    I love this market! It's the perfect blend of produce, food ready to eat, and artisans/crafters. We make it a point to visit every time we are in town. I highly recommend the Philipino lumpia and the Korean barbecue truck. Often y there's fresh squeezed lemonade too but not yesterday.😥

    Worth the stop if you’re near the Cummer museum. They had delicious coffee along with a goat milk/product stand. Lots of handmade items made to be explored. The live music was a blast as well, added to the fun nature of this market.

    First time visiting the market. Lots of vendors. Really enjoyed the unique earring vendor. Found delicious breads too. Plenty of parking but it was a bit crowded. The bathrooms were decent too.

    Lots of art and various food trucks available. There are also restaurants nearby, walking distance. Very family and pet-friendly and we were lucky enough to see a few dolphins near the bridge. Cool place to hang out on a Saturday morning. Doesn't feel super busy, but there are a lot of people. They have a main stage area and some folks were performing, not sure if it's every weekend, and I believe it was for charity.

    Had a really nice time walking around under the overpass admiring all the artists' displays. Everyone was extremely friendly. Saw lots of dogs enjoying the weather too. Enjoyed a craft beer while sauntering around. Major good food trucks.

    Wonderful place to buy handmade gifts and order your lunch or snack from a food truck. Gorgeous views and lots of families. I'm not a big dog person and there were more dogs than I have ever seen before in a public space for people! I did love watching watching folks practicing, performing and making their crafts.

    First time ever visiting the riverside arts market with my friend who’s a native in Jacksonville and I enjoyed it so much! There were so many local artists, artisans, small businesses and delicious foods and local food trucks to try as well! It’s open rain or shine every Saturday from 10-2 and there’s plenty of parking as well around it. I will definitely be coming back soon!

    We visited the RAM, Riverside Arts Market, this morning and we throughly enjoyed our visit! I highly recommend stopping and spending some time supporting local artists and vendors. We purchased some amazing produce at one stand of many, some stunning earrings for my wife from two different artists! Though we didn’t eat there, the food trucks were many and had a great variety of different items. All in all, it was a wonderful experience and we will be back again!

    A fun, artsy, and pleasant experience! The location under the bridges and interstate is interesting but unique and fun in a way. The variety of shops and food trucks is great and the live music added a fun piece to the already lovely atmosphere.

    Plenty options for food. Great place to take a date, family or find someone attractive to approach. This is a local foodie haven! You'll love it here

    Always a good experience at RAM. Lots of vendors and some excellent food trucks. Parking is packed but not too hard to find a spot in the designated areas with a little patience. I was there this time for the North Florida Folk Network performers.

    Wonderful, if I could go every weekend I would 😍 Amazing atmosphere, cute dogs, and lovely view. Riverside arts market always has the best vendors from all over the city and some of the best food truck. If you haven’t been to the arts market then you’re missing out on a lot of fun. The arts market is from 10am-3pm and it’s every Saturday (rain or shine). Live music, trivia, and I nice place for kids all by the water. Bring family and friends to enjoy this amazing place. Also, a great a place for first dates! Come hungry because you’ll enjoy so much food.

    Wonderful variety of vendors, beautiful artwork of all kinds, food trucks & local bakeries selling breads, pastries at their booths, local honey, etc. Entertainment too. But the river view & direct access to the walking path across the Fuller Warren Bridge is such a plus to a beautiful Saturday morning in Jacksonville, Florida!

    Nice place to spend a lazy Saturday morning and maybe come across something you "just can't live without. Nice that it is underneath the overpass to help with the summer heat. And if you are lucky, you'll get to see a dolphin or two in the St. Johns River.

    A Wonderful place to visit and shop, listen to live music or do free yoga. Right on the beautiful saint Johns river. The 95 overpass is right over head so it in shade and free of those afternoon thunder storms. A beautiful experience for the family or singles.

    We just moved from Minnesota where there are huge art fairs, but each one lasts only a weekend. The Riverside Arts Market is big but not quite as big as the ones where we come from, but it's EVERY weekend. It's busy but not hordes of people jammed in shoulder to shoulder. Plenty of parking in nearby lots and streets. There are many fine artists, crafts, food, and a farmers market. And we found a new painting for our new home. If you like art you have to go.

    I love RAM! There are so many cool vendors as well as a great variety of food trucks. Situated on the river, and under the bridge it gives you plenty of shade and cover if it rains. It also has a stage where a good band is always playing. I just wish it stayed open a little longer on Saturdays.

  • 5/5 Sydney V. 9 months ago on Google
    Large outdoor market in the shade with lots of baked goods, produce, food trucks, art and jewelry. This market is very pet friendly with many homemade dog treat sellers who even had puppy ice cream! Lots of dogs and lots of people. Would definitely recommend!

  • 5/5 Lainey G. 1 year ago on Google
    So much love for RAM! It's a collection of really great artists and local entrepreneurs with live music. All in all, it's a fun environment. Plus, you can access the Jax Riverwalk and take a little stroll or go to the Cummer on one of their free admission days (check their website).

  • 5/5 Brad S. 1 year ago on Google
    What a cool niche, we walked the new Fuller Warren Bridge Pedestrian/Bike Path over the river with incredible views, 3 bands scheduled to play, fresh produce, probably 100 craft tents, dozens of tasty food item’s: deserts, grilled meat, fresh breads, huge shaded area under the bridge, no rain or sun, paved cool dry space, great place to get some lunch and browse around a bit, luv it

    I stumbled upon the market as I was walking along the River Walk one Saturday morning from my hotel in downtown Jacksonville. It was a wonderful, surprise find. There were several food truck vendors and one even had dairy free ice cream. The lines weren’t terribly long either. There were several vendors from soap makers to authors and everything in between. I was able to support a few black owned businesses and hope that they’re able to add more in the future. Overall, this was a great way to spend my Saturday morning/afternoon and highly suggest it for locals and visitors.

    A great market under the interstate and next to the river. It is also close to the museum so you have more to do. They had around 10 food trucks and a picnic table area for sitting and eating. There is also a stage set up closer to the river with music during lunch. A great setup for a Saturday exploring the area.

  • 5/5 Nrupal D. 1 year ago on Google
    A lovely and lively place, which is open on Saturday morning 10 am - 3 pm. Full of interesting things, many handmade articles, great food and lots of pets. A melting pot of people, the besides the river. It’s a nice place to spend your time to buy some fresh vegetables from local farmers, eat and soak in some positive energy. If you are in Jacksonville you must pay it a visit.
