Granville Island Public Market

Fodor's Review:

Because no chain stores are allowed in this 50,000-square-foot building, each shop here is unique. Dozens of stalls sell locally grown produce direct from the farm; others sell crafts, chocolates, cheese, fish, meat, flowers, and exotic foods. On Thursday in summer, market gardeners sell fruit and vegetables from trucks outside. At the north end of the market you can pick up a snack, lunch, or coffee at one of the many food stalls. The Market Courtyard, on the waterside, is a good place to catch street entertainers. Weekends can get madly busy.

  • Open: Daily 9-7
