Modiano Market in Polygyros

Many god places to eat. Try Vomvidia.

Nice place for visit at any time during the day!

I really like this place. Worth visiting

Great place to visit

Great for all your shopping needs

Seafood, all kinds of meat, olives, spices… you can find it all and more at this beautiful market. Everything looks fresh and tasty especially the fruits, just as they were brought here straight from the orchard. The prices seem a little bit higher than on the other markets in the city but location and the size of the Modiano pay it off.

Fantastic buzzing market in the centre of Thessaloniki. Some interesting eateries nearby

A must see in the heart of Thessaloniki.Old former Modiano market covered mall place that was slowly going into ruins is fortunately currently under repair.

Very lively and colorful place. Typically Greek. It is located near the White Tower and the promenade. You must visit it.

The market is closed on reconstruction.

Nice food. Authentic Greek fast food.

traditional open air market, average quality and bad smell a sacrifice for low prices in commodities!

If you want taste local and typical environment that Is the night Place.

The original building is currently closed due construction work and the whole market got transferred into the upper block.Less beautiful than the original but still worth visiting.

Traditional and local market with a variety of fish, meat and olive shops.Typical vibe

Very interesting place. A lot of olives and olive oil, fish, meat,...

Its under renovation at the moment but the few establishments left sell great, fresh produce!

Fresh food at every corner!Worth a walk through.Parts are currently being refurbished.

Let your senses be conquered by the scents of the flowers, fresh fruit and vegetables. Authentic atmosphere and a way to genuinely discover what Greece is like. Be sure not to miss it!

There was lots and lots of fresh fish and olives and meat and a bit of everything actually.Its not like a fancy market to sit down and eat lunch , its an actual market to buy food and everybody shouts in greek something trying to sell you their stuff. 😳 not really relaxing but Ive seen fish never seen before so worth a visit for me

Fresh goods fron Greece, definitely worth to check out

Very small market but nice place to visit

Bear in mind the historic building containing the main market is currently closed for refurbishment (as at October 2020although the markets sprawl across a wider area and there’s still plenty to explore and enjoy.The neighbouring building contains some restaurants, the best of which may be a place serving excellent ‘mageirefta’-type food (home cooking not made to orderfor bargain prices. It’s called To Paradosiako, which means ‘traditional’ and is a very common name for food establishments in Greece, so don’t bother Googling it as this place has limited online presence and instead you’ll find a load of other places elsewhere with the same name. Once you’ve found it, you’ll be invited into the kitchen and shown a multitude of pans containing food that’s been prepared earlier - just point at what you want. We struck gold with the vegetable and bean dishes in particular.

Must see in Thessaloniki. Good choice of local products and nice atmosphere. Fair prices.

Fresh fruit and fish market. Many clothes vendors. House hold vendors. Shoes. Very busy place.

Must visit place, to get local vibe

Thessalonikis traditional and oldest market. Similar to a souq or pazari, many shops span decades and sell traditional and deli products.

Turn into Modiano and youre walking into the past, thousands of years of Macedonian Greek and Roman times and tradition fused into one single traders agora/forum. Things have been done the same way in this place generation after generation for thousands of years. And the products are local, guaranteed, fresh with an amazing range. If youre from northern Europe, you might not find the market always pleasing to the eye or the nose. However, be sure that it will be an experience to remember.

I love it here. Great finds, walk around and get lost for a while. Great little taverna in the corner that often has live music.

Great market right in the centre were you can watch the locals go about their daily life and were you can buy a great souvenir to take home with you.

Great selection of fish and meat products. Veggies available but somehow selection was not so good. Note to visit it in the morning to get best and freshest!

Organic and fresh fruit and vegetables, traditional her.b and spices market from the Greek nature.

A true Turkish bazaar in middle of Thessaloniki. A really beautiful and cultural experience. You can find there everything from clothes, exposed fish of all types, spices, to souvenirs, and many many other things. People are yelling trying to sell their products, bargains everywhere truing to low the price,.... Really amazing and unique experience.

Traditional market, not much stores left but you can enjoy a good meal in one of the taverns housed in it.

Good prices.Bought the most amazing 100% real leather sandals.They costed only 15 euro.Bought lots of vegetables also.Great place

Great service and great prices. They did my friends fish with flour when she was gluten free and they promptly remade it without flour and gave us free dessert. Very responsible.

Do not confuse the Modiano Market with the Kapani Market close by, as almost all reviewers do.The Modiano Market is totally closed since month.Nobody knows, what will be. The shops, cafes and stands are all closed. This attraction can be deleted from the list.What a pity.

I have so many memories of this place. The fresh produce section; the fish section was amazing, with vendors with strong voices: fish from Epanomi, fish from Mihaniona.. What an amazing chorus... The meat section with hanging fleshes, not politically correct these days but from animals raised in farms without hormones etc.It was closed due to renovations.but when it reopens it will will be an amazing attraction to both locals and tourists. A monument to the Jewishness of the city and to the prosperous old Jewish family of Modiano.

Great market to buy a lot of food back home. Be careful of pickpockets so don’t keep anything of value in your pockets. The market offers a lot of fresh fishes, all kind of olives, Greek/Turkish delights and sweets, and also clothes.

Modiano Market is an enclosed market in Thessaloniki, Greece. It was built between 1922 and 1930, in the center of the city and forms the central point of the citys market which encompasses over several blocks. It took its name from the architect Eli Modiano, a member of the well known Italian-Jewish Modiano family of the city.Inside the market there are fish markets, butcher shops and tavernas. It is a place of social meeting and historical significance for the city.

I love walking through this market, just for the atmosphere.This market is tucked away in the heart of Thessaloniki City with entrances from a number of streets including the Aristotelus Promenade.Pram and wheelchair friendly, alleys are quite narrow and cobbly, but flat.You can find everything at these markets, Foods, Restaurants, clothing, gifts, shoes, bags, gifts, Holy Icons, Greek Coffee Bars, Delicatessans.There are no ATMs at the markets themselves, however there are ATMs on the Aristotelus Promenade.Be careful of the hawkers at some of the entrances and do not get distracted by them please guys.It is open every day of the week except Sunday.Good idea for tourists to use a belt wallet under your shirt or a lockable backpack.Dont haggle too much please travellers. The prices are ridiculously cheap already.The fresh fruit, and supply of freshly roasted nuts is exquisite at this market.It would be really sad if you came to Thessalonki and missed a walk through this bustling little market.Have a great holiday guys.Chrisse F, November 2018

Interesting to see all the food available and what prices were offered. It smells a little and some of the meat looks abit suspect. To be honest, i wouldnt buy from here

Street market where you can find lot of stuff. Good fish market, carpenters made chairs, souveniers, cloth and so on.Prices are low and reasonable. Even you can trade a bit. People are friendly and wellcome you.Market spreads on several streets and devide by thematic zones. So if you cannot find something ask, most of people knows english and are helpfull.

We had the best souvlaki that we had in our lives, and we bought a lot of Greek spices, soups, and other products. Definitely a must visit in Thessaloníki.

A must for the tourists, you should eat there and buy some fish or grocery, but be careful of the bulgaro-turkish gipsies, and guard your belongings

Good place to buy traditional local greec products, foods and ingerdients.

Modiano is a great typical place to see in Thessaloniki. Food price and variety is very good.

Historical place in the heart of Thessaloniki, worth visiting both for locals and tourists

One of Thessalonikis landmarks, a dive into the past. Old, a little dirty, badly maintained, but so beautiful, so colorful, so alive.

The market was rather deserted, as far as the "true market" area is concerned... For some market action it is better to cross the street...Still, there are some rather busy restaurants inside the covered market area...
