Fulton Galley

"You know spending time together is important, but just because you’re married doesn’t mean you have to participate in archaic social constructs like “date night” where you go out “together” and both order food from the “same restaurant.” Your souls are joined spiritually, but your heart wants pasta and your partner longs for an arepa. Let your eyes wander at Fulton Galley, a food hall in the West Loop with five food stalls and a full bar. Order what you please - Italianette for cacio e pepe and Fairview for rotisserie - and get a glass of wine." - adrian kane

"Fulton Galley closed in November 2019 after only five months in Fulton Market. The closure wasn't directly tied to the pandemic." - Naomi Waxman

"Last summer, Sriratana introduced Pink Salt to Chicagoans as a stall inside Fulton Galley, the food hall that closed before the pandemic, five months after it opened on Fulton Market." - Ashok Selvam

"Chicago’s Fulton Galley folded abruptly in November after just five months of business." - Brenna Houck

"One could describe 2019 in Chicago’s food scene as the year of the food hall. Many of them — including Aster Hall, One Eleven Food Hall, Wells Street Market, and the aforementioned Time Out Market Chicago — debuted since mid-2018, and many more announced their impending openings in 2019. Which makes the quick shutter of Fulton Galley even more surprising — or not — depending on one’s point of view. If food halls are so trendy how did one fail so quickly? Is Chicago’s dining scene finally becoming oversaturated with food halls? How many food halls can survive in the city and how many do diners really want to visit? These are fair questions after Fulton Galley’s ownership threw in the towel after just five months in business — and less than one week before the much larger Time Out Market would debut with many famous chefs just down the street." - Daniel Gerzina
