With more than two dozen different food vendors (not counting an olive oil purveyor and flower shop), the Chicago French Market is a beast. Over the past couple months, we’ve tried every stand in the Ogilvie Transportation Center eatery to determine where you should go on your next lunch break—or where to pick up dinner before heading home on the train. In the mood for crepes? Banh mi? Burgers? Pretzels and beer? The French Market has it all.
But all stands are not created equal. We’ve also picked our five favorites overall—Frietkoten Belgian Fries & Beer, Fumare Meats, Pastoral, RAW and Vanille Patisserie. Read on for our reviews. Even if you are not a Metra commuter, there are plenty of reasons to hit this West Loop food hub.
