Soda City Market

GO. If you're thinking about going, just go. The name "Soda City MARKET" makes you think this is some quaint little farmers market like most you may have visited elsewhere, but this is something different. It's like a festival that spans about 4 blocks, so many vendors selling everything from art to dessert, music, and lots of different food trucks to try. I was feeling homesick and having trouble finding Hispanic food restaurants in my area, but I found Ecuadorian, Cuban, Colombian, Mexican, and Venezuelan food all on one block. The atmosphere is great, there are cute doggies everywhere, just go and take your time walking around. Parking can be a bit of a challenge, but there are a number of cheap parking garages close by that help. I paid $4 for 3hrs in the Washington Plaza garage. Get there early because everything starts shutting down at 1pm. Have fun!

What a cool outdoor market! Great mix of local food, art, and produce. If you are in the area it is worth the effort to check it out. If I lived in Columbia I would shop every weekend. Highly recommend.

Omg, I so loved this. It was busy, but a great place to get out & do some walking, eating & shopping with family & friends, o & your fur babies. I will definitely be returning.

Make sure to come out Saturday mornings 9a to 1p. A bunch of great food trucks and many different vendors. It's a great family experience or even a 1st date spot ALSO CHECK OUT KISS MY GRITS located in front of East Bay Deli

I loved the variety of cuisines and goods at the market. There was nearly everything from Turkish coffee to Thai street food. I tried a bubble waffle with fried duck which was an interesting combo from the Bubblicious food truck. The waffle was a bit dry and was cinnamon flavored so I didn’t think it paired well with the duck but the presentation was nonetheless impressive. There was also a wide selection of pottery, jewlery, curated vintage clothing, candles and other creations from local artists that make perfect souvenirs or gifts for loved ones.

The city of Columbia SC does this every Saturday all year long. About 4 or 5 blocks long with vendors and food trucks and entertainment put on by different people from kids to adults. It's a fun way to spend a Saturday morning. Been 3 times already. It's a must see.

It's is an explosion of culture, small businesses and community. Parking is definitely a challenge. New to Columbia. We've been twice and a different experience each time. Go experience, you won't regret it.
