Time Out Market Boston is officially open to the public, starting today. The highly anticipated food and cultural market brings the best of the city under one roof, right at the heart of The Fenway neighborhood. There are 15 eateries with food from some of Boston’s top chefs and restaurateurs, exciting craft cocktails and cultural experiences from local talent – all handpicked by Time Out Boston’s editorial team.
Located at the former Landmark Center at 401 Park Drive, Time Out Market Boston offers 15 eateries, two full-service bars, a retail shop and communal-style seating across 25,000 square feet.
Time Out Market Boston’s opening hours are Monday to Friday from 7:30 a.m. and Saturday to Sunday from 9 a.m. with some eateries offering breakfast items; all other eateries open at 11 a.m. It will close Sunday to Thursday at 11 p.m. and Friday to Saturday at midnight.
“Time Out Market Boston brings a new and unique experience – the next great food and cultural destination – to the city and one of its greatest neighborhoods, The Fenway,” says Time Out Market CEO Didier Souillat. “We are incredibly proud that Boston’s most outstanding chefs have accepted our invitation to join Time Out Market – they have all been carefully chosen by our Time Out editors to bring the best of Boston under one roof and offer a true taste of the city. Our guests get to choose from over 100 fantastic dishes every day of the week from morning to night: whether guests are stopping by for breakfast to get coffee, smoothies or an acai bowl, enjoy seafood, mezze or pasta for lunch, or an evening of craft cocktails, pizza or culinary masterpieces with family and friends. It is our mission to democratize fine dining – we are making fine dining casual, and casual extraordinary.”
Food halls operating nationwide have increased from 160 in 2016 to a projected 450 by the end of 2020, as Banker & Tradesman reported last month. The halls’ many options give landlords like 401 Park Drive’s Sammuels & Assoc. a leg up on corporate campuses that rely on catering services for on-site meal options as skilled workers spend longer hours on their jobs, with less time to go wandering a neighborhood to explore food options.
