Mark your calendars, Raleigh food enthusiasts and artisan aficionados. The Raleigh Foodie Fare is here to transform your Sunday market experience. In what appears to be a match made in local heaven, MAKRS Society has joined forces with Raleigh Parks to curate a free event that promises to easily mix the region's taste for good eats with a flair for handmade goods, according to the City of Raleigh's announcement.
Set against the green backdrop of Moore Square, visitors can expertly to navigate through a smorgasbord of more than 20 food trucks, each offering up their own unique brunch and lunch options. There's a catch, however: you might find it difficult to choose between savory and sweet. For those ready to explore the artistic side of Raleigh, over 40 local artists and vendors will be displaying their crafts and creations. And what’s a market without a little ambiance? Live music will fill the air, ensuring that your shopping and gastronomic adventures are accompanied by a rhythmic beat.
Of the plethora of choices available, Elevated Coffee comes recommended for the caffeine aficionados, while Umbrella Dry Bar offers a range of non-alcoholic refreshments for those looking to quench their thirst sans booze. But if a pint is more your style, Brewery Bhavana will be on-site with their best brews. The mood is set for a perfect Sunday outing: pack a picnic blanket, grab your choice of sustenance, and kick back under the North Carolina sky.
The Raleigh Foodie Fare has been designed keeping all ages in mind, making it a perfect spot for families, couples, or even a solitary retreat. The events stretch through the latter half of the year, with market days slated for July 20, September 21, October 18, and November 16. To fully indulge in the market experience, you can plan to spend your time from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. with some of the best Raleigh has to offer.
