The marketplace is an old concept: a single building, or area of town, where people could go for food, groceries or any other goods they might need. Now, Huntington has a new food market that you must visit.

The Market is a new marketplace in downtown Huntington with unique food choices and a few other shops.

This location was a nightclub for many years before closing down. Once that occurred, a plan was set in motion to revitalize not just the location, but also 3 adjacent ones as well.

The building on the east side of the market was demolished and is being repurposed as an outdoor patio with tables and decorated with criss-crossing lights over the open space for nighttime dining. The three abandoned buildings on the west end of The Market have become two new restaurants (Charlies Granger's and Peace, Love & Donuts), which are accessible both from the street and inside The Market itself.
Butter It Up! is a restaurant that serves farm fresh food, including breakfast, lunch and various coffees. Selections include omelettes, salads, sandwiches, subs, and flatbread. They even have burgers with three choices of meat: beef, elk and camel (yes, you read that last one correctly).
