Paris - Bastille Market Thursday

I see many positive comments on this market, but mostly about Sunday ....is the Thursday market similar, just smaller?

Any recommendations for snacks or even lunch?

Thanks!

Since 2017, on every trip to Paris, I have stayed steps away from the Bastille market. It closes a little earlier on Thursday than it does on Sunday and it is a little smaller with fewer sellers of non-food items.
For lunch, you could try Chez Margot on Blvd Henri IV, Les Temps des Cerise on Rue de la Cerisaie, Restaurant H on Rue Beausire, or Bistrot des Vosges on Blvd Beaumarchais. There are many good restaurants within a 5 to 10-minute walk of the market.

JHK, I’m actually most interested in the food, so Thursday actually would be better for me

I’m glad you mentioned Les Temps des Cerises as I do have that on my itinerary for when I explore Buttes Aux Cailles

Thank you !!!

The Les Temps that I am referring to is in Le Marais. I am not sure if it is related to or similar to the one in the 13th.
