Staff is courteous and hospitable. You can order at the register or they check-in on you. The only minus was that the mini croquettes advertised a variety of cheese, chicken, ham&cheese, ground beef but we only got cheese and ham&cheese. Everything is made to order so it's super fresh and the portions are massive! We didn't have enough room for the desserts but they look toothsome!

Dear reader,…read more Charleston City Market is exactly the sort of place that makes casual browsing turn into a full-fledged expedition. It is full of jewelry, handmade gifts, local art, and all manner of treasures, and so many visitors seem to love the same thing: the sheer variety and the chance to find something that actually feels special rather than mass-produced. That absolutely tracked for us. The Market itself has been a Charleston staple for over 200 years, and it still feels lively, local, and full of character. What really stood out for me was an artist who went by Andy, who had a collection of pop art vinyl records that was genuinely fantastic. Using mixed media, he created pieces featuring different singers, musicians, and bands on old vinyl records, which felt both clever and beautifully done. I chose an amazing Mary J. Blige piece that was also hand-painted, and I was absolutely thrilled with it. The value of your dollar was VERY worth getting one (or more)! Cash only! Overall, this was a thoroughly enjoyable wander and a very good place to find art, gifts, and a few things you did not know you needed. I would happily go back.

Impressive place! The Charleston City Market goes 4 blocks. The shopping experience stretches from…read moreMeeting Street (where you'll enter) to the end of the waterfront. We had no idea until we entered just how far it went; it goes "on & on"! So much history within these buildings. It's one of the oldest public markets in the U.S. Has weathered many storms and has been registered in the National Registry of Historic Places. Established in 1788 (even though the inside entrance stats 1807) & as of today it still stands on the premises of monetary trades & services, as well as shared cultural heritage. There are countess vendors throughout this retail galleria. We enjoyed mainly browsing the works of products that were officially certified as Handmade in Charleston. You won't get tired of looking, but a lot of repeat sellers. It's essentially like a flea market if you will. It was fun, but way too much basket weaving vendors. Was so intriguing to watch the Gullah artistry & understand its importance here, but would have liked to have seen and explored MORE local foods. Wished that they would have had a specific area that was an actual type of wet market/ open-air concept or traditional marketplace that sells fresh, perishable foods like meat, seafood, and produce focusing more on local eats and food heritage of its distinct low country cuisine. There were some food spots, just not what we had envisioned or experiencing with other east coast markets we've been to. Bought a bottled water that was over $5! Other than that, we didn't buy anything else. However, definitely worth a stroll and a unique experience. Perfect touristy spot! *Open daily 9:30 AM-5:30 PM Fri & Saturday Night 6:30 PM -10:30 PM

We enjoyed browsing what the has to offer & thought our coffee were delightful from Coastal Cowgirl Coffee too! My daughter got cotton candy that did t have much flavor just tasty ed of plain sure yet still a fun treat. They have the nicest set up for pets. Little doggie stations that have tents, towels, buckets of water and bowls for them to rehydrate. They go above and beyond for their furry friends visiting the market. Only downside was that it gets quite crowded, fresh produce and local crafts can be somewhat expensive & you have to pay for parking, so you may have a little further of a walk to get there.

I understand the town has to have a benefit too so I get it but more food options would be great even though you can patronize the local restaurants as well. The kettle corn station is a hit for me everytime as the Farmers Market is just a touch of what happens during Flowertown Festival.

There are so many tourists and people in this area and they don't know the flea market is even here. I know that they have enough vendors and that the flea market owners make their money through vendors paying for space so they don't really care as much what buyers show up as long as they fill up their spots, but there are vendors who would like to sell other items than what to Hispanic community wants to buy. If they did more advertising, they could get other clientel out here. It wouldn't be that hard to put up a billboard or two and maybe cater to the tourists because I believe some would come.

It's…read moreheld in Ackerman Park, which is just off Hwy 61/St. Andrews Blvd. The Farmer's Market was supposed to begin on September 14, but was rained out. It's new in 2016, and for the first year and first market, the organizers and City of Charleston did a great job. It's part of the city's efforts to revitalize West Ashley. I saw many vendors who are mainstays at other Farmer's Markets, such as Rio Bertoili pastas and Normandy Farms bread. You could buy honey, cheese, breads, dips, fruits, veggies, and even meats. If you're hungry, options like Roti Rolls, King of Pops, and Gelato are there. Hopefully more ready-to-eat food options will be added in the future. Parking at the park can be a challenge, so I suggest parking at the Food Lion/CVS building and just walking behind it- you'll see the Farmer's Market. I will definitely return to this Farmer's Market when I'm free on Wednesday afternoons. It's a great addition to West Ashley.
