The Marietta Square Market is finally open on the Square, offering a single location for a variety of cuisines available to Cobb County residents and visitors. The Market’s opening was pushed back multiple times over the last year, and excited crowds flooded the space on its first day of business.
The massive food hall offers a variety of food, drink, coffee and dessert options, which can all be carried around and eaten in any of the Market’s communal dining spaces. Just in time for spring weather, patrons can grab a bite and a beer out on the dog-friendly patio, or pull up a stool to the outdoor bar seating.
The Cobb County Courier has followed the project’s development since the early days of planning, and now we have a full list of dining and retail options offered at the Market:
