Fairgrounds Farmerโs Market is a great source of prime produce, custom cut meats and cheeses, excellent baked pastries, doughnuts, and artisan breads!
Monte Lauro will provide you with amazing imported Italian meats and cheeses along with many specialty Italian foods and some of the most authentic crusty breads and rolls! It has been my familyโs source for our annual gatherings! The best antipasto components that have been the served at all of our โHoliday Eveโ events for years.
Dutch Maid bakery caters to your sweet tooth with some of the best freshly baked pastries, which in my opinion feature the best Walnut Sticky Buns to be found anywhere in Berks County!
Keaggy meats, Hoover Produce, and Go Fish are highlights that draw us back time after time.
Salinoโs, is another source of quality Italian food including the best hoagie in Berks; Scottโs Ultimate Italian, has become reason alone to head south on Rt. 61 for lunch weekly!
Amazing Pho, authentic Sushi and Rolls, Noodle Bowls, excellent Rotisserie Chicken, Adelphi seafood, PA Dutch Salads, and the delicious โDouble Smokedโ meats provided by Smoketown Meats mean there is something for...
ย ย ย Read moreFairgrounds farmer's market is filled with numerous options for prepared and fresh products. The meat at Smokehouse is a bit expensive but fresh produce looked great with decent prices. The prepared food varied wildly. I wish I could recall the name, but there was a stand that had lots of BBQ and run by Mennonites, it was positioned towards restrooms in the front of the market, I had their food and I wouldn't recommend it and the one person seemed to have an attitude personally towards me.

Ps also a rather crowded place, I wouldn't recommend for those that have difficulty with mobility, unless they have a way to rest comfortably themselves, because...
ย ย ย Read moreTruly an amazing place. Humongous farmers market only open Thursday thru Saturday. Went on a Friday around 11 and the place was packed. There are dozens of small business owners that have their shops setup inside the market. Many are local Amish and Mennonite families that live locally and have farms where they grow their own produce and raise their own livestock. Everything is so fresh and there is so much variety. Delicatessens where you can get cold cuts, specialty meats and cheeses, sandwiches, homemade pickles, potato and pasta salads, and so much more. Any type of fresh meat or produce you can find here. Tons of baked goods like cakes pies and donuts. Some of the BEST fried chicken I've ever had from Penn Dutch Poultry, and I'm from the south so that's saying a LOT. If you have never been to this Farmers Market do yourself a favor and GO! Tip: bring cash as a lot of kiosks and stands don't take plastic. There is an ATM on site if you don't...
