Richmond Public Market

Went to Richmond Public Market and it did not disappoint. There’s a huge selection of Asian food that looks delicious and authentic. We ordered from several different stalls and were very happy with the quality of the food. Make sure to take the stairs or elevator up to the food court. The ground floor is great for fruits, vegetables, and non-perishable items, but upstairs is where all the magic happens.

Lively and packed with character. The food court upstairs is full of hidden gems, especially if you’re into authentic Asian eats. Downstairs, there’s a mix of produce, specialty shops, and random little stalls that make exploring fun. It’s a bit chaotic in the best way. Feels like a slice of everyday local life that hasn’t been overly polished. Great for a quick bite or just wandering around.

There is a convenient parking lot, although it can get a little crowded, and you might need to wait for a spot. The building has two floors. The first floor sells daily essentials like vegetables, groceries, books, keys, and even live seafood, which makes browsing quite interesting; the second floor is a food court. The choices are standard but satisfying, and the prices are reasonably fair. Even though fresh produce and meat are sold on the first floor, the space is kept very clean, which I really appreciate. The place may be a bit old, but it still feels clean and bright.

It looks like an Asian mall here. Nothing much to get nor shop for tourists. There are a couple of decent food options. Free parking is a plus.

Came here for the food court upstairs. Some shops be killing it while some are a little dreadful. The competition is fierce with any Asian style food courts. Can still find a couple gems though. Just go where there is a line up or constant take out orders. There will be deals! The place is a little dated and reminds me of of Crystal Mall in metrotown or an older food court in Kowloon side of Hong Kong.

Very good food. Be aware that it is hit or miss with the service at the food court or food stalls. I was one of the very few non-Asian customers at the market. Some stalls was treated like everyone else, some stalls was made to wait (10mins +) while many others who came after me, who were speaking the same languages as the servers were served before. Street hawker style food court. Standard price across the board for 2 or 3 item meal. Be aware of portion sizes, they are huge. A meal could easily serve 2.

First time here even been living for years!! I regret that I didn’t come earlier for the food court , everything that we ordered from 3 different stalls were so good!!

Remember if the escalator is out go to the back where there a elevator. Use that to go to second floor. Has lots of parking. The food court on second level haz great choices with some places. 16 dollars 3 choices with noodle or rice. It my frist choice to go to instead of a regular mall for chinse food
