The Downsview Market is a really fun place to visit on the weekends with some of everything! I've visited this place a couple times, sometimes alone and sometimes with friends, and find some cool stuff every time!There's a huge variety of stores selling things ranging from antique furniture and artworks to cell phone accessories and multicultural foods! The vendors and sellers here are really nice and friendly, and I definitely recommend this market to anyone who has a spare couple hours on the weekend!
A nice flea market worth visiting many times. JUST AVOID the shockingly rude, impatient and dishonest perfume woman past the fruit and vegetable entrance (NW corner stall).Definitely at least buy your fruits and vegetables here on the weekend. Supermarkets will never beat their deals. Market is big, organized and spacious, has enough variety, has an international food court (plus a Peruvian food stall by itself, outside the food court), a surprise bike store in the back area (run by a humble and helpful young family man, I've bought my son's bike from him, why buy new), and arts and collectibles. Perhaps on a nice day, also head south to Downsview park for a relaxing nature stroll.But never use their cash machine, unless you want to throw away $4.25 in fees. Considering that plus a few dollars more will get you a delicious grilled lamb wrap from the vendor by the north entrance."Support The Small Business"

I have been coming here since AZ Toronto Jewellery got a booth, and the booth has a great selection of gold, diamond and silver. I know I can always find something I like when I go there.
The best flea market I have been to. I’m a bargain shopper who looks for great quality and pricing. They have everything there. Bought a few summer tops to wear, as well as some diffusers and incense. Food court is fantastic and the farmers market is unbeatable.
Flea market is the best place to buy your everyday needs.As a customer the flea market is a great place to shop, for used up garbage that are overly expensive, and the salesperson will gladly scam you of your money.There are a lot of stores with fake designer clothes, as well as fake watches, that have very questionable prices. There are also jewelry shops which I haven't been to so I can't speak on jewelry they sell are real.There are also many game stores but in my opinion they rip you off for most of the games (for PS3, Xbox, PS4, Xbox one). Other games like Gamecube games are very expensive but it seems okay (I guess) considering the rarity of the gaming console let alone the games itself. The deals given for the games are rarely good, most often than not the deals are bad, and the salesperson won't bargain any further!There was one computer store I went to and the person running the place is bad. He sells used laptops and charges you as if the laptop was brand new. This salesperson showed me a relatively new laptop with ok specs, the next day he brings a different laptop and charged me $400, this laptop had the most outdated hardware and had pirated microsoft office. Using this laptop was hell itself, wouldn't start up properly, unsurprisingly crash for no reason and the internet wouldn't work 99% of the time. The laptop keyboard had stains on it (very nasty) and the side of the laptop were chipped off I found this out after buying the product. What sucked was I need a laptop ASAP for university and most sales ended from other stores. I confronted to him about these issues he played it off by saying "but the laptop works" very dishonest person.I'd recommend staying away from the food court. Unless you have a strong stomach or don't mind getting stomach flu. Eating the food will most likely send you an immediate one way trip to the bathroom.The flea market atmosphere was not an enjoyable one. It's very hot during summer, there's no air condition in the place, the place is very dirty and try to stay away from the washrooms as much as you can. There's so many booths that play loud music (all of them suck) I could barely hear myself speak.TLDR: This place sucks you are better off going somewhere else where they don't sell used up stuff for a very huge price.This is just my opinion and I am speaking from what I've experienced. It's up to you to take this review seriously.
It’s a fun place to go on the weekends for some produce. Visited here more than a couple times and the service is always friendly. Became friends with some of the vendors there, one of them actually owns the farms that grow the food! The produce quality at the booths are mostly always fresh, but they can have their bad days. The deals can be great, but on few occasions not so much. Probably depends on the season. Would definitely continue to visit since a lot of the fruits and veggies seem fresher and better quality than in grocery stores.
Great flea market with lots of fresh and well priced produce. There’s a vintage section in the back. Lots of beauty products. There’s something for everyone to like here. The prices are decent and the vendors are very nice.
Always like waking around here.See what you what, go back just before close (make sure money is in different pockets) lowball the person " sorry that's all I have " they don't want to pack it up. You may save some bucks.The money you say is you're own.Pretty good food also.
Great place, tons of shops and prices are good. Came at 10am when they opened and was already full. It gets busy fast. That was the only problem, will go back for sure after covid to look around more. You can spend hours here.
