Admission is free and everyone is welcome. They even have food trucks, drink stands and today they had entertainment. Some stands are a second store front for a bigger businesses and some are folks that run a smaller business in markets like this. It's all good. There's quite the variety. We had fantastic weather on our only chance to experience this treasure. As you might expect, we drank too much, ate too much and spent far too much on the local crafts. You only live once. Parking sucked. We had to walk a couple blocks. It was a decent area making for a nice stroll. Everyone involved showed us so much heartfelt hospitality and good will. We talked to so many locals and learned so much about the area and the town's history, it was a total shock that we'd spent 4 hours here. 10/24

Great people (and dog) watching. Really nice variety of local vendors and a few food truck options…read more The Jennings Java coffee booth was a welcome sight. This market gets very busy quickly and the space it takes place in is pretty small. Parking is tight in this area, so you may have to walk a bit. Market runs until early December to coincide with GV Village Lights.

The owner came out and introduced himself and he was also sooo nice. Everything is homemade and the shop is just too cute. I normally don't like caramel, but it's absolutely delicious and the lemon dark chocolate is to die for!! If you are in the German village of Columbus you gotta go to this place.

All People's Fresh Market is amazing. It truly lives up to its name, it is for ALL people. They…read moredo not turn anyone away. The first time you go you have to provide your drivers license. They basically set you up in their system, takes less than 5 minutes. They ask absolutely no questions and after checking you in the first time they provide you with a key tag that you simply show each time you go in the future. They have both a drive thru, and a walk up option to pick up fresh food. If you choose to do the walk up, they do have parking spots available. Everyone that is working / volunteering is kind and judgement free. What I have found is that many that are in need of food in Columbus do not have the proper transportation. I have stopped by All People's Fresh Market and picked up a box of food to drop off to those in need. The joy those families have when I arrive with a big box of food is totally worth it. If you are in need of fresh food, or you know someone that is, please pass this info on. All People's Fresh Market is a savior.

I believe each location is separately owned, so it's not a chain, it's a local small business you are supporting by shopping there.

There was a dj playing some music, and a nice variety of stands, including several for produce, a bakery, dog products, flowers, honey, and more! It's not huge, and we easily walked back and forth through the market quickly. We ended up with some delicious sweet peaches (they had both yellow and white on offer), a really nice loaf of cinnamon chip bread, and a gorgeous bouquet of flowers. Good stop if you're in the area on a Tuesday or Friday!

I ordered the Lamb Kebab, Beef Kebab, and the Ghormeh Sabzi, and WOW... everything was fresh, flavorful, and tasted homemade. The kind of meal that has you planning your next visit before you even leave. And if you're a ginger ale fan... do yourself a favor and try their Ginger Beer by Warped Wing Soda Co.. SO good.

This is the third location that I know of, but the quality is always the same. This is the place in Columbus to come for fresh roasted peanuts, and all kinds of specialty candies. Salty or sweet they're sure to have something for most folks to snack on. Look for that great Mr. Peanut sign near Broad and High St. It's definitely worth a visit.

It's a good sized building, with a decent parking lot. Inside there's a little bit of produce, a good selection of dry goods, and some snacks and drinks. Prices are a bit high. They are obviously still putting things in place; they are using about 2/3 of the area, and will be setting up more displays. Service was good. I got a couple of snacks. I'll be back in a month or two when they have things fully set up.

Amazing prices and selections. I will definitely be supporting this market from here on out.read more
