Weekly shopping for gourmets — to the market with the S-Bahn Berlin

Wether wet and cold or sunny and warm: In Berlin you don't have to miss out on shopping at the weekly market in any weather. Regular weekly markets, cosy eco-market, fancy streetfood market or nostalgic market hall – the offering is huge. If you like to listen to the offers of the market criers, haggle over cheese prices, chat with the organic farmer about their tomatoes or just enjoy the market atmosphere, then you've come to the right place. In every part of town – if not in every quarter – you can do your shopping at quaint weekly markets, satisfy your hunger at snack carts and food trucks and conclude your market visit with a steaming cup of coffee. As you stroll from stand to stand, gazing over fruit and vegetables, watching Turkish mothers bake and having Italian men sell you handmade pasta, you'll soon forget you're in the middle of hectic Berlin.

We've selected seven markets all over the city where you can do your weekly shopping and taste delicious treats. You'll soon notice that the markets vary considerably from district to district. In the Dahlem domain, young organic farmers sell you their home-grown potatoes in knitted sweaters, in the Arminius market hall in Moabit you like to wait in line for your currywurst, at the weekly market on Boxhagener Platz you can enjoy the village atmosphere in the middle of the big city and in the Markthalle Neun in Kreuzberg you go on a journey back in time to the late 19th century. Whatever your preferences, you are guaranteed to find what you are looking for in our selection.

You can reach all our gourmet Tours comfortably with the S-Bahn — meaning more time in the markets and less time looking for parking. The markets are often only a few minutes away from the S-Bahn stations – so you can easily transport large purchases home. And if it gets too much, you can borrow your grandma's shopping trolley first.

In times of Corona, our tour suggestions are mainly one thing: inspirations for hikes and bike tours in the near future, when the everyday restrictions are less strict. Please stay healthy, protect yourself and other people. Avoid any unnecessary travel — if the urgent desire for fresh air lures you out on our tours, please observe the distance and hygiene rules. By the way, FFP2 masks are mandatory in the Berlin S-Bahn!
