About Flea Markets in Union City
Union City, New Jersey has a small but distinct flea market scene, with 2 known markets that reflect the city’s tight-knit, largely Latino community. The options range from an indoor community market with extended weekend hours to a casual outdoor Sunday-only setup — so whether you’re looking for a leisurely browse or an early-morning hunt, there’s at least one option worth knowing about.
The standout by far is Mercado De Las Americas, which has drawn over 130 reviews and a reputation for quality Hispanic products, friendly vendors, and a genuine neighborhood feel. Reviewers specifically mention stalls like local 23, where you can find appliances, clothing, shoes, curtains, and home goods — many items priced around $10. It’s an indoor market open Thursday through Sunday, with Saturday and Sunday hours starting at 10:30AM. The other option, St. Anthony of Padua Flea Market, is a smaller outdoor market running Sunday mornings from 7AM to 3PM — cash only and family-friendly, making it a decent early stop if you’re already up and around Union City on a weekend.
A few practical notes: Mercado De Las Americas is closed Monday through Wednesday, so don’t make a special trip mid-week. St. Anthony’s wraps up by 3PM on Sundays, so arrive early. Cash is confirmed at St. Anthony’s, and it’s worth having some on hand at Mercado as well. With only two markets in Union City, it’s easy enough to hit both in a single Sunday.
