About Italian Market

The South 9th Street Italian Market is an outdoor curb market in South Philadelphia, rooted in the Italian community that settled the area from the 1880s. You walk awning-covered sidewalks lined with produce carts, butchers, bakeries, seafood counters and cheese shops such as Di Bruno Bros. Mexican, Vietnamese, Korean and Chinese businesses now sit alongside the Italian ones. The street appeared in the Rocky films, and a visitor center sells market souvenirs and books.
