Om
Raske fakta: Over 40 independent vendors pack into this 1920s warehouse turned food hall, from empanadas to oysters shucked on the spot. Weekend crowds hit 15,000 people, all sharing long communal tables under hanging string lights.
Høydepunkter: Step up to the back bar at La Jambe and order the crab bisque with sherry, served with a salt-crusted biscuit that crumbles into buttery pieces. On Saturday mornings, the rauchbier at the beer hall sells out by 11 a.m., so regulars line up before the doors open.
Insidertips
- Grab a seat at the chef's counter at Rappahannock Oyster Bar to watch shuckers work through bushels of Chesapeake oysters.
- Skip the front entrance parking lot and head to the garage on 5th Street NE, which costs half as much.
- The best photo spot is the neon 'Union Market' sign against the brick facade at golden hour.
- Arrive before 11 a.m. on weekends if you want a table without hovering.
