Faneuil Hall Marketplace

Located in the heart of downtown Boston, Faneuil Hall Marketplace is the nation's premier urban marketplace. It combines the glories of the past and vitality of the present, with 49 shops, 44 pushcarts, 13 full service restaurants, and 35 food stalls.

Across the street from Boston's waterfront, the Marketplace is comprised of three restored 19th century buildings. A blend of Neoclassic and Greek Revival architecture, the complex is a beautiful representation of old Boston, tastefully enhanced by urban contemporary additions.

Ethnic foods, unique gifts and street performers are just a few elements that make the cobblestone streets of Faneuil Hall Marketplace such a festive and special restaurants and pubs feature varied menus, and are open for lunch and dinner. During the warm weather, the outdoor cafes are a perfect spot to relax and have a meal or appetizer and drink.

Faneuil Hall Marketplace's "Bull Market" was the country's first pushcart shopping area. The Bull Market's fleet of wooden pushcarts, housed under the Quincy Market glass canopies, is constantly changing to reflect the seasons. Named after the bull atop Quincy Market's weathervane, the ever-changing Bull Market pushcarts provide an opportunity for New England artisans and entrepreneurs to showcase and sell their creations.
