Everything you ever wanted, under one roof! Lexington market is a real treat to go to. Make sure you bring cash, as most merchants here do not take credit/debit cards. You'll find all kinds of produce, fresh fish and meats, and prepared foods. The prices are excellent - it is easy to get a great meal for under $5. The sheer number of stalls can be overwhelming, so take some time to wander around and look at all the choices - something is bound to make your mouth water. Take your meal upstairs, where there are tons of tables ... read more

Nice food choices but sketchy area Lexington Market is a food market in downtown Baltimore. I've only been in it once and that was enough! While they did have many food stands that looked like they sold wonderful fresh produce, meat, and international foods, the area is scary. There are pickpockets and thiefs all over and I hear it's riddled with crime. We (students at UMB) are warned not to go up there at night. Though grocery stores are lacking in the downtown area I'd personally make the drive out of town to shop instead ... read more

A must-see Lexington Market is an exciting place to visit - I always bring out of town visitors. It is alive with all kinds of people and dozens of vendors and shops. It's also a tiny bit on the scary side, as it is surrounded by a not so nice neighborhood, so I'd recommend only going in groups. You can get a real deal on produce and meat, or choose lunch from one of many great vendors.

Great range of foods..pretty good experience This was on of the largest food malls i ever saw.

I felt as if I should be on guard and keep my bag close to me whi... read more

All the seafood you can stand Definitely check this place out if you are visiting from out of town. There are booths for practically every kind of meal imaginable, but the specialty is seafood. It's basically the only offering in the basement. All of the merchants are local, and it's a great way to support the city. The prices are much cheaper than eating at a sit-down restaurant, and there are lots of tables available. Kids and squeamish adults might find all the fish lying around to be a little gross.
