"Located in the Sweet Auburn Historic District and reborn from a painful past nickname of “The Curb Market,” this 45,000-square-foot Municipal Market now houses over 20 full-time merchants and rotating pop-ups offering oxtails, empanadas, cold-pressed juices, jerk chicken, and hand-cut steaks. I’m drawn to signature treats like the “Triple” at Miss D’s Pralines—a sweet-and-savory blend of caramel, cheese, and butter popcorn—and the market’s role as a living legacy of Atlanta’s culinary traditions." - Wendy Pramik
"Sweet Auburn Market has been around for ages and is an ATL favorite. Choose from a myriad of stands including fresh local produce, Afro Caribbean Cuisine, Soul Food, homemade pralines, or even a juice from the raw juice bar. Say what!? Yea, Sweet Auburn keeps up with the trends." - Flags of Origin
"Founded in 1918 as an open-air market, the Municipal Market (known locally as Sweet Auburn Curb Market) resides on the border between downtown Atlanta and historic Sweet Auburn. The market features dozens of local shops and food stalls offering everything from fresh produce, seafood, and meats to baked goods, sweets, and local restaurants serving Vietnamese, soul food, pizza, and Cajun and Creole cuisine. Restaurant stalls change often here, so it’s best to check online before heading over. Matthew Foster’s popular pizza pop-up Phew’s Pies, known for its iconic lemon pepper wet wings pizza, will be the latest food stall heading to the market. It replaces Panbury’s Double Crust Pies. Closed Sunday. Easily accessible via the Atlanta StreetCar." - Henna Bakshi
"While technically defined as a public market rather than a food hall, the historic Municipal Market (aka Sweet Auburn Curb Market) features nearly a dozen food stalls and a bakery owned by local chefs and restaurateurs. Expect everything from handcrafted Asian sandwiches, Cajun/Creole cuisine, and savory steak pies to soul food, cheesesteaks, and Afro-Caribbean fare served from these stalls. The market, which opened in 1918 as an open-air farmers market, followed by the opening of the current building in 1924, also sells freshly butchered meats, seafood, and produce. It also includes a gift shop and a business hosting a historic market tour and biscuit-making class. Read more about the history of the Municipal Market here. Closed Sundays. The market offers discounted parking with validation." - Candy Hom
"A bustling downtown market full of food stalls, vendors, and specialty purveyors where visitors can sample Jamaican beef patties, cold-pressed juices and smoothies, coffee and gelato, and pick up pralines and popcorn while exploring fresh produce, meat, and seafood stalls." - Eater Staff
