My wife and I are visiting the states and stopped in Savannah for a weekend. Living in London, we are fortunate to have access to many of the finest art galleries in the world. After a carriage ride through the city we browsed the galleries in City Market. Among the corridors and catacombs of City Market we were surprised to... more

The business owners are very friendly and there are some fun shops to check out. If you plan on eating there, be prepared to have a wait, not to sit, but to get your order taken, to get a drink, to get your food, to get your bill. If you are in a rush, don't eat here. There are neat... more

You definitely have to pass through this once while you are here. It has some nice shops and places to eat (both high end and casual). The carriage rides also originate here. more

There are a few really excellent places to eat/visit when in City Market 1) Cafe Gelatohhh! - hands down the highlight of CIty Market, a little cafe that specializes in gelato, Italian ice cream. In addition, they also serve excellent coffee, and have just recently (as of Fall 2004) brought in some of the greatest paninis, a traditional Italian sandwich,... more

Never had much chance to shop. Once we heard Bucky and Barry's music it was all over. We spent the first afternoon and the last listening to great music in a beautiful city. more
