culture and good food. I was ready to try some restaurants but ended up having an amazing meal right here at the mercado. As you walk in from the front, you will first pass by many stalls selling fruits and vegetables. The taco stands will appear further in, all equipped with counter seats and displays of salsas. I was so glad that I waited until I walked to the very end, where the biggest taquiera emerged before my eyes. I'm sorry that I forgot the name but it's simply the busiest place there. You won't miss it. It's a family business with grandpa at the cashier handling the money, dad at the counter serving the succulent meat, and grandson working the crowd. I chatted with the grandson who spoke good English, and he explained how they serve just about every part of a pig there. I played it safe and had some tacos with beef briskets. A nice surprise when they served it with a generous piece of pig skin that was amazingly crispy and flavourful. The family next to me ordered a large piece of meat and fresh avocados. I wish I had more friends eating with me so that I could try more items. For the price, it is really the best experience I had in Mexico when it comes to eating tacos. Muchas gracias!

Super amazing market right by the Frida Khalo museum (about a 4 min walk). It was filled with delicious fruits, foods, and beautiful goods. It was an incredibly beautiful place filled with delicious aromas and lots of life. We walked through for about 30 minutes before deciding where to eat. We decided on a small place called Covina Martha's Local. It was delicious! We went specifically to try the Chile En Nogada and were not disappointed. We also got esquites from a woman right outside the market--best I've ever had. Also, we tried the mamey fruit from one of the stands. Great place to walk around and grab a bite to eat before or after the museum. It is also very close to a huge park that is surrounded by more delicious food!

We were in Coyoacán for the Frida Khalo Museum and wanted to check out this Mercado beforehand. It was still early in the morning so it wasn't too busy, but it seems like an overall more quiet Mercado than other ones we've been to. We decided to eat a quick breakfast at one stand and shared a pozole and pollo quesadilla- both were simple, delicious and cheap! We got to sit up at a bar, watching the food getting cooked which made it fun. We were in a hurry so we couldn't explore all too much but it seemed like there was a lot of souvenirs and other great things to eat.

We went to Mercado de Coyoacan primarily to eat. Our mistake was to sit down at one stall and order an entire meal. I wish I had known better and just ordered a bit at each place. The food was hearty and 95% of the people there were Mexican (always a good sign). After feasting on blue corn tortilla gorditas, tacos, and huaraches, I got a carnitas sample from another part of the market and ended up getting an amazing carnitas taco (served with a side of chicharron). While two of us ate, my other friend roamed around the market and purchased some souvenirs like tortilla holders and embroidered shirts.

Being an American this was a little overwhelming. It was very close to the Frida Kahlo Museum so we thought we wild walk over and see if we could find gift for friends, family and ourselves. Not speaking much Spanish, I feel as we got charged more than a local (of course). The options were not exactly what I wanted but found some cute dresses for our nieces and cute women's tops. We are at a large tostada place, which was great! They had a mushroom options, which made me happy! My boyfriend had a spiced chicken tostada. If I was to go back to this market (or any of their market) I would take a Spanish speaking friend.

Super crowded. Selection is repetitive and the variety is minimal. Do not recommend; go to Baazar del Sabado instead.

Mark this as one of your stops in Your Coyoacan excursion! Whether you are looking for fresh goods or a casual meal, this indoors market will provide. The Coyoacan Market has so many booths of fruits, butchers, and even bar-style restaurants! In fact, even if you don't intend to shop or eat, this local market is worth stopping by. But if you are hungry, you definitely won't leave empty-stomach once you enter. Here, you will find at least two large seafood bar-style restaurants, like the yellow-bannered Toscadas Coyoacan where you choose from many locally-made delicacies like ceviche. This place is definitely more geared for locals - so the prices are locally cheap as well!! Be prepared to use only cash though. This is also one of the few places that also have paid restroom in Coyoacan, but whether you are looking to buy fruits or food or simply use the restroom, there are plenty of reasons to take a local into the local life of Coyoacan in this terrific market! --- tl;dr version: 1) Local indoors market with many fruit and food booths 2) Worth checking out during your Coyoacan excursion

An authentic Mexican Mercado with a great mix of food, artesanías (crafts) and very clean. I highly recommend the "Las Originales Tostadas Coyoacán." The serve a great array of tostadas and aguas frescas at very reasonable prices.

This was a very cultural and authentic Mexican Mercado. It was also very Instagram-able for those of you who like to do it for the IG. We got lost in all the colorful piñatas and could hear guitar players and men singing in Spanish as we walked around looking at bracelets and Luche Libre masks for souvenirs. We also got a couple delicious tostadas and real fruit juice drinks as we walked around. Definitely worth the bookmark!

We were really looking forward to eating at this Mercado. Tried various things including licuados and fresh juice and tortas for breakfast at a stand called Alexis jugos y cócteles. My husband also got coffee from a cute little coffee stand. So Delicious and absolutely lovely servers. After our visit to the blue house we walked back for lunch and some shopping. We ended up at the famous tostadas Coyoacán and had tostadas de tinga, one of my favorite tostadas which is shredded chicken breast cooked in a spicy tomato sauce and topped with lettuce, cheese crumbles, Mexican crema and avocado. Simply delicious with agua fresca de fruta. We did some shopping at the fruit stands and met some lovely people working their stands.

If you are visiting Mexico City and you want to try real quesadillas in a traditional market, this is the place you MUST go. All variety of ingredients for your quesadilla, try blue corn tortilla, you will love the flavor! They offer more Mexican cuisine dishes other than quesadillas too.

This marketplace in Coyoacán has so many food options! We were delighted with tacos de bistec, flautas, chile rellenos, and nopales. Once you're done eating you can shop for just about anything from fresh fruit to jewelry. Excellent

Loved this market. So much local food, minimal tourist stuff. I found the cutest, most feeble chef and her food made me swoon, especially her mole that felt like I was cruising on a boat, her fruity salsa picante that I put a spoonful in every fold of tortilla I had, and her yummy rice. So yummy. Would definitely recommend a trip here for anyone staying in CDMX for more than a few days.

This might easily be one of my favorite places in the world (in addition to being located in my favorite neighborhood). Go HUNGRY. If you're looking for crafts, this is not your market. If you're looking to get down on some amazing and insanely cheap food, you've come to the right place. Highly suggest making a full walk through the market before you decide what to eat. I had bomb ceviche. Tostadas looked amazing. Also, everyone is SO nice.

An indoor farmer's market that sells everything. There are food stalls with foods or delicacies to satisfy anyone's hunger or curiosity. Most vendors were friendly, not pushy. A food vendor even gave my family some free chacherrones, yummy. This place was a fun maze that I will gladly visit again, we might even do lunch here.

A delight to find. Fresh produce, nuts, meat as well as great little food stalls. Great for a local newly moved to Coyoacan from China where there are a multitude of wet markets round every corner.
