North Market Downtown

12/2/23 update: I saw some newer restaurants here. They’re doing construction so it can be a little difficult going to the back entrance from the convention center. You’ll have to go in from the front.

I love this place. A multitude of different ethnic food and snacks. There is literally something for everyone here no matter how picky you are. Prices won’t break the bank. You get a generous amount of food. I like to grab different kinds of food to try out.

The market is made up with a dozen or so unique stores

It is definitely worthy a stroll through the market. From a cup of Joe in the morning to a spicy bite of Nepali food, this is a cutesy place to spend time.
The pretzel shop is my fav! No need to commit to the full pretzels, those little sticks allow anyone a taste of variety without the quantity. And they are tasty, soft with just a touch of chewy texture.

Happy eating

So much fun! A diversity of food vendors and little shops selling cards and flowers. Definitely stop by if you’re in the area. I went in the morning so most booths were still closed but I’m sure it gets lively in the afternoons! Lots of cuisines inside to try including Moroccan, Italian, etc. I included a photo of the stall map so you can get a sense of what’s currently there, enjoy!

Great atmosphere and variety. Something for everyone. There is dining upstairs, and you must try Jeni's ice cream!

An incredible amount of little restaurant spots that you can get just about anything that you want from fesh fish and oysters to donuts and ice cream. If you were in the downtown area, this is a must-see place.

Don’t skip the polish stand!!! For sure the best potato pancake in Ohio. We hard a very hard time deciding which place to have lunch at as we were only in town for a day. We went with Tajine House (Moroccan cuisine) for our main entree and got some potato pancakes and pierogies from the Polish spot. Everything was very fresh and well presented. The atmosphere was extremely inviting and great for people watching as you can eat upstairs and look down on the indoor market. Plenty of fun local shopping as well in the market for those looking for a unique souvenir. Enjoy :)

North Market in Columbus is a food lover's paradise, much like Quincy Market in Boston. It's a bustling warehouse of food venues offering everything you could possibly want, from pasta to Polish, Asian to artisanal cheeses, cupcakes to barbecue.

I recently visited North Market and was blown away by the incredible variety of options. I indulged in the barbecue beef brisket, which was tender, juicy, and packed with flavor. The housemade coleslaw was the perfect side dish to complement the smoky meat. My friend opted for some delicious Polish pierogies, which were a comforting and flavorful choice.

To top off our amazing meal, we couldn't resist stopping by Jenny's ice cream for a sweet treat on our way out. The ice cream was creamy and decadent, the perfect ending to our food-filled adventure at North Market.

Every bite we had at North Market was out of this world. The flavors, the textures, the aromas - everything was a true culinary delight. If you find yourself in Columbus, do not miss the opportunity to experience the foodie heaven that is North Market. You won't be disappointed!

What a unique place. There are so many great options to choose from. All ethnicities and varieties. All the different food places were full of such great choices. There are so many things to look at and enjoy. Food and beverage. Desserts. Many different varieties of items for sale.
You must stop here and try it out. You won't be disappointed.
Also big plus in my book it's wheelchair ♿ accessible

Really fun atmosphere with many unique food offerings. There is a hot chicken place upstairs which was delicious.

I love this place! There are so many great food options, plus some extra shopping options while you are there. If you have company in town, I would suggest taking them to the North Market.

They have their parking lot renovation! Good food stalls around as always.. always our favorite go to place for food cravings!

This was my first time here and it's a smorgasbord of food and interesting items they have some of everything here it is well worth the trip you can go hungry and leave happy every vendor I met was super nice and friendly this is now my go to spot when I just don't know what I want to eat I can go here and no matter what I get it will be delicious and homemade

Phenominal place. This was the primary reason I took a short trip to the area with my wife. We were both amazed. I didn't see the hot chicken place(EDIT: after looking at site again, apparently it was upstairs, which we didn't make it to), but it was kind of a blessing cause it was one of the many things I wanted to try and after getting a little bit at a lot of the places we were both stuffed and had plenty left over. The cheesemongers at the cheese shop were very helpful and helped me select some nice ones for a homemade lasagna. I'm not sure if possible, but if not the pasta cooking place next to the pasta making place cannot cook what someone orders from the maker right there, definitely a missed opportunity. Olive and vinegar bar was great, picked up several. Out of the food places my favorite was the lamb shank(I think it was a moroccan place, but on the 2022 map it's where that burger joint is marked) and wife's favorite was her gyro(she thinks it was lamb and chicken). And I like a lot of spice/heat, so when I found my breakfast bagel sandwich lacking I was able to just pick up a bottle of black rabbit hot sauce, which is sooooo good. I hope to get a chance to go back and if we're ever driving through downtown Columbus, I will.

I went here with some family, and we loved it! It was pretty busy but you could still get around. We got Indian, Polish, Moroccan, and Mexican. All of it was divine! We also grabbed pretzels and ice cream all to die for! Would highly suggest.

We had SO much yummy food here! We kept going back daily and trying different things. I forgot to take pics of everything we ate. The Greek place was my absolute FAVORITE.

Great place with lots of delicious food options. There is plenty of seating available on the second floor. You can find almost anything you want to eat here.

There’s also a flower shop, deli, meat/fish market, cheese market, oils & vinaigrettes, lots more.

I would definitely check this place out if you’re nearby!

Well done. Very similar to Reading Terminal Market in Philadelphia but waaay better!! Not nearly as crowded, dirty, or smelly and much more friendly. Tons of seating upstairs and plenty of great choices downstairs. In a nice part of the city with a few outdoor tables as well.

Wow! What a fantastic assortment of food vendors. Tibet's, Korean, Vietnamese. Seafood, BBQ & brisket. Sweets, treats. Classic mid-Ohio friendliness. Some vendors will validate your parking ticket with your purchase (I was on foot. Unsure on parking.). Very close (4 min walk, if that) from the convention center (for your convention lunch break!)

I love North Market! It's such a fun immersive experience from beginning to end. There are tons of vendors downstairs with food options from door to door and once you make your way upstairs you get to take a seat and eat with a view of the market below you. A very cute date spot with a little bit of something for everyone!

Cute place with a wide range of food options, snacks, and groceries.
