Review & FAQ:

Located approximately one mile north of downtown Detroit, Eastern Market is a historic market area that is doubly fascinating: it is a Michigan State Historic Site and it is also listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Originally opened as a farmer’s market in 1841, it has expanded over the years, and additional sales sheds were added. Today, it covers 4.5 acres and is the largest historic public market in the United States.

The market has many tempting items for sale like fresh fruits and vegetables, excellent cuts of meat, and flavorful spices. Eastern Market also displays the works of local artists and allows musicians to perform, an added bonus to the homegrown food.
