Mercato di Mezzo (the Middle Market) stands as one of the finest markets in the heart of Bologna. This indoor market, just a few steps away from Piazza Maggiore, has been a fixture since the 19th century.
The name also harks back to the Middle Ages food market (Quadrilatero) and the renovated food hall. The renovated food hall features different floors. On the ground floor, you can immerse yourself in the offerings of the botteghe (small stalls where you can shop or eat at the counter). Here, you can find bread, cheese platters, pasta, sweets to pair with a glass of wine, or craft beer.
