Cambridge Market Square

Great variety of international street food and drinks. I was visiting Cambridge on a very cold day and got a lovely honey lemonade with berries. Very warning and tasty, would definitely recommend to try.

Went there for my favorite falafel wrap! The wonderful owner gave a taste of a piece of hot falafel dipped in hummus. I go there every time I visit. Also bought a few Christmas gifts at the market.

I found Cambridge Market Square underwhelming. For such a historic and vibrant city, I expected something more distinctive and rooted in the local culture. Instead, the stalls felt generic, selling things that could be found in almost any market elsewhere. There wasn’t much that felt uniquely “Cambridge” about it. The food options were particularly disappointing. Nothing stood out as something I’d want to try again, and the prices were on the high side for what was being offered. I wouldn’t really choose to eat there, especially when there are so many better places around the city. Overall, the market lacks character and originality. It doesn’t showcase local produce, crafts, or specialties in a way that would make it worth visiting. Honestly, there’s nothing that makes it feel like a must-see in Cambridge—it could just as easily be anywhere else.

Lots of businesses set up in the market square making it a lovely place to stroll through, grab a snack, and do a little window shopping. Tried a lamb pastry from the Eastern European food vendor which was served steaming hot and was tasty. I think in general the market is a little pricey but that’s to be expected.

Cambridge Market Square truly offers a delightful experience, and I was particularly pleased to discover the abundance of halal food options available – a welcome surprise, as such choices often feel limited elsewhere. Beyond the wonderful food, the market is a vibrant hub brimming with diverse offerings. From unique retro clothing finds and stylish hats to eye-catching jewelry, there's something to capture every interest. The tempting array of desserts and sweets is hard to resist, and the stalls overflowing with fresh, colorful fruits and vegetables are a testament to the local produce. In short, Cambridge Market Square really does seem to have it all!

Best place to find snacks and food during the weekend in Cambridge.

Awesome place to get some street food! Mexican, Greek, Spanish, Venezuelan, Nigerian, Indian, Chinese.. Such a variety!! And do try the bubble tea from the polite Japanese owner!!

very busy local market, has few benches nearby for sitting down to eat/drink, worth to look around if you don’t know what to eat for lunch/dinner or simply just grab some snacks to munch.
