South Florida's much-anticipated Delray Beach Market has finally opened. Standing four stories tall and offering 60,000 square feet of hospitality vendors, the market welcomed its first visitors on Saturday, April 24.

Designed by real estate developer Menin along with Clique Hospitality, the 150,000-square-foot market on SE Third Avenue in the heart of downtown Delray Beach is now home to more than 20 vendors offering eclectic, local flavors.

A new flagship destination for Delray Beach’s three million annual visitors, the market represents several newsworthy firsts for Florida, according to its creators: It's the first to offer equal parts community center, art emporium, and culinary melting pot and the largest market to break ground in Florida.

Food, drink, art, and programming that includes live music, culinary schooling, celebrity activations, and innovative events elevate Delray Beach Market to a new level, says Menin president Jordana Jarjura.

"We're bringing back the American Dream of entrepreneurship and reinventing the food hall experience in a big way," Jarjura tells New Times.

Food options cover breakfast, brunch, lunch, dinner, and cocktails. A complimentary electric shuttle ferries people from beach to food hall. Powered by Freebee, it operates daily from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. and uses a mobile tracking website that provides estimated wait times.

If you're just looking to eat, the Delray Beach Market's online ordering system lets guests buy from any vendor, allowing you to gather multiple items into a single order available for take-out, delivery, or pick-up.
