Chelsea Market

Chelsea Market, located in Manhattan’s Meatpacking District, is one of New York City’s most iconic indoor food halls and retail marketplaces. Housed in the former National Biscuit Company factory, where the Oreo was invented, the market retains its industrial charm with exposed brick walls, steel beams, and vintage signage.

The interior is a bustling maze of artisanal food vendors, boutique shops, and pop-up stalls, all set within a long arcade that invites exploration. Its blend of historic architecture and modern design creates a unique, immersive experience for visitors.

Owned by Alphabet Inc., the parent company of Google, Chelsea Market has become a global culinary destination, attracting over six million visitors annually. Its unique selling point lies in its diversity: from fresh seafood and gourmet tacos to handmade pasta and international street food, the market offers a taste of the world under one roof. It’s home to some of the city’s most beloved food purveyors and has earned acclaim as one of the most trafficked and written-about destinations in New York. It’s a must-visit for food lovers, design enthusiasts, and anyone seeking a slice of NYC’s vibrant culture.
