  • Like a mini Reading Terminal market, still plenty large. And the eggs were fresher and cheaper than the supermarket!

  • I found a great sandwich here and 2 donuts. The place is a little packed on a Saturday but you can always stay outside. There are tons of bench and tables. Walking around you will run into cheese shop, butcher and fresh veggie. Everyone is friendly and filled with life. Great place to get a quick bite.
  • No place to sit and eat but oh so worth it!!!! We had to stand to enjoy our absolutely amazing food from Soulcialize Catering - So sorry I ate it too fast to take pictures, fried Whiting, Gumbo over rice, Collard greens and Macaroni & Cheese all to die for!!! Then we bought up a bunch of Salsa & Guacamole at the Guacamole Specialists, then stopped at Christina's Criollo and got a platter to go of the absolutely BEST Latin inspired baked chicken with Yucca, rice and beans and plantains...I can't wait to visit again to try some of the other amazing foods!
  • This is definitely a fun experience to just browse all the shops and see what they offer. There were many things to see. Lots of produce stands, bakeries, ready made food, flowers, meats. And so much more. It can definitely get crowded on weekends and parking (paid) can be a challenge to find. The shops were very organized and the place was clean too. I did find that some produce were on the expensive side ie bananas with Dole stickers selling for 79 cents/lb vs the supermarket where you can buy the exact same bananas for 49 cents a pound or less. Be a smart shopper if price sensitive. Otherwise knock yourself out and support local. Overall, I had a good time just strolling around and eating my way through this central market.
  • Very nice amish market. Definitely a must do for tourists. You can buy all kinds of products from beauty to food, anything you can think of. We got some fresh homemade salsas and homemade sauces and pickles. They are so many stalls to checkout, you would need a couple hours to get through all of them.
  • Glad we made it! We went there approximately at the time they were going to close. So I got two delicious muffin in one price. It was a wonderful experience to see the combination of so many cultures at one place and I would love to buy more interesting stuff from the market in my next visit.🥰
