Bow Market

"An annual event at Bow Market featuring a variety of soups from different vendors, including sancocho, coconut taro sago soup, tortilla soup, and cream of mushroom soup." - Erika Adams

"Cool food hall Bow Market is a one-stop shop for a weekend hangout, even if you have a large crowd with wildly disparate interests, as you can secure a spot in the buzzy courtyard — possibly a table with a fire pit — and sample from a smorgasbord of primo vendors. Pair a snack from Saus (vegetarian sandwiches and poutine), Taquisimo (Tijuana-style birria tacos), Buenas (empanadas), or Carolicious (Venezuelan food), with natural wine from Rebel Rebel or craft beer from Remnant Brewing, browse boutique retail stores, and maybe even catch some live music." - Nathan Tavares, Valerie Li Stack

"There’s a little something for everyone at Bow Market, a Somerville food market known as an excellent incubator for up-and-coming restaurants in and around the city. Try South Shore-style bar pizza from Hot Box; vegetarian burgers and sandwiches from Saus; thick swirls of hummus and hearty falafel from Petra Mediterranean Cuisine; and a whole lot more." - Erika Adams, Rachel Leah Blumenthal

"It’s no secret that Bow Market is perfect for a group — it’s choose-your-own-adventure style so everyone in your party can get what they’re craving most. Gather around a fire pit or take advantage of any of the several other ways to enjoy Bow." - Celina Colby, Erika Adams, Karen Wilber

"With numerous food and beverage vendors on-site, Somerville’s Bow Market is a good place for groups to gather when everyone’s in the mood for something different. The central courtyard is open year-round, and the majority of tables have fire pits." - Rachel Leah Blumenthal, Adam H. Callaghan, Erika Adams
