Featured Merchants

 
Groceries
Stall 211
Du-par's Pie Shop
A tradition nearly as old as the Market itself, Du-par’s Pie Shop is legendary. They bake fresh daily and they have such exquisite skill that even the usual choices – an apple pie or a traditional lemon meringue – are decidedly more flavorful than even dedicated pie lovers expect. For those planning holiday fare, here’s an insider’s tip: – locals traditionally order so many pies for Thanksgiving and the holidays from Du-par’s that fresh stacks of pies often climb to the ceiling: ordering early is a wise choice indeed.
 
Restaurants
Stall 312
The Gumbo Pot
Simply perfect Cajun cooking has made this spot an all-time favorite for locals and visitors alike. The beignets are phenomenal (try them drizzled with chocolate!), the gumbo is fantastic, the po’boys are perfect. Be warned: when they tell you that the blackened dishes (fish, chicken, shrimp, even a meat loaf po’boy) are hot, they speak the truth. (Critic Favorite)
 
Restaurants
Stall 424
The Salad Bar

Build your own salad from a complete selection of the freshest possible ingredients. Pair your salad with soup if you wish, but whether you want soup or salad or both, do not leave the counter without a smoothie they make them right on the spot and theres none better. The shop has been owned and operated for nearly 30 years by Maria Brown who was originally an employee for 10 years before acquiring it. Her three kids are help out with day to day operations and can be seen working behind the counter with Maria.

Nonna's Empanadas
Offering one of the largest selections of baked empanadas in the city, from the traditional beef and chicken to unique fillings like macaroni & cheese and Philly cheese steak, Nonna’s offers an assortment of sweet options, including apple, Nutella and dulce de leche.
