The Dapper Market is that second one. Ever since 1910, this open-air market has stretched across Dapperstraat, from Mauritskade to Wijttenbachstraat, in the middle of the Dapper neighborhood. Two hundred stalls, hundreds and sixty regulars, packed six days a week. That's no small statement.<\/h2>\n<p>What sets the market apart from many other Amsterdam markets is the offerings and who is behind the stalls. Moroccan traders with mountains of fresh fruit and vegetables, Surinamese vendors with products you won't find anywhere else as easily, Turkish stalls with spices and olives, Antillean vendors with their own specialties, and just Dutch stalls with flowers, plants and textiles. Everything mixed together, and it works. The composition changes almost daily, because the market also has entrepreneurs without fixed weekly stalls who appear on alternating days.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-83666 size-full\" title=\"dapper-market-market-amsterdam_1\" src=\"https:\/\/www.amsterdamnow.com\/app\/uploads\/dappermarkt-markt-amsterdam_1.jpeg\" alt=\"dapper-market-market-amsterdam_1\" width=\"1700\" height=\"1133\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.amsterdamnow.com\/app\/uploads\/dappermarkt-markt-amsterdam_1.jpeg 1700w, https:\/\/www.amsterdamnow.com\/app\/uploads\/dappermarkt-markt-amsterdam_1-600x400.jpeg 600w, https:\/\/www.amsterdamnow.com\/app\/uploads\/dappermarkt-markt-amsterdam_1-1024x682.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.amsterdamnow.com\/app\/uploads\/dappermarkt-markt-amsterdam_1-768x512.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.amsterdamnow.com\/app\/uploads\/dappermarkt-markt-amsterdam_1-1536x1024.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/www.amsterdamnow.com\/app\/uploads\/dappermarkt-markt-amsterdam_1-18x12.jpeg 18w, https:\/\/www.amsterdamnow.com\/app\/uploads\/dappermarkt-markt-amsterdam_1-400x267.jpeg 400w, https:\/\/www.amsterdamnow.com\/app\/uploads\/dappermarkt-markt-amsterdam_1-500x333.jpeg 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1700px) 100vw, 1700px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The market is on an ordinary residential street, surrounded by cafes and stores. No market hall, no covered construction, just outdoors. That gives the Dapper Market something raw and real. You are there among the neighbors of the neighborhood, not people making a day trip. Fresh fish changes next to piles of clothes, household goods next to flowers. It's crowded, it's loud, and that's exactly the point. Every day thousands of visitors flock to the Dapperstraat, not just from the neighborhood but from all over the Netherlands.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>The Dapper Market is known as the city's most affordable market, and it shows.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>If you compare the Dappermarkt to the Albert Cuypmarkt, you quickly notice the difference. Fewer tourists, lower prices, more of a neighborhood feel. The Dappermarkt is known as the most affordable market in the city, and it shows. It's not a place to pose for a photo, it's a place to buy what you need. Monday through Saturday, nine to five, year-round. It's that simple.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There are markets you visit for the atmosphere, and markets you just go to because you need something.
