Delfinului Market is big, chaotic, and straight to the point – exactly what you’d expect from a dense neighborhood like Pantelimon. It makes no attempt to be pretty – everything here is about volume, speed, and low prices. The indoor hall is packed with produce, dairy, and meat, while outside you’ll find everything from fresh fish to second-hand clothes. The vibe is intense: loud vendors, rushed buyers, clashing smells, and prices shouted across aisles. It’s a market for practical people who are used to crowds and last-minute haggling.

 Delfinului Market underwent a major modernization process starting in 2021. The works included interior reconfiguration, expansion of the existing structure, facade remodeling, and reinforcement of the metal framework, all while maintaining the building’s original height. 

Access: At the intersection of Șoseaua Pantelimon and Bd. Chișinău, near the end of tram line 14. Easily reachable by trams and buses crossing the city’s east side.
