Pike Place Market
One of the oldest continuously-operated farmer’s markets in the U.S., Pike Place presides over a nine acre historic district in the heart of downtown Seattle. The market features fresh fish and produce stands, arts and crafts, ethnic groceries and gift stores, vintage clothing, antiques and collectibles, international restaurants, cafes and food bars. Street musicians, sanctioned by the Pike Place Market Preservation Development Authority (PDA), entertain at designated locales throughout the market. The Pike Place Market is located between First & Western Avenues bound by Union & Stewart Streets.
A visitor information booth at First & Pike Street offers free market maps. Visitors may also call the PDA for market information at (206) 682-7453. Additionally, market tours are offered by the Pike Place Foundation Wednesday through Sunday at 11 a.m. and 2 p.m. The foundation can also provide information and reservations for many other seasonal market tours and popular chef tours.
The Pike Place Market is officially open daily, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Saturday, and 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Sunday. However, during the summer farming season, many produce and fish markets open around 8 a.m. or earlier.
