Why you should go…

Housed in a market building dating to 1803, with the current south market hall built in the 1840s and 1850s, St. Lawrence Market has been named one of the world's best food markets by National Geographic. Vendors sell everything from fresh produce to the famous peameal bacon sandwich at Carousel Bakery. The Saturday farmers' market and Sunday antique market add to the draw.
