Must visit market they have absolutely stunning staff.
Specially the sea market aria is very impressive. The minus is that they don’t have tables to enjoy your food there. There are table on the other section (cheese & meats). Go there hungry and enjoy.

Very impressive market. Always a bellwether for what a city is really like, the market is where the people are. A very impressive selection of meat, fish, fruit veg and other gastronomic goods.
At the meat market it was a good an example of using pretty much the entire creature as I’ve seen.
Outside more stall holders. All the people that I spoke to were friendly.

A massive market. The majority is the covered part, selling meats,fish, dried meats, vegetables, teas, apparel, herbal medicines/supplements and a supermarket inside. a lot of stuff I saw are very fresh and I bought some very fresh beef ribs which is so cheap (about USD14 per kg).

Huge market place with different areas for meat, dairy, fruit, veg, clothes and more and more and more.
This is a great place to explore, some of the stalls are full-time, some run by older folks selling their produce. There's an ATM inside as some of the stalls are cash only.
This is a must-visit for tourists and you can get just about anything there. There is even a little supermarket inside.
Souvenir stalls, women's coats, fur goods... there is so much there that I believe it is impossible to go there and not buy something. You can also get food and drink to revive yourself whilst shopping.
I do not know what else to say, go and visit. If you go to Riga and do not visit this market... you have not been to Riga.
Be aware that there is a seagull mafia working there that bullies the local pigeons. If you try and interrupt them - they will beat you up as well. I kid you not.

An absolute must visit place for all the foodies! You buy there fresh fish, fruit, vegetables, meat, bread, sweets, honey and many more delicious things. There’s also a food court where with wide selection dishes. The environment of the market is such unique as it’s inside the old zeppelin hangars. Especially if you love fish, don’t miss this place!

Nice location with multiple vendors offering similar or identical products. I assume because so many Rigans shop there, the prices must be competitive, not "tourist priced".
I do not know if the prices are competitive with other Riga shops in the area. The vendors seem to charge identical prices for identically packaged goods -- no price warfare here.

It’s a big market. Lots of souvenir shops, and counters where you can buy meat, fish and veg. There are several shops selling clothes and herbal remedies. Was okay, but didn’t feel that authentic.

There aren't many food options, but it's a good spot to experience the local vibe. We went for breakfast, but I wouldn't recommend it. However, the coffee at the coffee corner was of good quality and reasonably priced.
