Here’s what you’ll find on the shelves:

  • Gluten-free pastas and snacks
  • Artisanal goods, including tinned fish, olive oil, and cheese
  • Packaged soups, dips, meals, and more made by the Haymarket culinary team
  • Fresh flowers + home goods

Haymarket is open daily, 8 a.m.-8 p.m. + the drive-thru is open daily, 6 a.m.-6 p.m., and there are plans to open a micro market and coffee shop in NuLu this fall.
