Open on Tuesday, Saturday and Sunday, the Eastern Market is almost like a town square - one of the few places a cross section of folks from the region regularly gather. It is crosshatched by streets filled with covered sheds, and on special days, filled with street vendors beneath colorful tarps. Parking is located centrally around the main sheds, where the restrooms are located, and the ATM's. On Saturday mornings, especially during summer, the Eastern Market teems with people buying fresh apples, blueberries and roses from farmers who have driven here from across the Midwest. | Open on Tuesday, Saturday and Sunday, the Eastern Market is almost like a town square - one of the few places a cross section of folks from the region regularly gather.

Open on Tuesday, Saturday and Sunday, the Eastern Market is almost like a town square - one of the few places a cross section of folks from the region regularly gather. It is crosshatched by streets filled with covered sheds, and on special days, filled with street vendors beneath colorful tarps. Parking is located centrally around the main sheds, where the restrooms are located, and the ATM's. On Saturday mornings, especially during summer, the Eastern Market teems with people buying fresh apples, blueberries and roses from farmers who have driven here from across the Midwest.
On one side of the market, there's R. Hirt Jr. & Co., one of the best places to pick up fresh cut meat and gourmet cheese. On the other side is the Russell Street Deli, whose breakfast - omelets, pancakes, and the like - draws a long line, especially on weekends. In between are over 150 vendors housed under five sheds. In addition, there are more than 140 other businesses in the district that are open all week. Hard to find ingredients, local produce, tantalizing dining options, and core services - you name it, the Market has it.
