This is my favorite location in Knoxville. There are more restaurants and clubs here than any other single place in town. Fun and food and something going on every weekend.
The market square area has so many great local restaurants and shops. A great place to spend time and have a meal while you are in town.
Downtown Knoxville has really came into its own the last decade! Many restaurants and the Tennessee Theater and New Theater has really given a choice for being downtown! Market Square has several places to eat and unwind! The skating rink and Christmas lights are always a atmosphere of tranquility and nostalgia...Often carriage rides are a warm welcome! Would recommend the springtime views with the Dogwood Arts Festival or The Biscuit Festival...Highly Recommend!
Market Square is a great place to visit for lunch, dinner, and a good night one the town. My favorite area in downtown Knoxville.
Market Square has so many restaurants to pick from I wish I had time to try them all! Cafe 4 is my favorite. There is some really cool artwork throughout the city too.
Market Square is THE place to go in downtown Knoxville. It is home to a dozen restaurants of various menus and prices, several pubs and sports bars, boutiques and gift shops, and even the cosy Hotel Oliver. During the warmer months it also is home to a very popular Farmer's Market on Wednesdays and Saturdays. And it's just a short block off Gay Street, which has more shopping, restaurant, and bar options, as well as the Regal Riviera cinema and the Tennessee and Bijou Theatres, which offer a wide variety of live entertainment.
We went hoping to see an open air market. It was not. I am not a shopper so for me it was just another central so area. You would have to go yourself to make a judgement. I would not need to go again.
Market Square is located in the downtown area of Knoxville. There are wonderful shops and restaurants dotted along the square. In the spring evenings there are free concerts. The square is a nice place to spend some time with a date or the family. It is a great use of space in an urban area. Market Square is a nice clean area and should not be missed if in the area.
Being a Knoxville native, I will always have a love for my home. There is a lot to do, see & so much history all over the city & county.
We really liked the Market Square area. It has several quality, small quaint shops. It also has several interesting restaurants with usual and unusual food items at fair prices. We say several college age young people at the restaurants.
