Amazing, we loved our vegan sandwiches at Union Market! It's a groovy spot with outdoor seating on a patio (mostly/partially shaded) and indoor bar/eating area. They also have a little grocery section with a good selection of wine, beer, chocolates, and other basics. They also have a good variety of menu of options that can cater to plant-based folks like us - we opted for the vegan TLT and vegan mushroom philly and both delicious! The flavor profiles were pretty on point, but the sandwich bread really stood out - they had just the right crunch-to-soft ratio The staff are also lovely - they helped me pick from the options and were very knowledgeable about the menu - good vibes all around and definitely worth stopping by if you want to enjoy a casual meal with great food and drinks. Pro-tip: you can also order to-go and walk over to the Jefferson park to enjoy an easy picnic with a stunning view of the city read more

Ordered a TLT (tofu, lettuce, tomato) and a chicken soup, and they were delicious! Went on a Saturday at noon, so naturally it was crowded. It was a beautiful day though and their patio was the perfect spot to enjoy my beverage while waiting for our food. read more

Union Market - U.M. CHEESESTEAK - Sandwiches Near Me - Richmond, Virginia

Came here for lunch with my wife a couple weeks ago and finally got to try this place. She got a salad and I got a sandwich. The salad was really big and the sandwich wasn't bad. My wife liked this place way more than I did. Food was good but I didn't think it was anything too special. The salad tasted great, for a salad. The sandwich wasn't bad but it wasn't anything too special, something that could be thrown together at home. I'll probably get dragged back here by my wife and I won't complain about it, but it wouldn't be somewhere I'd send someone to if they were visiting the city or anything. Good place for a light lunch though. read more

Concept is super cool. Food is good! But. Every time I've been there and eaten outside the flies are relentless so that's gross. Surely something they could try to do. Then when you are finished eating and you go to bus your table there are lots of flies hanging at that area as you are cleaning plates off and putting in bins so that's also not an ideal way to wrap up your meal. read more

One of THE best sandwiches I have ever had in my life! I cannot wait to come back. Union market is smack dab in the middle of a peaceful neighborhood. The vibes were homey, friendly, and warm. So many options for food & drink. And the beautiful cashier couldn't have been sweeter, you could tell she loved her job! read more

Spendy, but generous portions of good food. Get the hummus plate, for sure! Note to management: you have one employee with such overwhelming body odor that I actually went off my food for a bit and had to leave my table to wash my nose out. Not a sentence I have ever written before in my life. read more

Excellent service on a Monday night. Their salad portions are HUGE and an excellent value. My wife always gets the Greek with chicken . Their dressing is on point. I've had the Ruben in the past. Delicious! But this time I got their Philly with the works. You will not be disappointed. I believe their fresh rolls are from MD. The tanginess of the pepper relish was amazing and I bumped it with some Riveracha sauce. We ate inside at one of the high tables. There's plenty of artwork to enjoy and shopping on the other side for beet, wine, food, sauces. read more

Cozy Cafe and Bar with Consistently Reliable Deli Food! I simply love dining at this cafe whenever I visit Richmond. The restaurant also has a small grocery store with neighborhood bodega vibes, and I enjoy walking around the store while waiting for my food. Guests can order outside at the walk-up counter, over the phone, or in person. The staff is friendly and works efficiently. I ordered their BLT, which comes with Applewood-smoked bacon, tomato, green leaf lettuce, and my favorite roasted garlic Duke's mayo. I always ask for extra mayo and get it on their gluten-free bread option. I also ordered extra bacon because I love it, and they provide a generous amount.In an effort to be slightly healthy, I usually opt for the salad instead of the chips, which comes with a nice vinaigrette. read more

I love Union Market! Their food is so flavorful and tastes fresh. The outside seating area is so lovely, but it can get quite cramped indoors. The servers I've had here have been friendly. My favorite menu items are the UMGC and the white bean arugula salad. I also got the pastrami sandwich (smoked gouda, kimchi, Russian dressing) with turkey which was very tasty. The smoked salmon salad was good, too, but the potatoes and beets were a little under done. read more

Ordered the pick two with half the Reuben (no cheese) and smoked salmon salad. Both blew me away! The smoked salmon was absolutely delicious and I love how the corned beef was chopped finely. We sat outside on the spacious patio and ordered at the window. The wait time was short and staff friendly! 10/10 would eat here again read more

Located in Church Hill, Union Market has a charming little restaurant and small grocery store. My parents and I enjoyed a quick dinner together. We ordered tuna melts and a salmon salad. I loved the tuna melts because it had a great balance between the cheese and tuna, which paired nicely. The salmon salad on the other hand tasted fresh and crunchy - still delicious. The food portions are plentiful, you can pick a side chips or a side salad. The staff was wonderful, friendly, and helpful with suggestions. It's one of our favorite spots in town :) Any sandwich on their menu is definitely worth trying! read more

Sometimes during the week it can take a long time to wait for your food like 30-45 minutes but the food is very worth the wait I highly recommend this place especially if you're trying to be healthy read more

Great sandwich and salad. Excellent beer choices. Nice outdoor area to sit. Bar tender was very pleasant. The store was nice. You should go there! read more

Quaint, and easy going vibes. The Market is a good place to pick up a bottle of wine or two. The food was very amazing, some good Vegetarian selections, the beer selection was a bit limited like to see devils backbone, or some other lager. They do have Athletic in a can which is a nice change of pace beer and a good NA if you're driving and want to pair something hoppy with thier food. The outside patio on a nice day is a nice place for lunch as well. read more

Love. This. Place. The food and drinks are always great, and the bartender always stops by to chat, which is so nice. The outdoor dining area is great during warm weather days. Honorable mention: all of the salad dressings are phenomenal. read more

My favorite place to get a Cuban sandwich! Love the gluten free options. Great little place in the middle of a quaint neighborhood!

It was recommended we try this place by a friend, and it was a pleasant surprise! A quaint sandwich shop situated on a small (really small) triangular block in the Church Hill district. Seating could be found both inside and out. And there was a walkup window for ease of ordering. And the food? Really good. I was feeling like a simple BLT and they delivered. Exactly what I was looking for. And ... they have gluten free bread (which is an important option for my wife)! For my GF friends, my wife says it was better than average. I look forward to coming back. read more

Stopped by for lunch. Very busy but they were friendly and got the food out quickly. Amazing food and love the outdoor and indoor seating setup. Definitely a place to stop if you are looking for a great sub/sandwich. read more

Short review with no picture since I ate the sandwich before I thought about reviewing it, and plenty of other people have reviewed it, and I find their reviews to be very consistent to what I'm going to say. This is a neat little sandwich shop located in the Church Hill section of Richmond. The menu is relatively simple with a lot of locally sourced products. I found the pricing to be reasonable and they have a beautiful little patio where you can sit outside. They have a really neat breakfast menu as well, but we got there too late for that. Seriously, give this place a shot. You will not be disappointed. read more

One of my favorite lunch spots! You really can't go wrong with anything on the menu but my all time favorite is the chicken tarragon sandwich. It's a wonderful combination of textures and sweet/savory flavors. They have lots of outdoor seating and some indoor. It's a great place to study or read a book. Wifi is available. They are busy during peak lunch hours so I would recommend online ordering in advance if you're doing take out. The little market is also nice for other beverage and snacks options. read more

I was so excited to try union market after seeing the cute outdoor seating area. I went the other day when the weather was lovely out, and there was plenty of outdoor seating under the umbrellas. We opted to get our food to go, so we checked out the goods inside the market itself while we waited! They had so many fun things from gourmet pastas, to craft beers, and other convenience store type items. After waiting not too much longer, we got our food. I was so excited to try the sandwich. I loved how many vegetarian options there were! This was completely vegan, even subbing mayonnaise with vegan mayo. It was delicious. I ate every bite and I loved that we could get chips or greens as the side! It wasn't too pricy either. My boyfriend loved his sandwich too. read more

Union market is delicious every single visit. No matter what you order you will not be disappointed. This time we sat outside on their lovely patio that also had a rain cover. Plenty of space between the tables and they had a QR code on each table so you could view the full menu. Their menu is also posted by their patio window where you can order food. It's your choice to order via your phone or with a mask at the window. You can order food to go or eat outside at one of their many tables. This visit I got the Reuben sandwich which was super flavorful. Not too much of a single ingredient. It melded together perfectly. I enjoyed their pasta salad on the side. A bit of forewarning that I believe it had some jalapeño in it so a little spicy, but not super hot. I would get it again. The last time I came here I had their smoked salmon which was equally delicious. They also have a daily special that they'll feature. No matter what you're in the mood for you can find something you'll enjoy. Don't forget to check out the market portion where you can find locally made snacks, drinks, and other merchandise. My favorite things to pick up are the Nightingale ice cream sandwiches, King of Pops popsicles, and Ninja Kombucha. I got the s'mores sandwich, blackberry ginger lemon popsicle, and lemon ginger kombucha to bring home. If you haven't been, be sure to stop by Union Market! read more

I was in Virginia for a quick trip and found the Union market to be very helpful and adorable! It has a market portion has to go to snack, drinks (alcoholic & not), things to make a spread, and lots of local treats. The café portion of the market had a walk up window to order food and drinks. They had a great breakfast menu and also a lunch menu. Drinks were available all day! The breakfast burrito was so big and inexpensive! It was stuffed with delicious cheeses, beans, and egg (meat could have been added). The bloody Mary had lots of pickle juice in it and the Mimosa had several flavors available! This is an awesome market that I couldn't wait to eat it again! read more

A vegan's heaven if you are craving comfort food. I hardly ever get to just grab a sandwich and feel confident I don't have to nitpick and substitute or pull a bunch of things off. I could visit Union Market a thousand times and never tire of their menu. I love the "Pick 2" option as the portion sizes are not skimpy. The TLT sandwich - the vegan tofu version of a classic BLT - is absolutely delicious! And I love pairing it with the chopped salad. Great place to grab lunch with a friend on their patio or curbside seating. read more

I decided to check out Union Market because a few years back they posted on Facebook a sandwich called the Pastrami Bomb with pimento cheese but of course it was a special and wasn't available on the menu so I opted for the pastrami and let me tell you it did not disappoint. It has grilled pastrami or tempeh, kimchi slaw, smoked Gouda with homemade Russian dressing on Billy bread and it was the best sandwich I've ever tasted! The kimchi took the sandwich up two notches.... If you are ever in Churchill I would highly recommend checking them out. PS.... topped this off with a Great Lakes lager read more

Such a great place! We came on a Saturday morning for breakfast sandwiches (we ordered at 10:58 and they had a hard stop for ordering breakfast at 11)! They warned us it would take about 40 mins to get our food, but we enjoyed our coffee on the patio and didn't mind the wait at all! All of their food is locally sourced, affordable, and delicious! They also have a great selection of mimosas, draft beer and wine! read more
