The Broadway Market

At 999 Broadway St. in Buffalo’s historic Broadway-Fillmore neighborhood, The Broadway Market runs as a seasonal market centered on an indoor mix of food vendors, specialty counters, and services. The market is currently accepting applications for its 2025–2026 season, reinforcing its October-to-April cycle rather than a short summer run. Inside, the lineup stretches well beyond produce stands alone: seafood, meats, pierogi, bagels, sweets, prepared foods, hats, soaps, jewelry, banking, and an optician all appear in the current roster. That breadth makes this market feel closer to a year-established public market hall with a seasonal operating window than a once-a-week curbside setup.

What you'll find there

The strongest pattern here is a food-first indoor lineup with old-school market staples alongside prepared foods and a smaller set of gift, personal care, and service businesses. Several vendors keep weekday hours, while others concentrate on Saturdays, so the mix can feel different depending on when you go.

• -Find sweets and roti from Buffalo Halal Sweets and Roti House.

Know before you go

The parking setup is the detail most likely to shape your visit. The Broadway Market has a three-level parking ramp with entrances on Gibson and Lombard Streets, but there is no elevator; the second level reaches the market by escalator, and the third level is staircase access only. No strollers, walkers, or wheelchairs are allowed on the escalator, and handicap parking is available only on the first level. Street parking rules are specific too: Gibson Street on the east side has no parking, Lombard Street on the west side has two-hour parking plus some handicapped spaces near M&T, and loading is limited to the area in front of Broadway Optician on Broadway. The market also states no dogs and no restrooms.

Payments & SNAP

SNAP/EBT is accepted at The Broadway Market. The market also has clear payment information on site and includes an M & T Bank branch inside the building, which can be useful if you want cash access while shopping among vendors with different sales setups.
