Small shops, not shopping malls

Retail in the North End is small and mostly about food. Hanover Street and Salem Street have bakeries, small grocery stores and specialty food shops, where the work is serving at the counter, stocking shelves, packing orders and running the register. Weekends and the holiday season bring extra shifts, above all at the bakeries.

On Fridays and Saturdays the Haymarket stalls set up along Blackstone Street, at the neighborhood’s edge, with fruit and vegetable vendors outside and specialty grocers in the building beside them. For chain and department stores, Downtown Crossing is a walk across the Greenway or an Orange Line ride from Haymarket.
