On the last day of 2023, a new food hall and market celebrated its soft opening in the heart of downtown Clearwater. 

Cleveland Street Market at 949 Cleveland St. is Tampa Bay’s newest food hall, and its  official grand opening is slated for sometime in February.

Currently, Cleveland Street Market boasts five different concepts, but will eventually be home to over 20, according to its social media. Its first wave of tenants include: Deja Brew Cafe, Tap Haus on Cleveland, Top Nosh Street Food, Jersey Dogs and the second location of fusion spot The Smokin’ Cuban, which took home first place at Ybor City's annual Cuban Sandwich Festival last year.

Between the handful of tenants currently open at Cleveland Street Market, patrons can indulge in everything from loaded mac and cheese and New Jersey-style hot dogs to unique Cuban-BBQ fusion dishes like smoked flan and build-your-own bowls with espresso-rubbed brisket and mojo pork.

In addition to its large dining room where patrons of every food stall can chow down, Clearwater's new food hall also offers a pet-friendly patio, two TopGolf swing suites, a variety of beer on tap from its resident brewpub and an event space for private parties. It will eventually host live music as well.

According to its website, the new food hall currently collaborates with Destination Cleveland, a tourism website for the Midwestern city. “With its modern architectural design, the Cleveland Street Market stands as a testament to the community's spirit, beckoning residents and visitors alike to come together and immerse themselves in the unique culture of Cleveland, OH,” the food hall’s website reads.
