The best shop on the LES!
Dizzying assortment of shops, groceries and eateries. Multi level as you would expect in New York. Almost everything you may want...
Pros: Star Seafood & Luis Brothers meats, Nordic Preserves Fish & Wildlife Co., Don Ceviche, Zerza Moroccan Kitchen, Vinyl Addiction Records, & The Lower East Side Girls Club stall.
Cons: Soulless upstairs dining area. And what's going to become of the closed-off giant lower level that used to be the Market Line? There were some terrific restaurant outposts in there, but again, the atmosphere was dismal & no one wanted to sit down there to eat.

Essex Market is a renovated historic market that houses a variety of shops and delicatessens. The market offers a large selection of fresh vegetables, meat, pastries, and other foods in a neat and clean environment. There are several small "stalls" where customers can purchase ready-made food, as well as a few bars. The market is an amazing public space filled with grocery vendors and quick-eats places, offering a wide range of options from pizza to burgers and unique dishes.
Visitors enjoy the vibrant mosaic of flavors and cultures at Essex Market. From Café D’Avignon’s buttery pastries to unforgettable dishes at Dhamaka, every vendor brings something special. The market has a family-run fishmonger and a butcher shop run by a husband-and-wife team, known for their unmatched selection. Customers appreciate the great customer service and the joy of exploring the market.
While some long for the old Essex Street Market, the new market is beautiful, and many legacy vendors continue to keep the spirit alive. The ample seating space and good ambiance make it a convenient and enjoyable destination for those living in the nearby area. The Market Line food court downstairs, currently closed, is hoped to reopen soon, adding more community and discovery to this lively place.
