A food market inside Grand Central Terminal
Grand Central Market sits within Grand Central Terminal, the New York rail hub that opened to the public on February 2, 1913. The market’s stalls bring gourmet food and everyday provisions into the station, from fresh pastries and produce to cheese, spices and ready-to-eat snacks.
The selection spans seafood, cured meats, wine, olive oils, chocolate, black caviar and specialty cheeses. You can browse for a single snack or bring together several ingredients for a meal. Fresh fruit, pasta, cheese and wine work well for a picnic; grab-and-go food gives you a quicker option.
Oysters, cheese and New York staples
Head to the Oyster Bar for freshly shucked oysters from both the East and West coasts. At Murray’s Cheese, you can explore the cheese selection and take part in a tasting. Other finds include smoked salmon from Zabar’s and sourdough from Eli Zabar, alongside baked goods, fresh produce and delicatessen items.
The market’s higher-priced specialties sit alongside more accessible grab-and-go choices. If you are shopping for a picnic, compare the stalls and build around what you plan to eat rather than treating the market as a single sit-down meal.
