More markets in Ghent
Cuberdon Stalls at Groentenmarkt ★ 4.3
The competing cuberdon vendors near the Groentenmarkt are a Ghent institution: the pointed purple sugar-and-gum cones are the city's most identifiable sweet.
Tip: The rival stalls have been on the square for generations; both are genuine and the competition keeps the quality high.
Ghent Christmas Market Food Stalls ★ 4.2
Ghent's Christmas market spreads across Korenmarkt and Sint-Baafsplein from late November, with food stalls, warm drinks, waffles and winter snacks.
Tip: The Ghent Christmas market is smaller and less crowded than Brussels; the cathedral backdrop makes it one of Belgium's most scenic.
Vrijdagmarkt ★ 4.3
Ghent's oldest market square hosts a weekly Friday morning market with fresh produce, flowers, street food and local traders in a medieval square setting.
Tip: Arrive before 09:00 for the widest selection; Frituur Jozef nearby opens with the market for a proper frites breakfast.
Groentenmarkt ★ 4.4
The historic vegetable market square near the castle has been the city's primary produce hub for centuries, with stalls selling fresh vegetables and herbs.
Tip: The square also hosts Himschoot bakery (1880) and Tierenteyn mustard shop, making it the core of any Ghent food walk.
Sint-Jacobsmarkt ★ 4.0
Sint-Jacobs is Ghent's major antique and flea market, held three mornings a week near the Dominican church, with food and artisan produce stalls on Sundays.
Tip: Pair the Sunday market with brunch at a nearby Patershol cafe; the timing aligns well with 09:00 openings.
Tierenteyn-Verlent Mustard Shop ★ 4.7
Tierenteyn-Verlent has been making mustard at Groentenmarkt 3 since 1790: the barrel-drawn Ghent mustard is the city's most well-known culinary product.
Tip: Bring your own jar to have it filled from the original barrel; the shop charges less for refills than for new pots.
