Findlay Market is Ohio’s oldest continuously-operated public market and one of Cincinnati’s most famous institutions. The market is the last remaining market among the many that once served Cincinnati. Other markets included: Pearl Street Market (1816), Fifth Street Market, and Court Street Market (Court Street still has market days).

Findlay Market was founded in 1852, The market is located north of downtown Cincinnati in Over-the-Rhine, a historic neighborhood known for its dense concentration of Italianate architecture. Open Wednesday through Saturday, with some vendors open on Sunday, Findlay Market is home year-around to about two dozen indoor merchants selling meat, fish, poultry, produce, flowers, cheese, deli, and ethnic foods. On Saturdays from March to December, the Market also hosts a farmers market, outdoor vendors, street performers, and special events. Findlay Market is a gathering place for people from all over the city. It routinely attracts perhaps the most socially, economically, racially, and ethnically diverse crowds found anywhere in Cincinnati. They come for the sights and sounds and smells of an old-fashioned public market, for the great variety of fabulous fresh foods, for bargains, for people watching, and for a quintessentially urban shopping experience.
