Coppell Farmers Market is Coppell's newly relocated farmer's market located in Coppell's downtown district. It's a suburban farmer's market, but you can expect to find typical farmer's market items in a new, clean, & family friendly pavilion.
My Overall Rating - 4 Stars (Atmosphere, Service, Vendors, Return)
Atmosphere - Coppell Farmers Market is located in a brand new area off Main St. There is a large, primary pavilion that is covered which houses many of the vendors. There's also several that line up on the street. Plenty of parking is available, and there's also a great children's playground attached. It's fenced in to allow kids to play while you explore the market. It's also close to several Coppell mainstays, like Coppell Deli, Local Diner, & Hard 8 down the road. 1 Star.
Service - All the vendors are great. They kind of have to be since you're buying their goods. Bring cash for fast transactions. Honestly I didn't check if any vendors accept credit cards. 1 Star.
Vendors - There are some worthy vendors here, including Village Baking Company from Dallas, Round Rock Honey, and then you have several artisan vendors. My apologies for not getting company names, but you can buy cakes, cookies, grass fed meats, plants, and pastas. But one strange thing I noticed was there were very few produce vendors. Now, I went on the 3rd Saturday of the month, and my understanding is the 1st Saturday has the most vendors. It would have been nice to have more "farmers" at this market. 1 Star.
Will I Return? - Yes - As I've stated before, I support local/small businesses. Coppell Farmers Market is a great alternative to other farmers' markets, especially if you live in the area. I could even see myself coming back to the playground after a visit to Coppell Deli. Bottom line is Coppell Farmers Market is a must visit if you are within the area. 1 Star.
My Yelp Rating Scale (Sum of all parts):
1 Star - Atmosphere - Is it a cool dive? Perhaps an upscale place? No matter the type, atmosphere plays a big part and I'll give a star if I like it or thinks it has great charm.
1 Star - Service - You can have a great meal with bad service. But that's also what can make a five star joint drop to four. It's important to the dining experience that service is great and on point.
2 Stars - Vendor - I'll award up to two stars for the vendors, since this is the main reason we visit. Sometimes the extra star is given for value, but it's really all about the vendors.
1 Star - Will I come back? - If I know for a fact I'll return, I'll give this a star. A place has to make an impression for me to return.
Each Category can be given up to 1 star except food (2 stars) because I consider all these categories important to the overall dining experience. I will sum them up to provide my final Yelp score.
