The River Market District has quickly become Little Rock's "don't miss" attraction for locals and tourists alike. Full of shops, restaurants, microbreweries and museums, the River Market District offers a truly memorable experience.

The River Market itself is an exciting public food market that will entice your senses with its relaxing entertainment and rich cultural experiences. The address is Downtown Little Rock's Riverfront Park, 400 East Markham. The district stretches 2-3 blocks to the east, south, and west.
