Marion Barry Avenue Market

Marion Barry Avenue Market & Café is more than a grocery store—it’s a community-centered space designed to nourish, connect, and empower. Located in Ward 8, where access to fresh, healthy food is limited, our market brings together locally sourced produce, pantry essentials, ready-made meals, and unique finds—all thoughtfully curated to support healthier living. Through the app, you can explore our seasonal food bar, order from our open kitchen, and shop for everyday essentials with ease. Stay updated on cooking classes, nutrition workshops, and community events hosted in our demo kitchen—created to inspire education and connection through food. We proudly invest in the local economy by hiring within the community and partnering with local farmers and producers, so you always know where your food comes from. Whether you're grabbing a quick bite, shopping for your family, or connecting with neighbors, Marion Barry Avenue Market & Café is your destination for food, culture, and community
