This place is very expensive for what they offer. Hard to find a meal for less than $15 to $20 and the food is just ok in my opinion. I think the pizza was inexpensive but I did not try that. If you consider yourself a foodie you may like it. I think the Revival Food Hall in the loop has a much better selection and is slightly more reasonably priced (only slightly).
Grand opening @ Time Out. Enjoying the food and the vibes. Come out!
Nice place with a lot of good food. It is a bit expensive.
This place is amazing. It's kind of expensive but the experience is worth it and the food is phenomenal.
Ate at FARE, inside the market. I wasn't sure which bowl to order, the girl behind the counter was extremely helpful. I told her chicken thighs and red pepper sauce and she could back into that with vegetables. Beets, carrots, and avacado... Absolutely amazing!
Fun selection of tasty food in a very social communal seating
environment. I removed a star bc the music was extremely loud
which made conversing difficult. I would return again to try more food options and hope the music is lowered to a more tolerable level. Some
food stations said they can do takeout, but not all.
Awesome variety and great values on different tiers! Kids pasta making class was great! Highly recommend this place.
Great atmosphere and awesome place to try tons of different foods. Would love to come back!
Great selection of food, fun energetic vibe, easy to get around inside, and good for when you can't decide what you want to eat...lol
Giant indoor food market. Crazy number of dishes to choose from. Everything you can imagine, from French croissants to classic Chicago hot-dogs, or Thai dishes. Modern, hangar - style interior.
Good selection of cuisine and drinks. Logistics can be tough when crowded to find a seat or get by people in line. Overall pretty good, but the biggest issue is how loud it is. Very difficult to have a normal conversation. It's not a club, the music doesn't add anything, I don't get it.
A little overwhelming, but only because there are so many great options and it s hard to choose! It s a great place to bring visitors from out of town or stop by with friends for lunch/dinner.
Note to Time Out: I wish there was a way to pick up items from multiple places and check out all at once!
Fun. Choices. Casual. Friendly. Upbeat. Go there for good food and the atmosphere.
Go for Secret sound and arami. The fried chicken was also good
Amazing place! Food is fantastic and the atmosphere is fun... Not a quiet joint, but that is part of the appeal.
In theory it's a great idea but what you end up getting is a tourist trap that charges you an arm and a leg for mediocre portions
Decided to try Decent Beef... Not so much. They should be called "Barely Decent...". They barely put any beef on the sandwich - lame compared to any legit Italian beef sandwiches. The beef barely had any flavor. The people working barely cared about this. Hell, I'd pick Portillos over this place every time.
This was a great place to eat everything was fresh & good
Fun place to try out some of Chicago's best offerings. It's a nice social environment with lots to choose from. Easy to get in and out.
Can't beat this place. It has a bit of everything and the open floor plan makes for people watching entertainment. Most places here are quite pricey.
Great place to sample lots of different foods in one place.
Love this place but they get super busy which is only a testament to how good the options are. Still it would be more enjoyable if it weren't so crowded.
extremely slow, overpriced small menu versions of otherwise great Chicago restaurants
I totally tried 3 different spots in one seating. They were all super nice and delicious. The idea is great and it couldn't be more thoughtful about the developing area. Will definitely try the rest of the joints.
Great options, yet multiple meals and I ve not had any that I really enjoyed. FEW, if any option for kids.
Had an amazing ramen/broth bowl special from Bill Kim, Tasty pie from Sugar Cube and delicious cocktails from the bar. I look forward to going back to try some other restaurant stalls. Love the concept.
Big cafeteria space beneath a giant skylight. High tables with halfback chairs and normal height tables with stools on the ground floor. Tables are long communal tables. Upstairs their are small tables with chaos with backs and bar style seating overlooking the ground floor eating area. Food from bill Kim's booth was delicious. Wine was very expensive and the pour was definitely not generous. Lack of table delivery and separation of all the options makes putting a full meal together very difficult as you either have to leave your stuff unwatched or work out a convoluted foraging scheme. Much prefer politan rows system of delivery to a number marker. Even McDonald's has this service!
Great foods of all kinds in one place. Love the fulton market location.
It's a great food hall. Definitely worth checking out with a ton of options and varieties of food. Some of it can be on the higher end, but the vibe in the place is super lively. I love the seating options as well and it's totally worth checking out the upstairs. The food that I've tried so far has all been fantastic.
Bunch of amazing foods with a spin to try. Awesome time to hang out for a bite with friends.
Really enjoyed the wide variety of options. Truly a location where everyone can find something they like. I definitely see myself coming back.
Lively contemporary space with a eclectic mix of food vendors with appetizing offerings. Parking is difficult though and food prices are a bit on the high side for what you get.
What a rip off, I left hungry. Over priced but nice scenery
A marvel of concept, you don't need a craving because it covers everything
Great variety of food! Very busy and sometimes hard to find a table, but worth it.
This was my first time eating here. The place has a variety of food to choose from ranging from street food to unique fancier options. The place was crowded because it is still new, we were able to find seating. The best thing to do is to get food from different places and share. The only issues I had was the server staff would constantly ask us if we were done with our food when we still had food on the plate. They would also take the plates away the second we finish. Other than that I ll be back to try more options. This place also has dessert stalls serving pie, cake, popsicles.
It's a modern food court. The restaurants are small, focused, and produce excellent food. With roughly a dozen different restaurants to choose from, the variety is huge, almost overwhelming. Thank god they each have a limited menu. Great ambiance with plenty of seating inside, although it does fill up quick during busy hours.
Had several dishes from different counters there. Drinks were good, seatings were comfortable, but food is horrible.
I'll definitely be going to Time Out on a regular basis. All the great spots are there! You can't go wrong with Pretty Cool and Lost Larson under one roof.
I wanted to like this, but it s over hyped. I would rather just go the actually restaurants. If you re just looking for a scene, than you will probably enjoy the place. But typical west loop crowds, not my scene.
Many kiosk to choose from and all are excellent quality and are extremely delicious. Haven't had a problem yet.
Great places to choose food from, all in a lively ambiance. The John Manion empanadas and the burgers at Mini Mott stand out but you get the sense they all are very good.
The upstairs seating configuration makes no sense. Service at the beer bar on the 1st floor was rude. Collective tables don't make a ton of sense given the crowd/style of eating. Fairly expensive for what's available.
Loved the vibrant atmosphere. This is a newer type of experience for Chicago and this food hall is clearly popular. Loud because of the large open space but set up well. Food choices are wide. The drinks can be simple or creative depending on your selection. Draft beer options are good with a few local options.
Variety is wonderful. Try the brussel sprouts at Brian Fisher. Amazing. Also fun events at demo kitchen too!
Cool space in the now crazy Fulton Market. Good any time of day. If you want to work done avoid on the weekends when it gets packed.
Great chance to try a bunch of different food and drinks. Definitely a place to visit on a trip to Chi-town.
Saw the chef on WGN preparing a a meal on tv, of course he was making a dish with No GLOVES. HE WAS IN THE REATUARANT SO THIS IS HIS ROUTINE DAIROUTINEROUTINE
Really good, in a hip part of town (Google have offices there). Lot's of bars and restaurants around, but not much else. The whole part of town would be good for "brunch time" on a weekend, but especially time out market. We had meatball subs, which were perfect on a cold winters days
great place to meet and catch up with friends. similar to a place in denver i liked.
Lovely space filled to the brim with Chicago s finest culinary treasures and craft cocktails to boot. Wonderful spot to meet friends before a night on the town.
Expensive good food, and a tight space
It's like if Taste of Chicago was there all year around. Expensive food and mixed size portions for a big price and plus Chicago tax plus Chicago food tax.
Would you really wanna spend $30 and feel like you ate satisfactorily?
Been here multiples times since it's open and I've been pleasantly surprised each time that I've come. I have pics attached but def go to Purple Pig and get the grilled cheeses, you can add bacon but it's amazing without. Then go to Mott's and get the original burger, it's unreal! Make sure you add in an order of cheese curds and finish it up with a piece of cake. Full bar on hand to wash all of that down.
Bunch of unhealthy fast foods under the same roof, nothing special at all.
Excellent food and drink options, and cosy environment
Proper spot for a nice afternoon out with a small group or even larger one. Parking is next to impossible and very expensive, so Uber. All around great food
The food and atmosphere are great, the prices are up there. Don't go if you dont want to listen to loud music.
Portions are kinda small and prices are a like high. It was good but no desire to go back. Your better off going to Portillos or Lou Malnatis
I agree with all the reviews. Great choices, delicious food and very attentive and nice staff. I love this choice in my neighborhood. Definitely catering to millennial's who can't commit to one food choice, but you should know something really important. The gratuity that you leave at the counter for every item never reaches the people who are actually picking up all of your plates and keeping this beautiful space clean. Not one penny. So I left off a star.
When I asked a manager, he could only say that bussers were under a different contract at an undisclosed hourly rate, along with their dishwashers. I cringed at his (my opinion) dismissive, "this comment will never go anywhere" 20-something experience. I have been a waiter in my past, probably longer than this guy has been alive. Staff is as important as food. They will learn this as they get more and more turnover and as thei tables pile up with dishes in peak times.
I have been in the food business for almost 30 years. My advice, which I think feel on deaf ears tonight was to put signs out on the tables encouraging guests to tip the very kind and hard working people clearing the tables. What's the harm in that? I hope I see this happen. Otherwise, it's an amazing addition to our west loop restaurant community.
expensive but worth for the experience, especially with a group
This place reminds me of Ballpark Village near Busch Stadium in St Louis. Lots of food options with happy-hour beer specials. Would come back
Cool place with some of the nicer street food options in Chicago!
Fried chicken sandwich was all dark meat. Not my thing. You have to serve yourself water from the corner of the atrium.
I wish I had more time and a bigger stomach. Everything we tried so many different dishes and they were all good. I will have to come back and try some more.
Showcasing the best of what Chicago has to offer, for a price, and they seem to have missed that Chicago has some of the best water on tap.
The stuffed sausage and pepperoni pizza had a very thin layer of sausage along the crust edge of the slice and a single slice of pepperoni on top.
Wife loved the mussels, personally not a fan, but the lemony garlic sauce with bread is delicious.
Duck fat hot dog is definitely overrated/overpriced ($10 for a Chicago style dog) and they sold me on the loaded fries...which they proceeded to forget to load to their sole customer of the hour.
Please get some water fountains/stations up!
Definitely open to give it another go as they work out the kinks, but 8pm on a Sunday (though it is Thanksgiving Sunday) and there were more workers standing around chatting than patrons there.
They are back! Super friendly staff, lots of outdoor space.
I love a good market, and Time Out Market offers the best of what Chicago has to offer. This market is located in what seems to be an old warehouse. I love the community seating in the center of it all on the first floor. All seating on the first floor is high top, so if that is not your thing then make your way to the back of the second floor. On the second floor there is an area with couches that overlooks the dining area and the large television. We hung out here and watched the All Star Game with a fantastic view.
First, can I say thank you for having the Art of Pizza here? I feel like they are often overlooked, even though I think they are one of the best pizza places in Chicago.
Duck Inn Dogs - We had the cheese curds, and in my opinion they were just alright. The breading outdid the cheese, and then they also put a ketchup as well as an aioli sauce all over the top of them. I would have asked for that on the side, but with the breading and sauces, which added a sweetness, the cheese was overpowered. Next time I'm here, I hope to try their elote corn dog, but I would pass on the cheese curds.
Decent Beef - When trying the best of Chicago, you can't go wrong with an Italian Beef, and at Decent Beef they kick it up a notch with using prime rib. The bun was great with a nice crunchy outer crust. I would order this every time I come, probably with extra meat next time.
Split Rail - We came during a wing special, so we got 8 wings for $8. I got their house made hot sauce on the side. The wings were nice and crisp, with great flavor, and super juicy on the inside. The sauce was spicy and tangy. I would definitely order again.
Brian Fisher - I wish I would have tried so much more from here! We only had the peanut butter egg roll, which had duck confit and veggies inside, and it was PHENOMENAL. I would order this again any day, and it was my favorite item of all the things we tried. Next time I'm going in for the brussel sprouts and that butterscotch croissant is on my radar too.
John Manion - The Porteno Poutine was so tasty! They took your average poutine, and added chimichurri, and there were crispy pieces of provolone... my mouth is watering just thinking about it again. I was really eyeing that Maximo beef rib, which is a little pricey, but feeds two. Next time
Secret Sound - I had the Golden Glow, which was strong, but didn't taste overpowering like alcohol. Nice, smooth tropical flavors. My husband had the Ghost + Empties, which was Secret Sound's take on an old fashioned, but with some subtle banana flavor. Each drink is $15, and to order you have to go to the window on the second floor and ring the bell.
I really enjoyed the flavors that Time Out Market Chicago offered, and I can't wait to come back and try some of the same things, and some new things. You have to hunt around for parking, but because we went late on a Sunday night, there was street parking available. All vendors inside the Time Out Market take card only, no cash. They have a large demonstration kitchen, so I will also be back to check that out!
Great place to explore menus and try some of the best food in Chicago.
The place is clean, have great food, atmosphere and it couldn t be any better
All about choice here. The diversity of flavors you're able to explore is quite a treat. Plates left me a bit underwhelmed in portion size, I left still a little hungry. However, everything my table ordered was delicious.. Brussels, mussels, pork belly, lamb burger, sushi. Make your way up to the third floor bar to get away from the crowded main level and enjoy a relatively more relaxed atmosphere. They could use more bussers at peak time, but everyone was doing their best.
Great food hall, but a bit on the expensive side. Fantastic location and layout. Fun place for some tasty food and inventive drinks.
Lots of different restaurant options to choose from
Great collection of great food and drink in one place with comfortable seating
