If you've ever been to Reading Terminal Market in Philadelphia or Quincy Market in Boston, you know how tempting the sights and smells of the food vendors are. On your next trip to Lehigh Valley, a visit to the region's newest stop for foodies is an absolute must!

Meet the Easton Public Market. Now, this isn't to be confused with the historic Easton Farmers' Market- that hasn't gone anywhere (find them in Centre Square on Saturdays, 9 a.m. - 1 p.m., May - December)! The Easton Public Market is located just down the street at an indoor location, which means you can enjoy tasty meals all year round. Here, you'll find artisanal food stands, fresh produce and fish, a demonstration kitchen, and so much more.
