Reading Terminal Market is a general market in downtown Philadelphia, in operation since 1892. It holds a large number of independent stands under one roof, so a single visit can cover groceries, prepared meals, and specialty goods without leaving the building.
The market is built around food. Stands sell foods from a wide range of cuisines and origins, ranging from raw ingredients to ready-to-eat meals. The variety is the point here: rather than one kitchen or one grocer, you are choosing among many separate vendors, each with its own counter. That suits a visitor who wants options in one trip, or who is comparing several sources for the same kind of item.
A defined area of the market is the "Pennsylvania Dutch" section, with ten Amish and Mennonite vendors. Amish homemade goods are available here. If those goods are the reason for your visit, head to this section specifically rather than browsing the whole floor, since the vendors are grouped together rather than spread across the market.
Payment is cash or check. Individual stands set their own practices, so carry enough cash for the vendors you plan to buy from. Hours are not listed here; check the market's current schedule before you go, as the building houses many separate businesses that may keep different times.
