How Baby-Friendly is Jean Talon Market?

Stroller access is good, yet only one damaged changing table and no nursing room mean parents must improvise, so visits may feel stressful at peak times.

Very accessible, though crowds make it difficult to maneuver at peak hours. Perfect date spot, lots of options, enjoy local vendors and artists (live music and b...

Great market for both fruits and veggies plus a large fresh plant section. The nicest produce ,beautifully presented. Most are locally sourced. The vendors are friendly and helpful, and most accept credit card payments. Super nice way to send a morning or afternoon. There are also cheese and meat purveyors.
