    Honestly it’s quite underwhelming. Been to markets or farmer’s markets in Australia or other parts of Europe and that had more variety. This one was kinda overhyped. Still a cool spot anyway if you don’t have plans on a Sunday I reckon. I didn’t buy anything eventually.

    This is a very cool place with a hipster-ish vibe. On Sundays there is a very nice yard sale, where you can find hand made clothing, accessories but also amazing Portuguese specialties to eat or drink. It's worth taking a walk on this super nice street with beautiful cafes and restaurants.

    Interesting market with the emphasis on trendy! Not a flea market at all. Lots of crafts, handmade items, trinkets and clothes. A few second hand clothing stalls. But definitely not flea. More second hand. Lots of places to eat and drink. A good place for a wander around. But a bit disappointed by the google description, as it wasn’t what we expected.

    LX Market > Time Out Market Better Food Options. Sundays do have an outdoor market but restaurants, stores and bars are open 7 days a week

    Beautiful collection of hand crafted arts, all made locally by the artisans on site. There were no antiques although they had been advertised. There's also an abundance of good looking food to try. Prices were good and there was a very wide array of good available. With an emphasis on jewelry. Great place to buy reasonable souvenirs.

    Real cool place to visit on a Sunday or Saturday

  • 1/5 João C. 6 months ago on Google
    I visited LXMarket last Sunday, and my experience left much to be desired. Upon entering, I was immediately greeted by the faint smell of stale urine, which I assumed was a lingering reminder of the previous evening's binge drinking by LXFactory patrons. The market appeared to be filled with overpriced items that catered to a specific hipster aesthetic. It seemed as though people were pretending to be poor while overindulging in trendy consumerism. Most of the market stalls offered nearly identical merchandise, characterized by items associated with attention-seeking individuals who want to signal their pretentious personalities by appearing "modern," "unpretentious," and "cool." It appeared as though many of these products were designed to fit a particular photocopied lookalike style. The entire experience struck me as superficial and contrived. It felt like the market was more about creating a facade or image than offering anything of real value. I couldn't help but notice the irony of people pretending to be poor while purchasing overpriced items. It seemed as though they were trying to adopt a certain aesthetic without truly understanding or embracing the values that should accompany it. I also couldn't fathom how anyone could justify buying poor-quality, overpriced food in an environment with the persistent background aroma of stale urine. Overall, my visit to LXMarket was disappointing. It appeared to be a place where people go to put on a show rather than experience anything genuine or authentic. It's a location where individuals can purchase the illusion of being cool, modern, and unpretentious, but ultimately fall short of achieving those ideals. Additionally, it's worth noting that LXMarket is a reflection of a larger trend towards gentrification and the displacement of working-class communities. The LXFactory area, where the market is located, was once a thriving industrial hub but has transformed into a trendy neighborhood with high rents and expensive boutiques in recent years. This transformation has resulted in the displacement of many working-class residents who used to live and work in the area. LXMarket, in many ways, symbolizes the negative aspects of what Lisbon has become. It's a place where people can consume the illusion of authenticity while the real authenticity of the neighborhood is being erased.

    Look for unique, handmade, vintage or second hand products on LxMarket on Sundays.

    Nice variety of shops, trendy and fashinable... Food is good, but a bit expensive... Parking is easier in the streets around the area

    Cool place with lots of restaurants and shops. Trendy, kind of hipstery place. Definitely one of the most interesting places I went to in Lisbon. I would go back there for sure if I'm ever there again. There's so many spots there that one visit is probably not enough time to appreciate it all.

    You can see most of Lisbon's culture in one place. Old factory buildings with cafés, restaurants, offices decorated with graffiti..

    The market was okay. Some cute and artsy stores and nice looking snack stands. There is a wide selection of restaurants on the grounds as well. Honestly could have skipped this one but if you’re looking for something to do on a Sunday this might as well be it :)

    Cool shops and cafes! I found some unique items to buy. Had a nice lil snack at one of the cafes. If you like something different, something unique and one of a kind…this your place!

  • 5/5 Paul R. 6 months ago on Google
    A fun market with great selection of food, arts & crafts. If you’re short of time then LX is way better than the more famous Time Out Market

    Nice place to go.

  • 4/5 HC 1 year ago on Google
    Very touristy and a bit too packed always although there are cool stores and good restaurants. Good to visit and check it out.

  • 5/5 Matilda R. 1 year ago on Google
    This is such a cool arty place to stroll around - lots of interesting independent shop, eateries and galleries. Really enjoyed it, and went alone.

  • 5/5 Brett T. 1 year ago on Google

  • 5/5 Karl W. 1 year ago on Google
    So many cool stores, restaurants and bars to check out

  • 5/5 Vanesa M. 1 year ago on Google
    Love this place for a coffee, gifts shops, lunch, alternative pause far from the tourists places and that today is a lux in Lisbon. My favorite place here is the Library Ler Devagar 💛💛

    Various types of cousins, you can also find the traditional cousins.

  • 5/5 Jacqui L. 1 year ago on Google
    A vibrant Sunday market selling unusual and hip stuff from multiple stores around the site. There’s a vintage clothing shop in one of the big warehouses and lots of handmade goods being sold from stalls and stores. There’s also an astonishing bookshop with bookcases so tall that it must be impossible to reach the top. In among the shops are lots of delicious-smelling food stalls and restaurants. We took a packed lunch and it was an error. Having to sit on a curb and eat sandwiches while surrounded by mouth-watering food aromas was soul-destroying.

    It’s all good, but why the heck do they let cars in?? Honestly, just keep them out

  • 5/5 Sharon B. 1 year ago on Google
    So fun and lovely, you can ALAND hours of exploring and finding new places every moment.

  • 4/5 Hemad N. 2 years ago on Google
    Excellent place to visit as a tourist although most of the shops are more expensive than the similar places in the city.

  • 4/5 Roland S. 3 years ago on Google
    Nice walk through an old warehouse/factory complex that includes artsy shops, a few galleries, eateries and--the best feature--public art in the form of murals, sculptures, graffiti, mixed media and posters. A chance to buy from the up-and-coming artisans and craftsmen before they get discovered by museums and high-end retailers...

    Lovely Sunday market. Difficult footing. Had a great experience of juices and food at Fred’s.

  • 5/5 Karina S. 2 years ago on Google
    So cool, loved it and I highly recommend after checking out the shopping opportunities to go and eat at „therapist“ ;)
