This is one of my wife and my favourite places in town. The selection of shops runs toward higher-end food and drink places, with a casual, airy environment. They have taken some pains to maintain the look of the building in its original incarnation as a steel fabrication plant, so the atmosphere tends to be relaxed and comfortable. Weekends usually see a large variety of booths for local small businesses down the markets centerline, and there is very frequently live music in the evenings. If you are looking for a good, relaxing place to take a walk around in the morning or afternoon (most of the shops close down at 6, aside from the restaurants) then it is most definitely a great spot to stop. If you enjoy a walk, park down at Riverfront Park, and stroll the half-mile or so down the loop trail to Pybus. Makes a great, refreshing afternoon walk!

Charming, clean, with quality products, excellent space overall. A must-visit on your trip to Wenatchee! Walk on the pedestrian bridge over the train tracks, and the market is on the waterfront. Each stall at the market is well designed, as though each has its own interior designer. Weather you want to shop, have a meal, get gelato, enjoy beer or wine, the market has something for everyone. Someone got it right with a tourist vision for downtown Wenatchee: walkable, bikeable, waterfront, and access to local businesses downtown. I cant believe I missed this on my last business visit and only saw the chain stores. Now Im already planning a leisure trip. As a tip, most shops closed at 6pm on a weeknight when I was there, still enjoying a beer.

The shops are ok, they are all local-ish, when it was in concept phase the community was told it would be all locally or meet in Washington merchandise and food items and be very much like a farmers market. I have lived in quite a few states and of travel the US and been to many farmers markets this feels like an outdoor strip mall with a roof over it. I know the community itself has tried extremely hard to bring the farmer market feel to it but the management of pybus will not allow that. The building and community itself have amazing potential this is an extremely talented community but management is the problem.

Love it, and although its a small public market, it has alot good quality & offerings. I gave 4 instead of 5 due to the continuous problem Ive had with shops closing super early! I take my boys there on Fridays for music and Sundays for brunch, and although Fridays are a little better, places still close HOURS before the market closes. And on sunday, several times now, we cant go to many of our favorite shops because they closed by 2pm! Very disappointing when Sunday is my only day off to shop with the family. Id spend alot more $$$ if the stores were open later.

Well its about time! What a treat to finally have a Market Place near the waterfront. In time Im sure Pybus will become quite an attraction as it matures and gains in aesthetic & warmth. I love the copy cat neon PUBLIC MARKET sign, so reminiscent of Seattles market place. Always such a pleasure to visit. Hopefully Wenatchee will take from Seattles long running success and be able to incorporate the kind of variety in food, craft, color and ethnicity. Looking forward to my next visit to Wenatchees great new attraction. >>> Sincerely >>> Richard Vance <<<

We love Pybus. The atmosphere is cool, they always have something going on from decorations to bands and vendors with their arts and crafts beside the awesome merchants with variety. Always clean facilities. Its also near the river and walking path. Our faves are the olive oil/balsamic vinegar store, teas next door and meat market at the opposite end where we just bought 3 dozen oysters, thick steaks and lobster kabobs. We were able to grab some garlic at the produce stand next door. Cant wait to grill tonight! Thanks Wenatchee for this fantastic market!

Pybus is a breath of fresh air for the Wenatchee Valley. There is always something going on all year down at Pybus. With all of the restraint and small local vendor choices you can spend part of your day down here and enjoy every minute. It is situated right by the river and is on the Wenatchee Loop Trail as well which makes it a good pit stop when boating on the Columbia or if you are out on the loop. If you are in Wenatchee or any of the nearby areas it is definitely worth a stop or visit.

The Pybus Public Market is absolutely a fabulous market. We have been weekly visitors here since it opened. The shops and restaurants here are first rate and rivals Seattles Pike Place Market in quality, charm and views! Make sure to stopby on Saturdays during the late spring and summer months to take advantage of all the local produce, music, vendors and artists that fill up around the outside of the market in addition to the inside markets vendors, restaurants etc!

When I saw the building for the market I thought I was at the wrong place, but when I walked in I was so happy to see it was not as boring as it seemed from the outside. There were many places to eat and shop. I stopped to have some amazing mango gelato and lemon sorbetto at Ice. I was upset that I had already had a meal before stumbling upon this place. The restaurants seem like they would have been a lot better than Taco Time chips and salsa.

fun little market. Not much to it.. its a small little indoor market.... like an old/modern metal barn. The only thing Id update is the bathroom doors... I LOVE eco friendly items in the restroom (air dryers, motion faucets and flush)... but HATE to have to grab my shirt to grab the handle to get out. :| Saloon door or corner setup with no door.

What can I say, the market is one of the best places to go in Wenatchee, any night of the week. We attend the Saturday market for fresh local produce and love to eat at the Bistro while theres live music playing. Great place for small families or big. Dont miss out, check out Pybus Market!

Its a different way to see the changes in Wenatchee. For pass through visitors it is a sample the younger adults seem to look for. It has a style about it that brings in the older generation too. Lots of food options, and good for less serious business lunches.

Great spot to spend the day. Lots of boutique shops and fun restaurants. A farmers market blooms with produce during harvest season. Right next to walking trails along the river, its a great spot to grab a bite or a beer after your workout.

Pybus is is a crown jewell for Wenatchee. Permanent home of the farmers market. Several places to eat. A few small shops. A place for community events. A modern day mall. Must visit when in Wenatchee. Right next to Riverfront Park.

Best selection of restaurants and shopping in Wenatchee. Feels like an indoor farmers market. We make a point to stop here any time we are east of the mountains. Its worth driving here from Leavenworth for the dining options alone.

Not quite "bustling" with activity every day, but an involved community and prime food/drink bring in the regulars. There are always events going on, and the community kitchen seems great though I have yet to use it myself.
