Market Square has a cool feel to the place. I just feel that it needs a bit of a shot in the arm, get a few more places in there. However, the couple of places me and the kids went to too, they loved. My oldest had to go back just to look at some of the kitschy goods! Safe feeling and immediately adjacent to Chinatown, Market Square is a lovely place to check out, a decent 3.5!

I think Market Square is one of those places locals tend to take for granted because it’s always been there. I’m guilty of that. Despite passing by this place countless times over the years, I didn’t take the time to actively patronize it until this past August. What I found was a nice blend of eclectic boutique shops and eateries housed within a historic setting perfectly fitting of Victoria’s Old Town (see my earlier review of “Old Town” on this site).
The impetus for my visit to Market Square was Wannawafel. Specializing in Belgian liege waffles, Wannawafel gained a modicum of fame following their successful appearance on Dragons’ Den (2010). I found the dining experience disappointing (see my review), but, after I was finished, took this as a golden opportunity to fully explore Market Square.
The sky was clear of clouds, but smoke from the BC wildfires obstructed the blue sky. I moved gingerly throughout the Square thanks to a foot issue I was dealing with at the time. Nevertheless, smoke and discomfort didn’t detract from the overall experience. When I visited in late August, Market Square was surprisingly quiet; however, I didn’t complain because it made for a peaceful stroll through this historic part of town. I checked out a couple boutique shops – Little Shop of Strange and Oscar & Libby’s – before taking a moment to sit and people-watch for a while. And that’s when it struck me: Market Square reminded me, in many ways, of Vancouver’s Yaletown in microcosm. Like Yaletown, Market Square is a former shipping and trading hub that’s been converted into a successful commercial center. The brick and beam heritage buildings further entrench the comparison, in my mind.
A historic part of town – Market Square – re-purposed and contemporized for modern tastes. It’s a great use of heritage buildings and keeps this part of Victoria lively and colourful. If you’re in the area, do take some time and check out the unique shops and eateries in this attractive space.

This area was almost deserted when we wandered through on a Thursday. Perhaps it would be more busy over a weekend? It was pretty with colourful flowers in the garden beds and hanging baskets, and brightly coloured tables and chairs!

We stayed at the strathcona in down town Victoria. We had a great time and were able to walk where ever we wanted to go. The Market square was cool and eclectic for.shopping and eating. We were a few blocks off of government street and it was near the harbor. Fantastic sights to see including China town.

We were just wandering through, but still picked up the good atmosphere from the bars, restaurants and shops in this converted shipping/trading area.

There is a wide variety of shops to choose to breeze through or to take more expensive time to find very interesting local art and gift ideas..plenty of places to rest with very interesting scenery... also a wide variety of restaurants and Coffeeshops .. close to the Johnson Street Bridge and Chinatown.. Market Square is located between Pandora Avenue and Johnson Street and fronted by Stote Street..

We had expected some activity in the large patio area - Wednesday morning, no rain. It was basically empty!
The surrounding shops had nothing of unique interest to offer. We left after 15 mins!!

中にはいると中庭があり、テーブルとイスやベンチがおいてあり、のんびり過ごせます。中にはレストランや雑貨屋などがありますが、お店によっては外側からしか入れないようになっていました。

Can you buy local produce and meats here? We are staying at a place that provides a kitchenette and wondered if you offered fresh foods?

The closest grocery store to downtown would be the Market on Yates at 903 Yates Street. I have walked there when I was staying at the Empress Hotel. Could also take a cab.
