The Éclusiers Market is anchored in the Old Port of Montreal. The Summer market will be open every day thanks to the restaurant partners, who have been carefully selected for their delicious local products and their ecological commitment.

The Éclusiers Market will host every Thursday from 2 pm to 7 pm and every Saturday from 9 am to 2 pm, no fewer than eight kiosks of local producers who will offer their products in season.

Think of vegetables, fruits, meats, cheeses, natural soaps, breads, they will all be there and even more. This is a must for local residents who have a small food supply in the neighborhood. And they are prestigious partners like the Ferme des Quatres-Temps (Ze best), les Jardins Carya, La Petite Boulangerie, la ferme Lauzon, au Grès des Champs, Tout Cru!, Oh So Vegan!, Ferme Home Field for example.

Interestingly, in addition to the market, several restaurateurs have grafted onto the project, and always in an environmentally friendly way, they will use only biodegradable or recyclable dishes. There will be enough to please everyone since you will have the choice of 5 separate menus. The latter will be available to take away or to be tasted on one of their superb terraces.

The cuisine of the Marché des Éclusiers proposes a menu that represents products, traditions and flavors of Quebec. Roasted chicken on the spit and selected side dishes, in collaboration with the Paradis BBQ restaurant (so good), as well as a menu featuring local products in season. The menu of the market will also offer a list of wines and cocktails concocted with products Quebecers and Canadians.
