Mexican and Latino markets in the United States

42 verified businesses.

The market — a plaza of many independent stalls — is one of the most interesting formats in Mexican commerce in the United States, and the least documented in guides. Under one roof you find produce stands, butchers, prepared-food stalls, candy shops, stationers and services such as money transfer.

There are notable examples nationwide: Latino commercial plazas inside repurposed shopping malls, weekend open-air markets with agricultural roots, and galleries holding dozens of independent units. For anyone who cooks, they are the best place to find unusual produce and specific regional food.

Every market on this list has been verified individually. Watch the hours: some open only on weekends, so it is worth confirming before you go.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between a market and a Latino supermarket?

A supermarket is a single business with its own departments. A market groups independent stalls, each with its own owner and specialty, which usually means more regional variety and food cooked by people from different Mexican states.

Are markets open every day?

Not always. Some run daily as commercial galleries, others are weekend markets. Each entry publishes the opening hours where we could verify them; an empty field means we did not confirm it, not that it does not exist.

Can you eat at the market?

In most of them, yes: food stalls are central to the format, with antojitos, seafood, tacos and aguas frescas. The line-up often changes depending on the day of the week.
