Guide to Hargrave Street Market

Where is Hargrave Street Market Located?

Hargrave Street Market is located in True North Square (242 Hargrave St) in downtown Winnipeg, positioned perfectly for attending sports and entertainment events in the city. It’s within easy walking distance from many downtown venues, including the Canada Life Centre (MTS Centre), the RBC Convention Centre, and more. 

There are multiple entrances to the market, including at the street level, through the skywalk system, the Graham Avenue transit mall, and some downtown parking arcades.

Parking at Hargrave Street Market

There are multiple parking arcades surrounding Hargrave Street Market, as well as paid parking spots on the streets surrounding it; provided there isn’t a large sports game or concert in town, you should be able to easily find paid parking nearby. During busy times, i.e. when the Winnipeg Jets play at the Canada Life Centre, you’ll also find many parking lots open for parking.

Is There Seating at Hargrave Street Market?

Hargrave Street Market has mostly communal seating, with large tables and bench seating set up throughout the space. There is also bar seating at the Rose Bar. However, if you eat at Gusto North, you’ll have your own table, and there are many smaller tables set up outside in the plaza during summer. Gusto North also accepts reservations, whereas the rest of the food hall does not.

During the day, it’s not too difficult to find a seat, unless you go during the busy lunch rush. For any event – think a Jets game or major concert – you’ll want to head there early to guarantee a spot to sit.

What Can You Eat at Hargrave Street Market?

If you want to sample some of the best of Winnipeg’s food scene, Hargrave Street Market is an excellent start. It’s also one of the best places in Winnipeg for a pre concert meal or a bite before a sports game. In fact, we listed the entire market as one of our top choices for the best places to eat in Winnipeg because of its high quality and amazing diversity.
