With the tagline "Marietta's destination for authentic eats," Marietta Square Market opened in late March on Church Street near Glover Park in the Historic Marietta Square District.

In the months since, the food hall, which is often compared to Krog Street Market in Atlanta, has welcomed a steady stream of new restaurants and retail merchants, with a grand total of 20 doing business in the 18,500-square-foot former warehouse space.

Developed by Concordia Properties and Creative Culinary Ventures, the market’s design was inspired by the railroad tracks that run just beyond the back windows of the building, and the build-out conjures the atmosphere of a historic train station, including a patio that resembles a platform.

Along with the sound of locomotives regularly rumbling by, another unique feature of the market is the Trolley. The 1922 streetcar of the style that once operated between Marietta and Atlanta is on display front and center at the main entrance.

And later this summer, the Trolley will be home to Pulp Addiction, a new concept from the team behind Four Fat Cows ice cream, offering bowls, smoothies, juice shots and breakfast items.

Crème de la Crêpe — For something a bit different, French-inspired, locally conceived Crème de la Crêpe (not to be confused with the California chain) offers a simple chalkboard menu with breakfast, savory and sweet crepes, along with soft drinks and house coffee. Le Classique is folded with eggs, bacon, spinach and cheese. Veggie Lovers gets bell peppers, onions, mushrooms and provolone cheese.
