Melrose Market
• 06 January 2011
Our first two months here in Seattle were pretty difficult, and some days I just needed to find a happy place to wander about for an hour. Enter: Seattle's Melrose Market. I'd read about it in Sunset and thought it sounded right up my alley. In one tidy, little space you'll find a sandwich-maker, (I lived off the Eggplant Swiss at Homegrown during the month of December!), cheesemonger, butcher and florist; which, is coincidentally a mini produce stand as well. Also available at Melrose Market are housewares, fresh baguettes and the chance to dine at the lovely Sitka & Spruce--a restaurant so delicious it's entirely full on weeknights. Next door to the market is a rockin' record joint for those of you who love a little vinyl. In all, it's a wonderful place to visit if you want to experience some amazing food options in a relatively small time frame.

This place looks amazing! There is a place pretty similar to Melrose Market in Charlottesville, VA. Main Street Market was a wonderful haven for me while we lived in Charlottesville for a couple of years. Thanks for sharing!

This place looks awesome. It looks so unique. I love places like this. If we lived in the area I would probably be there a lot.

ReplyDeleteThis place reminds me of Main Street Market too, Amanda! In fact, it was my first thought when reading the description (followed by... wish I hadn't moved away from Cville). I love the photos of Melrose Market - especially those light fixtures, the signs and the flower canisters.
