Reviews for: Central Market House

I love to support local historical place that I bring my children too. We love the atmosphere and the wonderful foods. I love getting fresh veggies and the shopping is awesome.

fantastic selection, consistent quality. This market is a chef''s paradise, especially when you're committed to using locally grown.

This is a Historic Downtown Market and is beautiful. Great places to eat like J.R.'s Fresh Cut French Fries, they have the best cut from fresh french fries I have ever eaten. All their Combo's are great and very reasonable, most under $6.00. They now take credit cards so its easy if you don't have enough cash after buying all your fruits, meats and vegetables at the other stands.

When I first visited the market I was shocked by how many local merchants there were, we decided to have lunch and shop around. Like others have said I support this market and would love to see it stay open/

It is housed in a BEAUTIFUL building and has local merchants. Best of all, it is open year round!!

I used to work in downtown York and have lunch there on the days they were open. I support this market and want to continue to see it stay open and continue to support our local farmers.

Historic Downtown Market with great produce, meats and lunches. J.R.'s Fresh Cut French Fries has the best fresh cut fries anywhere, they also have great Combo's that include a sandwich a fresh cut fry and a 16oz drink, most are around five dollars including tax. They have great hamburger bbq, fish, oyster, crab cake sandwiches, Texas Hot Weiners, pulled pork bbq, chicken strips, onion rings and great home made peanut butter fudge for only $5.00 a pound. Wow.

Great Fresh Cut French Fries at J.R.'s Fresh Cut Fries in the historic Central Market House in York. They have the best food at J.R.'s Home made chicken pot pie, oyster, fish, and crab cake sandwiches and the best Hamburger BBQ.

This is a beautiful old market house that rivals many in large cities like DC. The people are friendly & hardworking and are committed to the buy local buy fresh movement.

In my opinion, Central Market House is one of the best places to go in the city.

Local artists and farmers make the Central Market house unique, and the more support for them, the better!

It is a 200 year old Market that celebrates the history of central Pennsylvania agriculture and the health and well being of the community.

It is a beautiful building from 1888--the heart and soul of York City. The market is doing its best to revive in the midst of a society that has all but abandoned its downtown community.

I LOVE going the Central Market House, it has been a staple in York County community since before I was born. It's so much fun to visit the market and all my lovely friends there. Everyone is great and there are so many wonderful vendors. I can find the freshest produce, whole foods, locally made candy, crafts, and yummy restaurants. The Central Market House holds a special place in my heart :)

I work downtown and love to go to Market Tuesdays & Thursdays. There is such a great array of choices for lunch!

Central Market is a weekly stop for me. I love grabbing breakfast, lunch, fresh produce and foods, fun gifts and running into friends and business associates.

It is such a special part of living in York. I always feel like I'm home! Everything about the place - the architecture, the vendors, and their wares are wonderful!

It is the favorite place to go for breakfast on a summer or Saturday morninging!

The Central Market has an eclectic mix of art, antiques and of course fresh produce, cheeses, meats and sweets!!!

I love our local farmers and want them to stay in business. Central Market is an integral part of our city's history.

It's very clean; and, has lots of variety in produce, prepared food, handmade items, gifts, etc.

I love to see the hardwork of the local farmers and bakers. It is great to know that I can get fresh fruits and vegeables for my family. We love to also to meet daddy down town to have lunch. It is a GREAt family tradition.

I love the local food! It's nice to see friendly faces that you've known for years and new ones

The market has been there for years and provides many great places to go for lunch or to buy deli items

It connects us to our past and to the greater York community in ways few places can.

it is a beautiful historic property that offers much to downtown, but needs some TLC to return it to its former glory.

I love the variety. It would be such a tragedy if the market were to leave downtown York. We really need it.

Fresh produce, dairy, and meats combined with good coffee, interesting people, and exciting shops along Beaver Street - there is no better theatre in York!

It's an icon of center city York, PA and it's a worthy place of winning the money!

I grow up at this market. My Great Grandparnets (David & Ella (Leader) Markey) and then my grandparents. I worked at the market since I was old enough to go along with my Grandmother and until I started a full-time job. I miss going to market, but not getting up at 3:00-4:00 in the morning to set everything up just the way my Grandmother wanted it. It's a great tradition in the York Area. Keep it going.

Central market house, more than any other entity, personifies the York community.

Local farmers/vendors, great atomsphere, close to my house, great veggies/prices, etc.

The Central market has been an integral part of the community and local economy for over 100 years. Aside from the obvious historic value, it serves a loyal and expanding clientele as a gathering and social venue, dining and of course the purchase of local food and products.

Central Market House is the oldest market house in America. It's an upbeat place to visit: piano music while you shop for delicious and nutritious food. Visits are memorable and fun!

It is family oriented that showcases the great local produce and supports the community!

I love the market! Best food ever at Mezzo and then you can pick up some local groceries and a cup of coffee on the way out! Also I bought knit hats as X-mas presents this year that were well received!

we love all the homemade goods and picking up fresh flowers at the Lincolnway stand.

Local farmers, potate chips, candy, plants, etc. Have been going to market since the 70s and make sure it is a stop when I am in town.

I love walking to Central Market House for lunch -- there is a great variety of vendors, and I can grab lunch and even produce/grocery items for dinner.

My neice has a simply soups stand there and her soups are doing wonderful. I would like to see the market do a wonderful business. Thank You

This will be a wonderful improvement for York. It will encourage the consumption of locally grown produce, it will help support the local economy and it will promote the use of sustainable energy.

It is a great place to meet friends, family, colleagues, clients, etc. you name it! It's the perfect social gathering with a family-friendly atmosphere. Oh, did I mention the food is always fresh and fantastic?

Such an enthusiastic and hard working group deserves our support! We love farmers markets - especially this one.

My cousin David Yates is an extraordinary energy conservationist and has his heart and soul into this project for renovating this historic building. He will do great things with this award.

I like knowing where my food coming from. There is great, fresh food sold by great, hardworking people!

We are a food vendor and buy from our fellow farmer vendors whenever possible..

Because I support the entire farmer's market concept, including the increased availability of safe foods that encourage and support good health, local growers (and this the local economy) as well as the healthy social contacts and sense of community that the farmer's market environment promotes.

Central Market House has something for everyone! From vintage clothes and knick-knacks to the Creative breakfasts and Paninis at Mezzogiorno. It is a great place to catch-up with people from around the area and the vendors are all very friendly and willing to talk to you about their goods. Check out Robburitos' newest location in the silver bread van!

I support central market because of all the friendly vendors. I've been going since I was little, and still see many of the same faces and vendors. At Central Market, it's not just about the food, but the overall experience.

Central Market is a beautiful historical building filled with friendly vendors offering great food and specialty items. I love going there for lunch during the week and brunch on Saturday. It is a must see and do!

I own a store on the corner next to Central Market and it is wonderful to see everyone pour into town on Market Days. Fresh, organic foods, good restaurants and friendly faces make it a destination!

it's local vendors, selling local produce and products, supporting local economy. How can it be any more simpler?

The Market house has so much history and is such a personal experiance. As a kid I remember visiting Central Market with a field trip from school. When I went back to the market as an adult I remembered how much fun I had. Which was my only recollection of York city(since I was from the country) and it was a very positive one!!!! So as a child I had a good experiance with York city and later bought my first house and moved there mainly because I enjoyed my trip to market 14 years earlier. Its a great place to visit as a child and an adult!

Central Market is an unparalleled sensory experience. The sound of vendors, the smell of baked goods and the rainbow of colors in our local fruits and vegetables. Beautiful red and yellow bell peppers, ripe red grapes covered in light mist, and corn, corn, corn.

Whether I'm meeting for breakfast or lunch or taking my family out for a treat, Central Market is always at the top of my list!

The biggest, butteriest, most deliciousest soft pretzels known to mankind. That's all.

It's a local treasure! Filled with fresh produce, delicious prepared foods, and unexpected delights, Central Market is an irreplaceable landmark and community resource.

It is our hub of activity in downtown York PA - serves as an anchor for economic, social and evironmental activity in the heart of our downtown.

Central Market House has food that makes my stomach happy!!! Happy stomach = happy brain, and happy brain = happy me, therefore happy me = happy stomach. Syllogisms rule.

They offer some of the best local products, but don't limit themselves to just produce and food.They allow local merchants to sell their handcrafted items as well. A great place to shop for groceries, find a special gift, or just grab a bite to eat!

Because I like all local markets... and happen to have family that really support this one!

Been going there all my life. The architecture is stunning, but it's the vendors who really make this place a weekly destination for my family. Fresh foods sold by vendors who grew them instead of produce and butcher meats that traveled thousands of miles.

Love to have lunch and shop for fresh produce and meats on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Also a great place to spend a Saturday morning drinking coffee and eating fresh baked pastries.

I've grown up in this town and love going to market! I now own a business inside Central Market and would love to see this market be THE destination for Downtown York! It has everything fresh, local and delicious!

We love to have Saturday breakfast or lunch at the Market. Also a great place to buy fresh flowers or produce.

Central Market House has been part of my family when my great grandmother Ella Markey had a stand, she can be seen in the mural across the street from Central Market House on Beaver Street. Most of my family has worked in market in some way or another. I opened my business there back in 1999. Lots of my family still own and operate stands in the market today. Besides all the great fresh local foods, you can enjoy meeting your friends for a good cup of coffee or an excellent lunch. Central Market is special gem in York!

Because it is a rich cultural and historic landmark in our community that fills a vital need for interaction between the residents and our local farmers.

Great offering of fresh, local foods. Heirloom plants, great values on local meat and cheese products, fresh seafood and deli offerings are there as well. Interesting fresh cut flowers, sandwhiches of all types and most importantly, freindly vendors and visitors with great architectural and historic surroundings

Central Market House is part of the York County culture. It's the place to got to get local meats and produce as well as catch up with friends.

You can shop for the freshest produce and prepared foods while enjoying the incredible richarsonian romanesque architecture.

Over 120 Years old - in the heart of York City! This is THE place to be seen on a Saturday morning!

I love the fresh produce. The Central Market House is the hub of all Saturday activity in York, PA. And most importantly, I think my great grand father was the general contractor on the building. George Yinger.

I love the fresh produce and cheese. Most of all the fact that it's been here in for about 120 years.

No better place to be Green and help the environment then shopping at Central market. Their vendors are great and offer a wide variety of fresh fruits and vegetables as well as many other items from Green thinking floks. Great facility. Easy access. Pleasant place to visit and buy.

I appreciate the workers helping to select produce and very friendly. I can buy local dairy (organic) and produce as well. there is a social and personal atmosphere and we can share meal with friends.
