How market is such a wonderful place to hang out, have a drink, eat some delicious food, and shop from really thoughtful vendors. They care about the community they are a part of and it’s always a great time. Love the live music and look forward to it coming back.
Bow Market has transformed Union Square into my favorite metro Boston destination. The variety of indie shops and the food and drinks, concentrated in a small outdoor mall scattered with outdoor seating, offers a shopping experience free of the chain drudgery during the day and livens up into a nightlife destination later on. From their new year's eve party to the rotating pop up features, there is always something new for me to check out while revisiting old favorites that have stuck around.
A smaller version of Quincy Market in Union Square, it’s pretty much a courtyard with two stories of food vendors for you to order food and drinks from. Parking is terrible and hard to find on the street, so come during lunchtime when it’s less crowded. Also, make reservations to get an umbrella table, which they charge $6 for but worth it bc of how small the courtyard is and everyone wants to sit there.
We ordered from the Blue Fin Raw Bar where they offer lobster roll as a slider (great for us women who don’t want to eat a whole sandwich) as well as a half dozen oysters which were so fresh and light. Ordered drinks from the wine shop right by the entrance and all in all had a wonderful time. Will definitely go back!
Wow this lil spot has blown up !! So many cool shops & restaurants. Adorn Me Africa with beautiful African fashion and jewelry, esp from Ghana & Nigeria, there’s cool vintage clothing store, Egyptian restaurant, vinyl record store, coffee and much more. It’s vegan friendly when it comes to the restaurants, as I’ve come to expect from Somerville! Also the inclusion of many plants in the patio design makes for great ambiance.
Gorgeous hang out location for a group of friends or a date! It is hidden in between unsuspecting buildings, but you'll probably find your way there because people are always walking in and out of this place!
Lots of great food! Food is on first floor and boutiques are on second floor. Grab a seat in the shade while you can. It fills up quick.
