It’s hard to believe that a vibrant market now fills a space that was empty for over a decade. Boston Public Market opened in 2015, quickly earning its place as a foodie destination in the city. Inside this brick building, 35 vendors have made their home under one roof – more if you count the market’s pop-up stands.

If you’re thirsty, you can quench that desire with George Howell Coffee.

Facebook/Boston Public Market This isn’t any old cup o’ joe. Instead, it’s small batch and artisan roasted. Some of the coffee on offer is terroir coffee, a term usually mentioned in connection to wine. In terms of coffee, it means that the beans come from just one source and, when brewed, they impart flavors that reflect that place.

At Hopsters Alley, browse through the massive selection of craft beer.
