Why go

Mercato delle Erbe retains the feel of a practical shopping hall even as parts have become places to eat. The present building follows the market’s early 20th-century move to Via Ugo Bassi and later reconstruction. Go while fresh-food stalls trade if you want the market itself, rather than only a restaurant visit.

What to look for

  • Browse the produce, cheese and meat stalls in the covered market.
  • Notice the scale of the central market hall around the food trade.
  • Pause at the food counters as well as the fresh-food stalls.

Useful to know

  • Via Ugo Bassi 25; individual stall and restaurant hours vary.
  • Allow about 55 minutes; confirm hours or conditions at the official venue before setting out.
