<p>There are some block explorers that will provide very limited access to their mempool, e.g. <a href="https://github.com/Blockstream/esplora/blob/master/API.md#mempool" rel="nofollow noreferrer">blockstream.info</a>, or <a href="https://mempool.space/docs/api/rest#get-mempool" rel="nofollow noreferrer">mempool.space</a>. I am not aware of any service that provides full access to their mempool via an API for free. The easiest and cheapest way might be to run your own node.</p>

<p>Hi Developer advocate from Chainstack here.</p>
<p>Chainstack offers access to Bitcoin with 3 million free requests per month for developers. You can give it a try. The API you will be using probably includes &quot;getmempoolinfo,&quot; &quot;getrawmempool,&quot; and &quot;getmempoolentry.&quot;</p>
<p>I strongly recommend using an RPC service instead of running your own node. Since no single node has all pending transactions in the blockchain, there's no significant benefit to running a node by yourself. This is simply how the blockchain operates. If you can use an RPC provider to do the job for free, there's really no point in setting up a server.</p>
<p>Hope it helps, happy coding.</p>

<p>I'm interested in finding a reliable and free source that provides an RPC interface or an accessible API to retrieve information from the Bitcoin mempool. Any suggestions or recommendations would be greatly appreciated.</p>

There is no "the" mempool. Every node has its own, and there is no guarantee that they're consistent with one another. So the obvious answer would be: run your own node.
