Look out for these at the market
- Farm stands and fish counters share one roof.
- Market Artisans sell locally made, handcrafted goods among the food counters.
Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation manages Granville Island, and the island's own site calls the Public Market the jewel in its crown. Food stalls and farm stands fill the hall with produce fresh from the ocean or the oven. Market Artisans sell handmade goods among them.
Blue Parrot and JJ Bean pour coffee from 7:30 am, and Petit Ami opens at 8:30, so you can get a cup before the stalls open at 9. The market keeps its 9 am to 6 pm day right through winter and opens on statutory holidays. The exceptions are 25 and 26 December, 1 January and every Monday in January, when it closes for annual maintenance.
CMHC acknowledges that Granville Island sits on the traditional territory of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish) and səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) First Nations. The Net Loft building nearby opens from 10 am to 6 pm and holds the Circle Craft co-operative's shop.
Worth knowing
- Plan a January trip for any day but Monday, because the Public Market closes every Monday that month.
- Check each studio's or restaurant's own hours, since the 9 am to 6 pm day covers only the Public Market.
