Hollins Market is a food market in Downtown, Baltimore.
Hollins Market is Baltimore's oldest continuously running public market, dating to 1836 in Southwest Baltimore and reopened in 2024 after a $2.1 million renovation, with butcher, seafood, produce and cafe stalls under its iconic clock tower.
Tip: The 2024 reopening reset the vendor mix; the produce, butcher and seafood stalls are the strongest reasons to make the trip west of downtown.
Address: 26 South Arlington Avenue, Baltimore, MD 21223
