This approach ensures that the Market remains not just essential for the local community and its vendors, but that it also elevates its surrounding neighborhood and drives traffic to the area as a beacon for locals and tourists alike. Our team is always on the lookout for talent and experiences to bring to our Markets. Is one of the best parts of Time Out Market knowing how it helps bring the community and business together?Ībsolutely and it’s tied to what sets us apart. Something many of us missed during the pandemic. Communal tables bring friends, strangers, or solo diners together to eat, drink, and enjoy.
It works for the most straightforward reason: human connection, no matter the size or format. It is a sacred element you will find at all of our locations and one we feel will be 2022’s strongest dining trend. We’ve worked to own the “communal dining” space since the start of the brand in 2014. Key activations drive footfall on slower days and times and make Time Out Market a destination on key “going out” days of the week.Īnother differentiator is that you will not find a two-top or four-top at any of our locations. We focus on creating curated experiences that showcase our connection to the local community and give our guests a reason to come back regularly. We like to say, “If it’s good, it goes in the magazine, if it’s great, it goes into the Market.” Besides the top-tier food and drinks, award-winning chefs and restaurateurs, what sets us apart are the many experiential and cultural events we host regularly. Time Out Market is unique, in that it’s the only global food hall experience curated by the people who know each city’s food and cultural scene inside out. What makes Time Out Market different from other food halls? Instead of simply talking about food culture, Time Out brings the community together to experience the greatest hits their cities have to offer.
In the following years, millions of locals and tourists visited, and the team at Time Out decided to roll out this unique, editorially curated food, cultural market, and community hub to cities around the world. A place that previously housed the city’s top food retail vendors was transformed to bring together the best chefs, drinks and cultural experiences based on the editorial curation Time Out has been known for since 1968. In 2014, Time Out Lisbon editors turned a historic market hall in the city into Time Out Market, creating a physical representation of Time Out’s editorial recommendations and cultural insight.
